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.
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 leak-
age 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 atten-
tion. (Medical note: The liquid is 25–35% solution of potassium
hydroxide.)
• Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plas-
tic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, immediately dis-
continue use and do not recharge.
• Do not carry extra battery packs in aprons, pockets, or tool boxes
along with other metal objects. Battery pack could be short circuit-
ed causing damage to the battery pack and possibly causing
severe burns or fire.
• Charge the battery packs only in D
EWALT chargers.
• NOTE: Review and observe all of the “Important Charging Notes”
in the charger instruction section of this manual.
• DO NOT probe pack with conductive objects.
• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
• Maintain clean and open vent holes.
NOTE: Battery storage and carrying caps are provided
for use whenever the battery is out of the tool or charger.

WARNING: 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 bat-
tery 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 alter-
native.
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 retail-
er for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for
information on where to drop off the spent battery.
