General
1 Keep work area clean
Cluttered areas and benches can cause
accidents.
2 Consider work area environment
Do not expose power tools to humidity. Keep
work area well lit. Do not use power tools in the
presence of flammable liquids or gases.
3 Guard against electric shock
Prevent body contact with earthed surfaces (e.g.
pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators).
For use under extreme conditions (e.g. high
humidity, when metal swarf is being produced,
etc.) electric safety can be improved by inserting
an isolating transformer or a (FI) earth-leakage
circuit-breaker.
4 Keep children away
Do not let children come into contact with the
tool or extension cord. Supervision is required for
those under 16 years of age.
5 Use appropriate tool
The intended use is described in this instruction
manual. Do not force small tools or attachments
to do the job of a heavy-duty tool. The tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
was intended.
Warning! The use of any accessory or attachment
or performance of any operation with this tool,
other than those recommended in this instruction
manual may present a risk of personal injury.
6 Maintain tools with care
Keep the tools in good condition and clean for
better and safer performance. Follow the
instructions for maintenance and changing
accessories. Inspect the tool cords at regular
intervals and, if damaged, have them repaired by
an authorized DEWALT repair agent. Keep all
controls dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
7 Store idle tools
When not in use, power tools must be stored in a
dry place and locked up securely, out of reach of
children.
8 Check for damaged parts
Before using the tool, carefully check it for
damage to ensure that it will operate properly
and perform its intended function. Check for
misalignment and seizure of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other conditions that
may affect its operation. Have damaged guards
or other defective parts repaired or replaced as
instructed.
Do not use the tool if the switch is defective.
Have the switch replaced by an authorized
DEWALT repair agent.
9 Remove the batteries
Remove the batteries when not in use, before

Additional safety instructions for rotary lasers
• This laser complies with class 2 according to
EN 60825-1:1994+A11. Do not replace a laser
diode with a different type. If damaged, have the
laser repaired by an authorised repair agent.
• Do not use the laser for any purpose other than
projecting laser lines.
An exposure of the eye to the beam of a class
2 laser is considered safe for a maximum of
0.25 seconds. Eyelid reflexes will normally
provide adequate protection. At distances over
1 m, the laser complies with class 1 and thus is
considered completely safe.
• Never look into the laser beam directly and
intentionally.
• Do not use optical tools to view the laser beam.
• Do not set up the tool at a position where the
laser beam can cross any person at head height.
• Do not let children come in contact with the
laser.
