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 upright on the battery pack but may be easily
knockedover.
• Make sure the lanyard is properly secure at each end prior
touse.
• Inspect tool and lanyard before each use for damage and
proper function (including fabric and stitching). Do not use if
damaged or not functioningproperly.
• Do not alter the lanyard attachment point or use in a
manner other than as instructed in thismanual.
• Only attach tool to a lanyard with a locking carabiner. Do
not attach by looping or knotting the lanyard. Do not use rope
orcord.
• Electrical shock hazard. Be sure power is off when working in
high voltage areas. Some lanyards areconductive.
• Dropped tools will swing on the lanyard, which could cause
injury or loss ofbalance.
• Do not carry the tool by the attachment point, the battery
strap or thelanyard.
• Do not attach more than one tool to eachlanyard.
• Only use appropriate DeWALT brand lanyard‑
ready attachment kit. NEVER modify tools to create
attachmentpoints.
• Only transfer the tool between hands while properly
balanced in a stableorientation.
• Do not attach lanyards to tool in a way that keeps guards,
switches or lock‑offs from operatingproperly.
• Avoid getting tangled in thelanyard.
• Keep lanyard away from the cutting area of thetool.
• Do not use lanyards or attachment devices to get additional
leverage from thetool.
• Do not use for personal fallprotection.
• Falling object hazard! Only change batteries, accessories
and attachments where a dropped object won't cause a
hazard below you. Consult your Authority Having Jurisdiction
(AHJ) or site supervisor for procedures for working atheight.
• Do not use the charger or contractor bag atheight.
• Use multi‑action or screw gate type carabiners. Do not use
single action spring clip carabiners.
The lanyard-ready attachment kit is intended for use by
competent personnel who are trained and knowledgeable
regarding working with tools in and around machinery
and "at height". A lanyard-ready attachment kit may only
be added to certain models and must be installed by an
authorized servicecenter.
The lanyard attachment point
16
is for attaching
appropriate lanyards with locking carabiner ends for use
at height, 6.5 ft (2 m) maximum length, rated for at least
the weight identified on the tool lanyard attachment point
label. Refer to FigureB.
Installing the Battery Strap Carabiner to the
Lanyard Attachment Point

WARNING: DO NOT attach the lanyard to the battery
strap. Lanyards should only be attached to the lanyard
attachment point.

Safety Warnings Specific for Use at Height

WARNING:
• Only use batteries that contain the integral battery strap.
Do not use unsecured batteries while the tool is tethered.
Unsecured batteries may detach from the tool if dropped.
• If the tool is dropped for any reason, the lanyard attachment
point and battery strap components must be inspected and
properly serviced prior to re‑use. The lanyard attachment
point is designed to stretch to absorb the shock of a drop. Any
permanent stretch to the device exposing the red marked
internal coils indicates it has been compromised and must be
serviced prior to reuse.
• Always keep the tool and accessories tethered when
working "at height". (Maximum lanyard length: 6.5 ft [2m].)
• Use only with lanyards appropriate for this tool type and
rated for at least the weight identified on the tool lanyard
attachment point label.
• Crush, cut or entanglement hazard. Do not use near moving
parts, mechanisms or runningmachinery.
• Do not anchor the tool lanyard to anything on your body.
Anchor to a rigid structure that can withstand the forces of a
droppedtool.
