GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS



WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all

instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or

seriousinjury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE

REFERENCE

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-

operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)

powertool.

1) Work Area Safety

a ) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark

areas inviteaccidents.

b ) 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.

c ) Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you

to losecontrol.

2) Electrical Safety

a ) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in any way. Do not use any

adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power

tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will

reduce risk of electricshock.

b ) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded

surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed orgrounded.

c ) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase

the risk of electricshock.

d ) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for

carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or

moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase

the risk of electricshock.

e ) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of

a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of

electricshock.

f ) If operating a power tool in a damp location

is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit

interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI

reduces the risk of electricshock.

3) Personal Safety

a ) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool. Do

not use a power tool while you are tired or under

the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A

moment of inattention while operating power tools

may result in serious personalinjury.

b ) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear

eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce

personalinjuries.

c ) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the

switch is in the off position before connecting to

power source and/or battery pack, picking up or

carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your

finger on the switch or energizing power tools that

have the switch on invitesaccidents.

d ) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left

attached to a rotating part of the power tool may

result in personalinjury.

e ) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times. This enables better control of

the power tool in unexpectedsituations.

f ) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves

away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or

long hair can be caught in movingparts.

g ) If devices are provided for the connection of dust

extraction and collection facilities, ensure these

are connected and properly used. Use of dust

collection can reduce dust-relatedhazards.

4) Power Tool Use and Care

a ) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct

power tool for your application. The correct power

tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for

which it wasdesigned.

b ) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not

turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must

berepaired.

c ) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/

or the battery pack from the power tool before

making any adjustments, changing accessories,

or storing power tools. Such preventive safety

measures reduce the risk of starting the power

toolaccidentally.

d ) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children

and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the

power tool or these instructions to operate the

power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands

of untrainedusers.

e ) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and

any other condition that may affect the power

tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power

tool repaired before use. Many accidents are

caused by poorly maintained powertools.

f ) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are

less likely to bind and are easier tocontrol.

g ) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc.

in accordance with these instructions, taking

ENGLISH

into account the working conditions and the

work to be performed. Use of the power tool for

operations different from those intended could result

in a hazardoussituation.

5) Battery Tool Use and Care

a ) Recharge only with the charger specified by the

manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type

of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used

with another batterypack.

b ) Use power tools only with specifically designated

battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may

create a risk of injury andfire.

c ) 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 burns or afire.

d ) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from

the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally

occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,

additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from

the battery may cause irritation orburns.

6) Service

a ) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified

repair person using only identical replacement

parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power

tool ismaintained.

Nailer Safety Warnings

• Always assume that the tool contains fasteners.

Careless handling of the nailer can result in unexpected

firing of fasteners and personalinjury.

• Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone

nearby. Unexpected triggering could discharge a fastener

causing aninjury.

• Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed

firmly against the workpiece. If the tool is not in

contact with the workpiece, the fastener may be deflected

away from yourtarget.

• Disconnect the tool from the power source when the

fastener jams in the tool. While removing a jammed

fastener, the nailer may be accidentally activated if it is

pluggedin.

• Do not use this nailer for fastening electrical cables.

It is not designed for electric cable installation and may

damage the insulation of electric cables thereby causing

electric shock or firehazards.

Additional Nailer Safety Warnings



WARNING: When using any nailer, all safety

precautions, as outlined below, should be followed

to avoid the risk of death or serious injury. Read and

understand all instructions before operating thetool.

• Keep hands and body parts away from the discharge

area of the tool. While in use NEVER grasp the tool by the

magazine or canister, a mis-driven nail can exit the nose

causing injury.

• Never operate tool with magazine disengaged or

separated from tool.

• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when

performing an operation where the pin may

contact hidden wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will

make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock

theoperator.

• Always wear appropriate personal hearing and

other protection during use. Under some conditions

and duration of use, noise from this product may

contribute to hearingloss.

• Disconnect battery pack from the tool when not in

use. Always remove battery pack and remove fasteners

from magazine before leaving the area or passing the

tool to another operator. Do not carry tool to another

work area in which changing location involves the use

of scaffoldings, stairs, ladders, and the like, with battery

pack connected. Do not make adjustments, perform

maintenance or clear jammed fasteners while battery is

inplace.

• Always use trigger lock-off when tool is not in

immediate use. Using the trigger lock-off will prevent

accidental discharge.

