DW913 (9.6 V), DW917 (12 V), DW918 (14.4 V), 
DW919 (18 V)
– Use with DEWALT power packs and chargers (both sold
separately).
NOTE: Your DW913 flexible floodlight operates on a 9.6V power
pack (DW9061 or DW9062). Your DW917 flexible floodlight 
operates on a 12V power pack (DW9071 or DW9072). Your DW918 
flexible floodlight operates on a 14.4V power pack (DW9091). Your 
DW919 flexible floodlight operates on a 18V power pack (DW9095 
or DW9096). Power packs are sold separately.
WARNING: When using electric tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, 
electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:

Safety Rules for Flexible Floodlights
WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE FLASHLIGHT or charger
NEAR FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS OR IN GASEOUS OR EXPLOSIVE 
ATMOSPHERES. INTERNAL SPARKS MAY IGNITE FUMES. Do 
not expose Flexible floodlight or charger to rain or damp areas.
WARNING: Lens and bulb become hot during use.
• During or immediately after use, don’t lay flexible floodlight 
flat on lens surface.
• Don’t touch lens surface when bulb is lit or immediately after 
use.
• Handle flexible floodlight with care around any flammable 
surface.
• If bulb has been lit, let flexible floodlight cool for several minutes before changing bulb. 
Safety Rules for Chargers
1. Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary 
markings on (1) charger, (2) battery pack, and (3) product 
using battery pack.
2. DANGER: Electrocution hazard. 120 volts are present at 
charging terminals. Do not probe with conductive objects. 
3. If battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into 
charger. Danger of electric shock or electrocution.
4. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work 
together. DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any 
chargers other than the ones in this manual.
5. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug 
rather than cord when disconnecting charger.
7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, 
tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely 
necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in risk 
of fire, electric shock, or electrocution. 
9. Two wire cords can be used with 2 or 3 wire extension cords. 
Only round jacketed extension cords should be used, and we 
recommend that they be listed by Underwriters Laboratories 
(U.L.) (C.S.A. in Canada.) The letters WA on the cord jacket 
indicate that the cord is suitable for outdoor use.
10. An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or 
American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is 16 
gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more 
than one extension to make up the total length, be sure each 
individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size.

11. The charger is ventilated through slots in the top and the bottom of the housing. Do not place any object on top of the charger or place the charger on a soft surface that might block the 
ventilation slots and result in excessive internal heat. Place the 
charger in a position away from any heat source.
12. Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug — have
them replaced immediately.
13. Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been
dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to an authorized D
E
WALT service center.
14. Do not disassemble charger; take it to an authorized D
E
WALT 
service center when service or repair is required. Incorrect 
reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution 
or fire.
15. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet 
before attempting any cleaning. Removing the battery pack will 
not reduce this risk.
16. NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
17. DO NOT store or use the tool and battery pack in locations 
where the temperature may reach or exceed 105°F (such as 
outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
18. The charger is designed to operate on standard household 
electrical power (120 volts). Do not attempt to use it on any 
other voltage!
Safety Rules for Batteries
1. Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can explode 
in a fire.
2. A small leakage of liquid from the battery pack cells may occur 
under extreme usage or temperature conditions. This does not 
indicate a failure. However, if the outer seal is broken and this 
leakage gets on your skin: 
a. Wash quickly with soap and water. 
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar. 
c. If battery liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean
water for a minimum of 10 minutes and seek immediate 
medical attention. (Medical note: The liquid is 25-35% 
solution of potassium hydroxide.)
3. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the 
plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, immediately discontinue use and do not recharge.
NOTE: Battery storage and carrying caps are 
provided for use whenever the battery is out of the tool 
or charger. Remove cap before placing battery in charger 
or tool.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so that
metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For
example, do not place battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc. without battery cap. Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires
if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with 
conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the 
like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material
Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in 
commerce or on airplanes (i.e., packed in suitcases and carry-on 
luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. 
So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the
