WARNING:
Batteries can explode, or leak, and can cause
injury or fire. To reduce this risk:
• Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label
and package and accompanying Battery Safety Leaflet.
• Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and –),
marked on the battery and the equipment.
• Do not short battery terminals.
• Do not charge disposable batteries.
• Do not mix old and new batteries. Replace all of them at the same
time with new batteries of the same brand and type.
• Remove dead batteries immediately and dispose of per local
codes.

• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children.
• Remove batteries when the device is not in use
• Use only the charger specified for your rechargeable battery pack.
Personal Safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense
when operating a laser 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.
• 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.
Tool Use and Care
• 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.
• Store idle laser tools out of the reach of children and do not
allow persons unfamiliar with the tool or these instructions to
operate the tool. Laser tools may be dangerous in the hands of
untrained users..
• 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 maintenance 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.

Operating Tips
• Use only new, high-quality, name brand AA batteries or specified
rechargeable DEWALT12V Li-Ion pack for best results.
• Ensure batteries are in good working condition. If the low battery
red indicator light is flashing, the batteries need replacement.
• To extend battery life, turn laser off when not working with or
marking the beam.
• To ensure the accuracy of your work, check to make sure your
laser is calibrated often. See Field Calibration Check.
• Before attempting to use the laser, make sure it is positioned
securely, on a smooth, flat surface.
• Always mark the center of the beam created by the laser.
• Extreme temperature changes may cause movement of internal
parts that can affect accuracy. Check your accuracy often while
working. See Field Calibration Check.
• If the laser has been dropped, check to make sure your laser is
still calibrated. See Field Calibration Check.
Low Battery Indication
The DW089LR, DW089LG, DW0811LR, DW0811LG lasers
are equipped with a battery gauge as shown in Figure 1B.
The battery gauge indicates remaining power with each LED
representing 25%. The bottom LED will illuminate and blink
indicating that the level is low (below 12.5%) and the batteries
need to be replaced. The laser may continue to operate for
a short time while the batteries continue to drain, but the
beam(s) will quickly dim. After fresh batteries are installed
and the laser is turned on again, the laser beam(s) will return
to full brightness and the battery indicator level will indicate
full capacity. (A flashing laser beam is not caused by low
batteries; see Out of Tilt Range Indicator.) If all 4 LED's on the
battery meter LED's continuously flash this does not indicate
a low battery; see "The Battery Meter LED's Flash" under
Troubleshooting.
Operation
To Turn the Lasers On and Off
(See Figure
)
1
With the laser off, place it on a flat surface. Slide the Pendulum
B
Lock switch
to the Unlocked/ON position. The DCE089G/R
C
model has three ON/OFF buttons on the keypad
one for a
D
horizontal laser line
, one for a side vertical laser line
F
one for a front vertical laser line
(DCE089G/R only). The
DCE0811G /R has two lines -a horizontal line and side vertical
line. Each laser line is powered on by pressing its
ON/OFF button on the keypad. The laser lines can be powered
one at a time or all at the same time. Pressing the ON/OFF keys
again turns the laser lines off. Slide the Pendulum Lock switch
to the OFF/Locked position when the laser is not in use. If the
pendulum lock switch is not placed in the lock position all
4 LED's will continuously flash on the Battery Meter.
Using the Lasers
Out of LEVEL Range Indicator
The lasers are designed to self-level. If the laser has been tilted
so much that it cannot self-level ( > 4° ), the laser beam will
flash. There are two flashing sequences associated with the
out of level condition: (i) between 4° and 10° the beams flash
with a constant blink cycle; (ii) at angles greater than 10° the
beams flash with a three blink cycle. When the beams flash
THE LASER IS NOT LEVEL (OR PLUMB) AND SHOULD NOT BE
USED FOR DETERMINING OR MARKING LEVEL OR PLUMB.
Try repositioning the laser on a more level surface.

WARNING:
Position the laser and/or wall mount on a stable surface.
Serious personal injury or damage to the laser may result
if the laser falls.:
The laser has a magnetic pivot bracket
G
permanently attached
to the unit. This bracket allows the unit to be mounted to any
upright surface made of steel or iron. Common examples of
suitable surfaces include steel framing studs, steel door frames
and structural steel beams. The bracket also has a keyhole slot
H
allowing the unit to be hung from a nail or screw on any
kind of surface.
Using the Laser with the CEILING Mount
(See Figure

)
L
The laser ceiling mount
(if included) offers more mounting
options for the laser. The ceiling mount has a clamp
which can be fixed to a wall angle for acoustic ceiling installation.
At each end of the ceiling mount is a screw hole
ceiling mount to be attached to any surface with a nail or screw.
