• Store an idle laser out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Lasers are
dangerous in the hands of untrainedusers.
• Tool service MUST be performed by qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may result in injury. To locate your nearest
DeWALT service center go to www.DeWALT.com.
• Do not use optical tools such as atelescope or transit to view the laser beam.
Serious eye injury could result.
• Do not place the laser in aposition which may cause anyone to intentionally or
unintentionally stare into the laser beam. Serious eye injury couldresult.
• Do not position the laser near areflective surface which may reflect the laser beam
toward anyone'seyes. Serious eye injury couldresult.
• Turn the laser off when it is not in use. Leaving the laser on increases the risk of staring
into the laserbeam.
• Do not modify the laser in any way. Modifying the tool may result in hazardous laser
radiationexposure.
• Do not operate the laser around children or allow children to operate the laser.
Serious eye injury mayresult.
• Do not remove or deface warning labels. If labels are removed, the user or others may
inadvertently expose themselves toradiation.
• Position the laser securely on alevel surface. If the laser falls, damage to the laser or
serious injury couldresult.
Personal Safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the laser. Do
not use the laser when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
Amoment of inattention while operating the laser may result in serious personalinjury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance
enables better control of the tool in unexpectedsituations.
• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Depending on the work
conditions, wearing protective equipment such as adust mask, non‑skid safety shoes, hard
hat, and hearing protection will reduce personalinjury.
Tool Use and Care
• Do not use the laser if the Power/Transport Lock switch does not turn the laser on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must berepaired.
