ENGLISH
Goods; International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations,
International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Regulations, and the European Agreement
Concerning The International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR). Lithium‑ion
cells and batteries have been tested to section 38.3of the UN Recommendations on the
Transport of Dangerous Goods Manual of Tests andCriteria.
In most instances, shipping a DeWALT battery pack will be excepted from being classified
as a fully regulated Class 9Hazardous Material. In general, only shipments containing a
lithium‑ion battery with an energy rating greater than 100Watt Hours (Wh) will require
being shipped as fully regulated Class 9. All lithium‑ion batteries have the Watt Hour
rating marked on the pack. Furthermore, due to regulation complexities, DeWALT does not
recommend air shipping lithium‑ion battery packs alone regardless of Watt Hour rating.
Shipments of tools with batteries (combo kits) can be air shipped as excepted if the Watt
Hour rating of the battery pack is no greater than 100Wh.
Regardless of whether a shipment is considered excepted or fully regulated, it is the
shipper's responsibility to consult the latest regulations for packaging, labeling/marking
and documentationrequirements.
The information provided in this section of the manual is provided in good faith and

Transporting the FLEXVOLT
TM
Battery
The DeWALT FLEXVOLT
TM
battery has two modes: Use andTransport.
Use Mode: When the FLEXVOLT
TM
battery stands alone or is in a DeWALT 18V product, it
will operate as an 18V battery. When the FLEXVOLT
TM
battery is in a 54V or a 108V (two 54V
batteries) product, it will operate as a 54Vbattery.
Transport Mode: When the cap is attached to the FLEXVOLT
TM
battery, the battery is in
Transport mode. Keep the cap forshipping.
When in Transport mode, strings of cells are electrically
disconnected within the pack resulting in 3batteries with a
lower Watt hour (Wh) rating as compared to 1battery with
a higher Watt hour rating. This increased quantity of
3batteries with the lower Watt hour rating can exempt the pack from certain shipping
regulations that are imposed upon the higher Watt hour batteries.
For example, the Transport Wh rating might
indicate 3x36Wh, meaning 3batteries of 36Wh
each. The Use Wh rating might indicate 108Wh
(1batteryimplied).
