WALT chargers require no adjustment and are designed to be
as easy as possible to operate.
Electrical Safety
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only.
Always check that the battery pack voltage corresponds to the
voltage on the rating plate. Also make sure that the voltage of
your charger corresponds to that of your mains.
Your D
e
WALT charger is double insulated in
accordance with EN60335; therefore no earth wire
is required.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
• Impairment of hearing.
• Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
• Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
• Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a
specially prepared cord available through the
D
e
WALT
service organisation.
Mains Plug Replacement
(U.K. & Ireland Only)
If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:
• Safely dispose of the old plug.
• Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in the plug.
• Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.
WARNING: No connection is to be made to the
earth terminal.
Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good quality plugs.
Recommended fuse: 3 A.
Using an Extension Cable
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. Use an approved extension cable suitable for
the power input of your charger (see
Technical Data ). The
minimum conductor size is 1 mm 2 ; the maximum length
is 30 m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.

boosters that would cause the tool to be driven at speeds
greater than its rated speed constitutes misuse.
• Do not use circular saw blades with this tool. Serious
injury may result.
• Avoid bouncing the wheel or giving it rough treatment.
If this occurs, stop the tool and inspect the wheel for cracks
or flaws.
• Direct sparks away from operator, bystanders or
flammable materials.
Sparks may be produced while using
a sander, grinder, or wall chaser. Sparks may cause burns or
start fires.
• Always use front handle. The front handle should always be
used to maintain control of the tool at all times.
• Never cut into area that may contain electrical wiring or
piping.
Serious injury may result.
• Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy use.
Dust and grit containing metal particles often accumulate on
interior surfaces and could create an electric shock hazard.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time.
Vibration caused by tool action may be harmful to your
hands and arms.
Use gloves to provide extra cushion and
limit exposure by taking frequent rest periods.
• Dust, crystalline material, vapor and smoke may be
produced while working.
Always wear a dust mask or
respiratory protection. Danger for health!
• Never install more than two diamond blades.
• Use only diamond-tipped cutting discs. Segmented
diamond wheels may only have negative cutting angles and
slots between the segments to a maximum of 10 mm.
