How to Lubricate a Dewalt Compound Miter

1. Gather your tools and materials. You will need:

* A can of spray lubricant

* A rag

* A screwdriver

2. Prepare your miter saw. Turn off the power and unplug the saw. Remove the blade guard and the blade.

3. Locate the lubrication points. There are four lubrication points on a Dewalt compound miter saw:

* The worm gear

* The bevel gear

* The miter gear

* The arbor

4. Apply lubricant to the lubrication points. Hold the can of spray lubricant about 6 inches away from the saw and spray a small amount of lubricant onto each lubrication point.

5. Wipe off any excess lubricant. Use the rag to wipe off any excess lubricant from the saw.

6. Reassemble the saw. Replace the blade and the blade guard. Plug in the saw and turn on the power.

Your Dewalt compound miter saw is now lubricated and ready to use.

Tips for Lubricating a Dewalt Compound Miter

* Lubricate the saw regularly. The frequency with which you should lubricate your saw depends on how often you use it. A good rule of thumb is to lubricate the saw after every 10 hours of use.

* Use a high-quality lubricant. A high-quality lubricant will provide better protection for your saw and will last longer.

* Avoid using too much lubricant. Too much lubricant can attract dust and debris, which can damage the saw.

By following these tips, you can help keep your Dewalt compound miter saw in good working order for many years to come.
