General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and instructions Failure to follow the warnings

and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS

FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or

battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) WORK AREA SAFETY

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence

of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite

the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions

can cause you to lose control.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do

not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified

plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,

ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is

earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool

will increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging

the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for

outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric

shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault

circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of

electric shock.

3) PERSONAL SAFETY

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a

power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of

drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools

may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective

equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection

used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before

connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that

have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench

or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal

injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables

better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing

and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be

caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection

facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection

can reduce dust-related hazards.

4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.

The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was

designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool

that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the

power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing

power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power

tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons

unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,

breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s

operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents

are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp

cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these

instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be

performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could

result in a hazardous situation.

5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is

suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another

battery pack.

b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any

other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper

clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a

connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together

may cause burns or a fire.

d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid

contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,

additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation

or burns.

6) SERVICE

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical

replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

The following are trademarks for one or more DEWALT power tools: the yellow and black color scheme; the “D”

shaped air intake grill; the array of pyramids on the handgrip; the kit box configuration; and the array of lozenge-

shaped humps on the surface of the tool.

Additional Specific Safety Rules

• Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation

where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a

“live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a

stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and

may lead to loss of control.

• Keep hands away from moving parts. Never place your hands near the cutting area.

• Use extra caution when cutting overhead and pay particular attention to overhead

wires which may be hidden from view. Anticipate the path of falling branches and

debris ahead of time.

• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by the operating

action of this tool may cause permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use gloves to

provide extra cushion, take frequent rest periods, and limit daily time of use.

WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses.

Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED

SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),

• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,

• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other

construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other

reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work.

To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with

approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter

out microscopic particles.

• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,

and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed

areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin

may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.

WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious

and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory

protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI

S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this

product may contribute to hearing loss.

CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable surface where it will

not cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will stand

The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. Before using the battery pack and

charger, read the safety instructions below. Then follow charging procedures outlined.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

• Do not charge or use battery in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence

of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the battery from the charger

may ignite the dust or fumes.

• NEVER force battery pack into charger. DO NOT modify battery pack in any way

to fit into a non-compatible charger as battery pack may rupture causing serious

personal injury. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of batteries

and chargers.

• Charge the battery packs only in D

EWALT chargers.

• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.

• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature

may reach or exceed 105°F (40˚C) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in

summer).

DANGER: Electrocution hazard. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason.

If battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into charger. Do not crush, drop or

damage battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow,

been dropped, run over or damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer,

stepped on). Electric shock or electrocution may result. Damaged battery packs should be

returned to service center for recycling.

NOTE: Battery storage and carrying caps are provided for use whenever the

battery is out of the tool or charger. Remove cap before placing battery in

charger or tool.

WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so that metal

objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not

place battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose

nails, screws, keys, etc. without battery cap. Transporting batteries can possibly cause

fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials

such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation

Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce

or on airplanes (i.e., packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage) UNLESS they are properly

protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the

battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and

cause a short circuit.

SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR NICKEL CADMIUM (NiCd) OR NICKEL

METAL HYDRIDE (NiMH)

• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely

worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire.

• A small leakage of liquid from the battery pack cells may occur under extreme

usage or temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure.

However, if the outer seal is broken:

a. and the battery liquid gets on your skin, immediately wash with soap and water for

several minutes.

b. and the battery liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum

of 10 minutes and seek immediate medical attention. (Medical note: The liquid is

25-35% solution of potassium hydroxide.)

SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM ION (LI-ION)

• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely

worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created

when lithium ion battery packs are burned.

• If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with

mild soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for

15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte

is composed of a mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.

• Contents of opened battery cells may cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air.

If symptoms persists, seek medical attention.

WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.

Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important safety and operating

instruc tions for battery chargers.

• Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on charger, battery

pack, and product using battery pack.

DANGER: Electrocution hazard. 120 volts are present at charging terminals. Do not probe

with conductive objects. Electric shock or electrocution may result.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may

result.

CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only DEWALT rechargeable

batteries. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.

CAUTION: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the power supply, the

exposed charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign

materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any

buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the

charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger

before attempting to clean.

• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in

this manual. The charger and batter y pack are specifically designed to work together.

• These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging D

EWALT

rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or

electrocution.

• Do not expose charger to rain or snow.

• Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger. This will reduce risk of

damage to electric plug and cord.

• Make sure that cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or

otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely necessary. Use of improper

extension cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution.

• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor

use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge)

for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the

cable, that is 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause

a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than

one extension to make up the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at
