General Safety Rules – For All Battery Operated Tools
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instruc­tions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords may create a fire.
A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be recharged only with the specified charger for the battery. A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when used with another battery.
Use battery operated tool only with the specifically designed battery pack. Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury,
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or off position before inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack into a tool with the switch on invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and bal- ance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. A tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or off position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such pre­ventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dan­gerous in the hands of untrained users.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like: paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a con­nection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
sparks, burns, or a fire.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other
condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury when used on another tool.
SERVICE
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or mainte­nance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.
Additional Specific Safety Rules
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cut­ting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable surface where it will not
cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright on
the battery pack but may be easily knocked over.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other con-
struction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote
absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
• The label on your tool may include the following symbols. The symbols and their definitions are as follows:
V................volts A ..............amperes
Hz..............hertz W ..............watts
min ............minutes ............alternating current
..........direct current
n
o..............no load speed
..............Class II Construction ..............earthing terminal
..............safety alert symbol .../min........revolutions per minute
Important Safety Instructions for Battery Packs
Your tool uses a DEWALT battery pack. When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure to include catalog number and voltage: Extended Run-Time battery packs deliver more run-time than standard battery packs. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of charg­ers and battery packs.
NOTE: Your tool will accept either standard or Extended Run Time battery packs. However, be sure to select proper voltage. Batteries slowly lose their charge when they are not on the charger, the best place to keep your battery is on the charger at all times.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. Before using the battery pack and charger, read the safety instructions below. Then follow charging procedures outlined.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
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.
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.)
• Charge the battery packs only in D
E
WALT chargers.
DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
• 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).
DANGER: Electrocution hazard. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If
battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into charger. Electric shock or electrocu­tion may result. Damaged battery packs should be returned to service center for recycling.
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 battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
The RBRC™ Seal
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle the bat­tery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by D
EWALT. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium batteries in the
trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an envi­ronmentally conscious alternative.
RBRC™ in cooperation with D
EWALT and other battery users, has established programs in the
United States to facilitate the collection of spent nickel-cadmium batteries. Help protect our envi­ronment and conserve natural resources by returning the spent nickel-cadmium battery to an authorized D
EWALT service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact
your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery.
RBRC™ is a registered trademark of the
Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation.
Important Safety Instructions for Battery Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important safety instructions for battery chargers.
• Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on charger, battery pack, and product using battery pack.
DANGER: Electrocution hazard. 120 volts are present at charging terminals. Do not probe with
conductive objects.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger. CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only D
E
WALT nickel cadmium
rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
CAUTION: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the power supply, the
exposed charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign mate­rials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger before attempting to clean.
DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in this manual. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.
These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging D
E
WALT recharge-
able batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger. This will reduce risk of dam- age to electric plug and cord.
Make sure that cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or other-
wise subjected to damage or stress.
Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely necessary. Use of improper exten- sion cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution.
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.

Do not place any object on top of 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. The charger is ventilated through slots in the top and the bottom of the housing.
Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug — have them replaced immediately.
Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way. Take it to an authorized service center.
Do not disassemble charger; take it to an authorized service center when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.
Disconnect the charger from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. This will reduce the risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.
NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
The charger is designed to operate on standard household electrical power (120 Volts). Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the vehic­ular charger.
Using Automatic Tune-Up™ Mode
The Automatic Tune-Up™ Mode equalizes or balances the individual cells in the battery pack allowing it to function at peak capacity. Battery packs should be tuned up weekly or after 10 charge/discharge cycles or whenever the pack no longer delivers the same amount of work. To use the Automatic Tune-Up™, place the battery pack in the charger and leave it for at least 8 hours. The charger will cycle through the following modes.
1. The red light will blink continuously indicating that the 1-hour charge cycle has started.
2. When the 1-hour charge cycle is complete, the light will stay on continuously and will no longer blink. This indicates that the pack is fully charged and can be used at this time.
3. Whenever the pack is left in the charger after the initial 1-hour charge, the charger will begin the Automatic Tune-Up™ Mode. This mode continues up to 8 hours or until the individual cells in the battery pack are equalized. The battery pack is ready for use and can be removed at any time during the Tune-Up™ Mode.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE
Chargers
Your tool uses a DEWALT charger. Your battery can be charged in DEWALT 1 Hour Chargers, 15 Minute Chargers or Vehicular 12 Volt Charger. Be sure to read all safety instructions before using your charger. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of chargers and battery packs.
Charging Procedure
DANGER: Electrocution hazard. 120 volts are present at charging terminals. Do not probe with
conductive objects.
