Metal Applications
When using the tool in metal applications, make sure that a
residual current device (RCD) has been inserted to avoid residual
risks caused by metalswarf.
If the power supply is shut off by the RCD, take the tool to an
authorised DeWALT repairagent.

WARNING: In extreme working conditions, conductive
dust can accumulate inside the machine housing when
working with metal. This can result in the protective
insulation in the machine becoming degraded with a
potential risk of an electricalshock.
To avoid build‑up of metal swarf inside the machine, we
recommend to clear the ventilation slots on a daily basis. Refer
toMaintenance.
Using Flap Discs

WARNING: Metal dust build‑up. Extensive use of flap
discs in metal applications can result in the increased
potential for electric shock. To reduce this risk, insert an
RCD before use and clean the ventilation slots daily by
blowing dry compressed air into the ventilation slots
inaccordance with the below maintenanceinstructions.
D
Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of the main housing
with dry air as often as dirt is seen collecting in and around
the air vents. Wear approved eye protection and approved
dust mask when performing thisprocedure.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals
for cleaning the non‑metallic parts of the tool. These
chemicals may weaken the materials used in these parts.
Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap.
