the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the
specified range may damage the battery and
increase the risk of fire.
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.
b ) Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be
performed by the manufacturer or authorized
service providers.
Safety Instructions for All Operations
• Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure
to noise can cause hearing loss.
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory or the fastener may contact hidden
wiring. Cutting accessory or the fastener contacting a
“live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool “live” and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Safety Instructions When Using
Long Drill Bits
• Never operate at higher speed than the maximum
speed rating of the drill bit. At higher speeds, the bit
is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without
contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
• Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit
tip in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds,
the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely
without contacting the workpiece, resulting in
personal injury.
• Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do
not apply excessive pressure. Bits can bend causing
breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal
injury.
Additional Safety Warnings for Drills
• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against your body is unstable
and may lead to loss of control.
• Accessories and tool may get hot during operation.
Wear gloves when handling them if performing heat
producing applications such as drilling metals.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
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
Chargers
DeWALT 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 DeWALT charger is double insulated in
accordance with EN60335; therefore no
earth wire is required.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a
specially prepared cord available through the DeWALT
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.