1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet as shown in Figure 1.
2. Insert the battery pack into the charger. The red (charging) light will blink continuously indi­cating that the charging process has started.
3. The completion of charge will be indicated by the red light remaining ON continuously. The pack is fully charged and may be used at this time or left in the charger.
Indicator Light Operation
Charge Indicators
Some chargers are designed to detect certain problems that can arise with battery packs. Problems are indicated by the red light flashing at a fast rate. If this occurs, re-insert battery pack into the charger. If the problem persists, try a different battery pack to determine if the charger is OK. If the new pack charges correctly, then the original pack is defective and should be returned to a service center or other collection site for recycling. If the new battery pack elicits the same trouble indication as the original, have the charger tested at an authorized ser­vice center.
HOT/COLD PACK DELAY
Some chargers have a Hot/Cold Pack Delay feature: when the charger detects a battery that is hot, it automatically starts a Hot Pack Delay, suspending charging until the battery has cooled. After the battery has cooled, the charger automatically switches to the Pack Charging mode. This feature ensures maximum battery life. The red light flashes long, then short while in the Hot Pack Delay mode.
PROBLEM POWER LINE
Some chargers have a Problem Power Line indicator. When the charger is used with some portable power sources such as generators or sources that convert DC to AC, the charger may temporarily suspend operation, flashing the red light with two fast blinks followed by a
pause. This indicates the power source is out of limits. LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the red light glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery pack fresh and fully charged.
NOTE: A battery pack will slowly lose its charge when kept out of the charger. If the battery pack has not been kept on maintenance charge, it may need to be recharged before use. A battery pack may also slowly lose its charge if left in a charger that is not plugged into an appropriate AC source.
WEAK BATTERY PACKS: Chargers can also detect a weak battery. Such batteries are still usable but should not be expected to perform as much work. In such cases, about 10 seconds after battery insertion, the charger will beep rapidly 8 times to indicate a weak battery condition. The charger will then go on to charge the battery to the highest capacity possible.
Important Charging Notes
1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the air temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.
2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.
3. If the battery pack does not charge properly: a. Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you
turn out the lights.
c. Move charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is
approximately 65°F - 75°F (18°- 24°C).
d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local ser-
vice center.
4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.
5. Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the exposed charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger before attempting to clean.
6. Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger. CAUTION: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the
battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling.
Important!
This product is not user servicable. There are no user servicable parts inside the charger. Servicing at an authorized service center is required to avoid damage to static sensitive internal components.
READ ALL OF THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE BATTERY CHARGER MANUAL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THE BATTERY PACK FOR YOUR TOOL.
Always use correct battery pack (pack supplied with tool or replacement pack exactly like it.) Never install any other battery pack. It will ruin your tool and may create a hazardous condition.
Installing and Removing the Battery Pack (Fig. 2, 3)
NOTE: Make sure your battery pack is fully charged.
CAUTION: Lock trigger switch before removing or installing battery.
To install the battery pack into the tool handle, align the base of the tool with the notch inside
the tool’s handle and slide the battery pack firmly into the handle until you hear the lock snap into place as shown in Figure 2.
To remove the battery pack from the tool, press the release buttons and firmly pull the bat­tery pack out of the tool handle. Insert it into the charger as described in the charger manual.
Variable Speed Switch
To turn the tool on, squeeze the trigger switch. To turn the tool off, release the trigger switch. Your tool is equipped with a brake. The chuck will stop as soon as the trigger switch is fully released.
The variable speed switch enables you to select the best speed for a particular application. The farther you squeeze the trigger, the faster the tool will operate. Use lower speeds for starting holes without a centerpunch, drilling in metals or plastics, driving screws and drilling ceramics, or in any application requiring high torque. Higher speeds are better for drilling in wood, wood compositions and for using abrasive and polishing accessories. For maximum tool life, use vari­able speed only for starting holes or fasteners.
NOTE: Continuous use in variable speed range is not recommended. It may damage the switch and should be avoided.
Forward/Reverse Control Button (Fig. 3)
A forward/reverse control button determines the direction of the tool and also serves as a lock off button. To select forward rotation, release the trigger switch and depress the forward/reverse control button on the right side of the tool.To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse control button on the left side of the tool. The center position of the control button locks the tool in the off position. When changing the position of the control button, be sure the trigger is released. NOTE: The first time the tool is run after changing the direction of rotation, you may hear a click on start up. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.
