IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS ABOUT THIS OR ANY DEWALT TOOL, CALL US TOLL FREE AT: 1-800-4-DEWALT (1-800-433-9258) General Safety Rules – For All Battery Operated Tools WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instruc- tions 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 flam- mable 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 medica- tion. 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 insert- ing 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 plat- form. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to a 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. Any 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 pre- ventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally. • Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dan- gerous 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 con- nection 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 edges 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 become hazardous when used on another tool. SERVICE • Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or mainte- nance 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 electric shock or injury. Additional Specific Safety Rules for Jig Saws • Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cut- ting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator. • Allow the motor to come to a complete stop before withdrawing the blade from the kerf (the slot created by cutting). A moving blade may impact the workpiece causing a broken blade, workpiece damage or loss of control and possible personal injury. • Keep handles dry, clean, free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of the tool. • Keep blades sharp. Dull blades may cause the saw to swerve or stall under pressure.

Dust and grit containing metal par- ticles often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create an electric shock hazard. • Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by the operating action of this tool may cause permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion, take frequent rest periods, and limit daily time of use. WARNING: Always wear eye protection while operating this power tool. 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 reproduc- tive 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. 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. CAUTION: Wear appropriate hearing protection during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss. • 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 no....................no load speed ................Class I Construction ....................earthing terminal ....................(grounded) ....................safety alert symbol ..................Class II Construction …/min ............revolutions or reciprocation ....................(double insulated) ........................per minute BPM ............beats per minute Important Safety Instructions for Battery Packs Your tool uses an 18.0 Volt 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 bro- ken 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 DEWALT 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 (40˚) (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 electrocu- tion may result. Damaged battery packs should be returned to service center for recycling. NOTE: Battery storage and carrying caps areprovided 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 pro- tected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit. CAUTION: Battery pack must be securely attached to tool. If battery pack is detached, per- sonal injury may result. The RBRC™ Seal The RBRC™(Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the nickel cadmium and nickel metal hydride batteries (or battery packs) indicate that the costs to recycle these batteries (or battery packs) at the end of their useful life have already been paid by DEWALT. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel cad- mium and nickel metal hydride batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an environmentally conscious alternative. RBRC™in cooperation with DEWALT and other battery users, has established programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel cadmium and nickel metal hydride batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning the spent nickel cadmium and nickel metal hydride batteries to an authorized DEWALT service cen- ter 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 DEWALT 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 mate- rials 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 DEWALT 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. Recommended Minimum Wire Size for Extension Cords Total Length of Cord 25 ft. 50 ft. 75 ft. 100 ft. 125 ft. 150 ft. 175 ft. 7.6 m 15.2 m 22.9 m 30.5 m 38.1 m 45.7 m 53.3 m Wire Size AWG 18 18 16 16 14 14 12 • 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 charg- er 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.

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: a. and the battery liquid gets on your skin, immediately wash with soap and water for several minutes. b. and the 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.) SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM ION (LI-ION) • Do not incinerate the battery pack even ff it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created when lithium ion battery packs are burned. • ff battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with mild soap and water, ff battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for 15 minutes or until irritation ceases, ff medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is composed of a mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts. • Contents of opened battery cells may cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If symptoms persists, seek medical attention. _ WARNING: Bum hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame. The RBRC TM Seal The RBRC TM (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion batteries (or battery packs) indicate that the costs to recycle these batteries (or battery packs) at the end of their useful life have already been paid by DEWALT. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an environmentally conscious alternative. RBRC TM in cooperation with DEWALT and other battery users, has established programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning the spent nickel cadmium and nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion batteries to an authorized DEWALT 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 TM is a registered trademark of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation. Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important safety and operating 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. Electric shock or electrocution may result. WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may result. A CAUTION: Bum hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only DEWAL T 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 NOTattempt to charge the batterypack with any chargers other than the ones in this manual The charger and batter y 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 charger to rain or snow. • Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger. This will reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord. • Make sure that 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 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.
