•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
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR NICKEL CADMIUM (NiCD) OR NICKEL METAL HYDRIDE (NiMH)
•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:
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
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM ION
•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. Toxic fumes and materials are created when lithium ion battery packs are burned.
•If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with mild soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for 15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If 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: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
The RBRC™ Seal
The RBRC™ (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™ 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™ is a registered trademark of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation.

OPERATION
AC Operation
1.Unwrap power cord and plug into a 120 V AC wall outlet.
2.The two sockets are now active and can be used. NOTE: The two sockets are only active during AC use.
Battery Operation (Fig. 2)
1.Place the folded up DC020 on a stable, level surface, lens cover (I) side down.
2.Lift the battery
(C). Slowly place the battery
3.With one hand securely holding the handle (B), use the other hand to lift the worklight housing (J).
Usage (Fig. 1, 3)
1.Place the folded up DC020 on a stable, level surface.
2.The worklight housing can be positioned in different positions. With one hand securely holding the handle (B), use the other hand to lift the support arm (K) to one of the five positions shown.
3.Position the worklight as desired. Press the ON/OFF switch (A) to ON.
When finished using the worklight, turn the ON/OFF switch to OFF, fold the worklight housing down to the flat position for storage.
Replacing the Fluorescent Bulb (Fig. 1, 4)

CAUTION: Vision may be impaired when looking directly into fluorescent light.
CAUTION: Cut hazard. If replacing a broken bulb, protect your hands before attempting to remove the bulb. Do not remove any pieces of broken glass or bulb from the socket area with bare hands, or personal injury may occur.
To change the fluorescent bulb, the worklight housing must be in an upward position as shown in Figure 1.
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the worklight, DO NOT separate the rubber gasket from the lens cover. The rubber gasket is permanently attached.
NOTE: Recommended replacement bulb is the DEWALT DC0213 38W fluorescent bulb.
NOTE: Avoid touching the reflective surface. Surface contamination will decrease reflectivity.
1.With one hand securing the bottom corner of the worklight housing (J) and lens cover (I), use the other hand to roll back the rubber gasket (L) from the worklight housing starting at one of the bottom corners.
2.Still securely holding the worklight housing roll back the rubber gasket from all sides of the housing, finishing at the top.
3.Remove the rubber gasket (L) and lens cover (I) and set aside.
4.With one hand securing the bottom corner of the worklight housing, use the other hand to remove the bulb guard (M). Gently squeeze the sides of the bulb guard with the thumb and index finger to release it from the clips. Set the bulb guard aside.
5.Secure the bottom corner of the worklight housing with one hand. Use the other hand to firmly grasp the fluorescent bulb (H) at the center and hold onto the white plastic housing under the bulb guard. While still securing the bottom corner, gently remove the bulb from the worklight housing as shown. Ensure that the socket and area around the socket is free of dirt, dust and other contaminants.
6.Align the replacement fluorescent bulb in the same orientation as the previous bulb. Secure the bottom corner of the worklight housing with one hand. Using the other hand, carefully press on the center of the bulb’s plastic housing to secure it in place.
7.Once the replacement bulb is in place, gently press the center of the bulb’s plastic housing to ensure it is connected properly. Replace the bulb guard by clipping it to the worklight housing.