• Do not remove, tamper with, or otherwise cause

the tool, trigger or trigger lock-off, to become

inoperable. Do not tape or tie trigger in the on position.

Do not remove spring from contact trip. Make daily

inspections for free movement of trigger. Uncontrolled

discharge couldresult.

• Inspect tool before use. Do not operate a tool if any

portion of the tool, trigger, or trigger lock-off is

inoperable, disconnected, altered, or not working

properly. Damaged parts or missing parts should be

repaired or replaced before use. Refer toRepairs.

• Do not alter or modify the tool in anyway.

• Always assume that the tool containsfasteners.

• Do not point the tool at co-workers or yourself at

any time. No horseplay! Work safe! Respect the tool as a

workingimplement.

• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to

lose control. When tool is not in use, it should be locked in

a safe place, out of the reach ofchildren.

• Do not overreach. Maintain proper footing and

balance at all times. Loss of balance may cause

personal injury.

• Use the tool only for its intended use. Do not

discharge fasteners into open air or any material

too hard for the pin to penetrate. Do not use the

body of the tool or top cap as a hammer. Discharged

pin may follow unexpected path and causeinjury.

• Always keep fingers clear of contact trip to prevent

injury from inadvertent release of thepin.

• Refer to the Maintenance and Repairs sections for

detailed information on the proper maintenance of

thetool.

ENGLISH

• Always operate the tool in a clean, lighted area.

Be sure the work surface is clear of any debris and be

careful not to lose footing when working in elevated

environments such asrooftops.

• Fasteners must be driven straight into the material.

Do not tilt the nailer while driving fasteners. Personal

injury can result from ricocheted or jammedpins.

• Keep hands and body parts clear of immediate

workarea.



WARNING: To avoid injury keep hands and body

away from the front discharge area of thetool.

• Do not use tool in the presence of flammable dust,

gases or fumes. This tool produces sparks that can ignite

gases or dust causing an explosion. Driving a pin into

another pin may also cause aspark.

• Keep face and body parts away from back of the tool

cap when working in restricted areas. Sudden recoil

can result in impact to the body, especially when nailing

into hard or densematerial.

• Grip tool firmly to maintain control while allowing

tool to recoil away from work surface as fastener

isdriven.

• Be aware of material thickness when using nailer. A

protruding pin may causeinjury.

• Do not drive pins blindly into walls, floors or other

work areas. Fasteners driven into live electrical wires,

plumbing, or other types of obstructions can result

ininjury.

• 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.

boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose

nails, screws, keys, etc. 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 in

carry-on baggage UNLESS they are properly protected

from short circuits. So when transporting individual

battery packs, make sure that the battery terminals

are protected and well insulated from materials that

could contact them and cause a short circuit.

Shipping the

DeWALT

FLEXVOLT™ Battery

The D

WALT FLEXVOLT™ battery has two modes: Use

andShipping.

Use Mode: When the FLEXVOLT™ battery stands alone or is

in a D

WALT 20V Max* product, it will operate as a 20V Max*

battery. When the FLEXVOLT™ battery is in a 60V Max* or a

120V Max* (two 60V Max* batteries) product, it will operate

as a 60V Max* battery.

Shipping Mode: When

the cap is attached to the

FLEXVOLT™ battery, the

battery is in Shipping Mode.

Strings of cells are electrically

disconnected within the pack resulting in three batteries

with a lower Watt hour (Wh) rating as compared to one

battery with a higher Watt hour rating. This increased

quantity of three batteries with the lower Watt hour rating

can exempt the pack from certain shipping regulations that

are imposed upon the higher Watt hour batteries.

The battery label indicates two Watt hour ratings (see

example). Depending on how the battery is shipped, the

appropriate Watt hour rating must be used to determine

the applicable shipping requirements. If utilizing the

shipping cap, the pack will be considered 3 batteries at

the Watt hour rating indicated for “Shipping”. If shipping

without the cap or in a tool, the pack will be considered one

battery at the Watt hour rating indicated next to “Use”.

USE: 120 Wh Shipping: 3 x 40 Wh

Example of Use and Shipping Label Marking

For example, Shipping Wh rating might indicate 3 x 40 Wh,

meaning 3 batteries of 40 Watt hours each. The Use Wh

rating might indicate 120 Wh (1 battery implied).