Dual Range Gearing
The dual range feature of your tool allows you to shift gears for greater versatility. To select the low speed, high torque setting, turn the tool off and permit to stop. Slide the gear shifter forward (towards the chuck). To select the high speed, low torque setting, turn the tool off and permit to stop. Slide the gear shifter back (away from chuck). NOTE: Do not change gears when the tool is running. If you are having trouble changing gears, make sure that the dual range gear shifter is either completely pushed forward or completely pushed back.
Lubrication
Your tool was properly lubricated before leaving the factory. Within two to six months, depend­ing upon use, take or send your tool to a Service Center, or authorized service station, for a com­plete cleaning, inspection and lubrication. Tools used constantly on production jobs will need relubrication more often. Also, tools “out of service” for long periods should be relubricated before being put back to work.
Repairs
To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustments should be performed by a DEWALT factory service center, a DEWALT authorized service center or other qualified service personnel. Always use identical replacement parts.

Importantes mesures de sécurité – Pour tous les outils alimentés par des piles
AVERTISSEMENT! Lire et comprendre toutes les directives. Le non-respect de toutes les directives suivantes présente des risques de secousses élec­triques, d'incendie ou de blessures graves.
CONSERVER CES MESURES.
ZONE DE TRAVAIL
• S'assurer que la zone de travail est propre et bien éclairée. Des établis encombrés et des
endroits sombres présentent des risques d'accidents.
• Ne pas utiliser des outils électriques en présence de vapeurs explosives (comme celles dégagées par des liquides, des gaz ou des poussières inflammables). Le moteur
des outils électriques génère des étincelles qui peuvent enflammer les poussières ou les vapeurs.
• Éloigner les curieux, les enfants et les visiteurs de la zone de travail lorsqu'on utilise un outil électrique. Une distraction peut entraîner la perte de maîtrise de l'outil.
MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ RELATIVES À L'ÉLECTRICITÉ
• Manipuler le cordon avec soin. Ne jamais se servir du cordon afin de transporter l'outil ni tirer sur le cordon pour débrancher l'outil. Éloigner le cordon des sources de chaleur, des flaques d'huile, des arêtes tranchantes et des pièces mobiles. Remplacer immédiatement les cordons endommagés. Les cordons endommagés augmentent les
risques de secousses électriques.
• Il faut recharger un outil alimenté par des piles intégrées ou par un ensemble de piles amovible seulement à l'ide du chargeur spécifié pour le type de piles. Un chargeur qui
convient à un type de piles peut présenter des risques d'incendie lorsqu'on s'en sert avec un autre type de piles.
• Utiliser un outil alimenté par des piles seulement avec le type spécifié de piles.
L'utilisation de tout autre type de piles peut présenter des risques d'incendie.
SÉCURITÉ PERSONNELLE
• Demeurer vigilant, prendre soin et faire preuve de jugement lorsqu'on utilise un outil électrique. Ne pas s'en servir lorsqu'on est fatigué ou affaibli par des drogues, de l'al­cool ou des médicaments. De graves blessures peuvent résulter d'un moment d'inattention
lors de l'utilisation d'un outil électrique.
Porter des vêtements appropriés; ne pas porter de vêtements amples, de gants ni de bijoux, et couvrir ou attacher les cheveux longs, car ceux-ci peuvent rester coincés dans les pièces mobiles. Se tenir éloigné des évents puisque ces derniers pourraient camoufler des pièces mobiles.
• Éviter les démarrages accidentels. S'assurer que l'interrupteur est en position hors tension avant de brancher l'outil. Afin d'éviter les risques de blessures, ne pas transporter
l'outil avec le doigt sur l'interrupteur ni insérer un ensemble de piles dans un outil dont l'in­terrupteur est en position sous tension.
• Enlever les clés de réglage avant de mettre l'outil sous tension. Une clé qui est laissée sur une pièce rotative de l'outil présente des risques de blessures.
• Ne pas dépasser sa portée. Garder son équilibre en tout temps. On s'assure d'une meilleure maîtrise de l'outil dans des situations imprévues grâce à une position stable et un bon équilibre.
• Porter de l'équipement de sécurité. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité. Dans cer­taines conditions, il faut porter des masques respiratoires, des chaussures antidérapantes, un casque de sécurité ou des protège-tympans.
UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN DE L'OUTIL
• Utiliser des pinces de serrage ou de tout autre moyen pratique afin de fixer et de soutenir la pièce à ouvrer sur une plate-forme stable. La pièce est instable lorsqu'elle est
retenue par la main ou le corps de l'utilisateur. Cela présente des risques de perte de maîtrise de l'outil.
