Important Safety Instructions For All Battery Chargers - DeWalt XR Li-Ion DCD931 Original Instructions Manual

Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns
or a fire.
d ) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
6) Service
a ) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Additional Specific Safety Rules for Drills/
Drivers/Hammerdrills
• Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
Use auxiliary handles, if supplied with the tool. Loss of
•
control can cause personal injury.
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and could give the operator an electric shock.
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support
•
the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by
hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss
of control.
Wear ear protectors when hammering for extended
•
periods of time. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise
can cause hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss or serious ear
drum damage may result from high sound levels generated by
hammerdrilling.
• Wear safety goggles or other eye protection. Hammering
and drilling operations cause chips to fly. Flying particles can
cause permanent eye damage.
Hammer bits and tools get hot during operation. Wear
•
gloves when touching them.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
• Impairment of hearing.
• Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
• Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
• Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
Electrical Safety
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only.
Always check that the battery pack voltage corresponds to the
voltage on the rating plate. Also make sure that the voltage of
your charger corresponds to that of your mains.
Your D WALT charger is double insulated in
e
accordance with EN60335; therefore no earth wire
is required.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a
specially prepared cord available through the D
service organisation.
Mains Plug Replacement
(U.K. & Ireland Only)
If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:
• Safely dispose of the old plug.
• Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in the plug.
• Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.

WARNING: No connection is to be made to the
earth terminal.
Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good quality plugs.
Recommended fuse: 3 A.
Using an Extension Cable
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. Use an approved extension cable suitable for
the power input of your charger (see Technical Data). The
minimum conductor size is 1 mm
is 30 m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.

Important Safety Instructions for All
Battery Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important
safety and operating instructions for compatible battery
chargers (refer to Technical Data).
• Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary
markings on charger, battery pack, and product using
battery pack.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get
inside charger. Electric shock may result.

WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual current
device with a residual current rating of 30mA or less.

CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury,
charge only D WALT rechargeable batteries. Other types of
e
batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.

CAUTION: Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
NOTICE: Under certain conditions, with the charger
plugged into 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