Fuel Gauge Battery Packs (Fig. B)

Some

DeWALT

battery packs include a fuel gauge which

consists of three green LED lights that indicate the level of

charge remaining in the batterypack.

The fuel gauge is an indication of approximate levels of

charge remaining in the battery pack according to the

followingindicators:

ENGLISH

75–100% charged

51–74% charged

< 50% charged

Pack needs to be charged

To actuate the fuel gauge, press and hold the fuel gauge

button. A combination of the three green LED lights will

illuminate designating the level of charge left. When the

level of charge in the battery is below the usable limit, the

fuel gauge will not illuminate and the battery will need to

Important Safety Instructions for All

Battery Chargers



WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all

instructions for the battery pack, charger and

power tool. Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/

or serious injury.

• 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

DeWALT

rechargeable batteries.

Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock

orelectrocution.

• Do not expose the charger to rain orsnow.

• Pull by the plug rather than the cord when

disconnecting the charger. This will reduce the risk of

damage to the electric plug andcord.

• Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not

be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected

to damage orstress.

• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely

necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in

risk of fire, electric shock orelectrocution.

• When operating a charger outdoors, always provide

a dry location and use an extension cord suitable

for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use

reduces the risk of electricshock.

• 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. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage

resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using

more than one extension to make up the total length,

be sure each individual extension contains at least the

minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct

size to use depending on cord length and nameplate

ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The

lower the gauge number, the heavier thecord.

* DCB107, DCB112, DCB113, DCB115, DCB118, DCB132:

The red light will continue to blink, but a yellow indicator

light will be illuminated during this operation. Once the

battery pack has reached an appropriate temperature, the

yellow light will turn off and the charger will resume the

charging procedure.

The compatible charger(s) will not charge a faulty battery

pack. The charger will indicate faulty battery pack by

refusing to light or by displaying a problem pack or charger

blink pattern.

NOTE: This could also mean a problem with a charger.

If the charger indicates a problem, take the charger and

battery pack to be tested at an authorized service center.

Hot/Cold Pack Delay

When the charger detects a battery pack that is too hot

or too cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay,

suspending charging until the battery pack has reached an

appropriate temperature. The charger then automatically

switches to the pack charging mode. This feature ensures

maximum battery pack life.

A cold battery pack will charge at a slower rate than a warm

battery pack. The battery pack will charge at that slower rate

throughout the entire charging cycle and will not return to

maximum charge rate even if the battery pack warms.

The DCB118 charger is equipped with an internal fan

designed to cool the battery pack. The fan will turn on

automatically when the battery pack needs to be cooled.

properly or if ventilation slots are blocked. Do not permit

foreign objects to enter the interior of the charger.

Electronic Protection System

Li-Ion tools are designed with an Electronic Protection

System that will protect the battery pack against

overloading, overheating or deep discharge.

ENGLISH

The tool will automatically turn off if the Electronic

Protection System engages. If this occurs, place the lithium-

ion battery pack on the charger until it is fully charged.

Wall Mounting

DCB107, DCB112, DCB113, DCB115, DCB118, DCB132

These chargers are designed to be wall mountable or to

sit upright on a table or work surface. If wall mounting,

locate the charger within reach of an electrical outlet,

and away from a corner or other obstructions which may

impede air flow. Use the back of the charger as a template

for the location of the mounting screws on the wall. Mount

the charger securely using drywall screws (purchased

separately) at least 1" (25.4 mm) long, with a screw head

diameter of 0.28–0.35" (7–9mm), screwed into wood to an

optimal depth leaving approximately 7/32" (5.5 mm) of the

screw exposed. Align the slots on the back of the charger

with the exposed screws and fully engage them in the slots.

Charger Cleaning Instructions



WARNING: Shock hazard. Disconnect the charger

from the AC outlet before cleaning. Dirt and grease

may be removed from the exterior of the charger using

a cloth or soft non-metallic brush. Do not use water or

any cleaning solutions.

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 +104°F (+40°C). This is important

and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.

2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to the

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 operation of 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 the 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 service 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 effect on the battery pack.

5. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but

not limited to, grinding dust, metal chips, 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 the charger

before attempting to clean.

6. Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any

other liquid.

Storage Recommendations

1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry, away

from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.

2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully

charged battery pack in a cool dry place out of the

charger for optimal results.

NOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely

depleted of charge. The battery pack will need to be

recharged before use.
