General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all 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 energizing 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 jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry 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.
Additional Specifi c Safety Rules
•
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation
where the fastener may contact hidden wiring.
Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.

Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS:
This manual contains important safety and operating
instructions for battery chargers.
• Before using the charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on the charger,
battery pack and product using the battery pack.
WARNING:
Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shock
may result.
CAUTION:
Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only D
E
WALT rechargeable
battery packs. Other types of batteries may overheat and burst resulting in personal injury and
property damage.
NOTICE:
Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the charger
can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature, such as, but not
limited to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil or any buildup of metallic particles
should be kept away from the charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply
when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean.
WARNING:
•
DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones
in this manual.
The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.
•
These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging D
E
WALT
rechargeable batteries.
Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or
electrocution.
•
Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
•
Pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger.
This will reduce
the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord.
•
Make sure that the 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 charger outdoors, always provide a dry location and 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 least the minimum
wire size. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.
