READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

Safety Rules for Heavy Duty Flashlights

WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE FLASHLIGHT OR CHARGER NEAR FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS OR IN GASEOUS OR EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES. INTERNAL SPARKS MAY IGNITE FUMES.

WARNING: Lens and bulb become hot during use.

During or immediately after use, don’t lay flashlight flat on lens surface.

Don’t touch lens surface when bulb is lit.

Handle flashlight with care around any flammable surface.

If bulb has been lit, let flashlight cool for several minutes before changing bulb.

Safety Rules for Chargers

1.Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) charger, (2) battery pack, and (3) product using battery pack.

2. DANGER: 120 volts present at charging terminals. Do not probe with conductive objects. Danger of electric shock or electrocution.

3.If battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into charger. Danger of electric shock or electrocution.

4.The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together. DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in this manual.

5.Do not expose charger to rain or snow.

6.To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.

7.Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

8.An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in risk

of fire, electric shock, or electrocution.

9.Two wire cords can be used with 2 or 3 wire extension cords. Only round jacketed extension cords should be used, and we recommend that they be listed by Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.) (C.S.A. in Canada.) The letters WA on the cord jacket indicate that the cord is suitable for outdoor use.

10.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.

11.The charger is ventilated through slots in the top and the bottom of the housing. Do not place any object on top of the 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.

12.Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug — have them replaced immediately.

13.Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to an authorized DeWalt service center.

14.Do not disassemble charger; take it to an authorized DeWalt service center when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.

15.To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting any cleaning. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.

16.NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.

17.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).

18.The charger is designed to operate on standard household electrical power (120 volts). Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage!

Safety Rules for Batteries

1.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.

2.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.)

3.Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, immediately discontinue use and do not recharge.

4.Do not carry extra battery packs in aprons, pockets, or tool boxes along with other metal objects. Battery pack could be short circuited causing damage to the battery pack and possibly causing severe burn or fire.

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: Do not store or carry battery so that metal
