? WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.

❗ WARNING: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into charger. Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over or damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped on). Electric shock or electrocution may result. Damaged battery packs should be returned to service centre for recycling.

? WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry the battery pack so that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place the battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.

⚠️ 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.

Transportation

? WARNING: Fire hazard. Transporting batteries can possibly cause fire if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials. When transporting batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

NOTE: Lithium-ion batteries should not be put in checked baggage.

DEWALT batteries comply with all applicable shipping regulations as prescribed by industry and legal standards which include UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods; International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations, International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Regulations, and the European Agreement Concerning The International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR). Lithium-ion cells and batteries have been tested to section 38.3 of the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods Manual of Tests and Criteria.

In most instances, shipping a DEWALT battery pack will be excepted from being classified as a fully regulated Class 9 Hazardous Material. In general, only shipments containing a lithium-ion battery with an energy rating greater than 100 Watt Hours (Wh) will require being shipped as fully regulated Class 9. All lithium-ion batteries have the Watt Hour rating marked on the pack. Furthermore, due to regulation complexities, DEWALT does not recommend air shipping lithium-ion battery packs alone regardless of Watt Hour rating. Shipments of tools with batteries (combo kits) can be air shipped as excepted if the Watt Hour rating of the battery pack is no greater than 100 Wh.

Regardless of whether a shipment is considered excepted or fully regulated, it is the shipper's responsibility to consult the latest regulations for packaging, labeling/marking and documentation requirements.

The information provided in this section of the manual is provided in good faith and believed to be accurate at the time the document was created. However, no warranty, expressed or implied, is given. It is the buyer's responsibility to ensure that its activities comply with the applicable regulations.

Transporting the FLEXVOLTTM Battery

The DEWALT FLEXVOLTTM battery has two modes: Use and Transport.

Use Mode: When the FLEXVOLTTM battery stands alone or is in a DEWALT 20V Max product, it will operate as an 20V Max battery. When the FLEXVOLTTM battery is in a 54V or a 108V (two 54V batteries) product, it will operate as a 54V battery.

Transport Mode: When the cap is attached to the FLEXVOLTTM battery, the battery is in Transport mode. Keep the cap for shipping.

When in Transport mode, strings of cells are electrically disconnected within the pack resulting in 3 batteries with a lower Watt hour (Wh) rating as compared to 1 battery with a higher Watt hour rating. This increased quantity of 3 batteries with the lower Watt hour rating can exempt the pack from certain shipping regulations that are imposed upon the higher Watt hour batteries.

Example of Use and Transport Label Marking: Transport Wh rating might indicate 3 x 36 Wh, meaning 3 batteries of 36 Wh each. The Use Wh rating might indicate 108 Wh (1 battery implied).

Storage Recommendations

1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold. For optimum battery performance and life, store battery packs at room temperature when not in use.
2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged battery pack in a cool, dry place out of the charger for optimal results.

NOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted of charge. The battery pack will need to be recharged before use.

8. Rotate the laser 90° so the side vertical beam now passes through b and e (Figure M3).
9. Directly above or below a, mark f along the front vertical beam.
10. Measure the distance between a and f. If the measurement is greater than the values shown below, the laser must be serviced at an authorised service centre.

Using the Laser

Leveling the Laser

As long as the laser is properly calibrated, the laser is self-leveling. Each laser is calibrated at the factory to find level as long as it is positioned on a flat surface within average ± 4° of level. No manual adjustments are required.

If the laser has been tilted so much that it cannot self-level (> 4°), the laser beam will flash.

❗ When the beams flash as noted above 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.

Using the Pivot Bracket (Fig. N, O, P)

The laser has a magnetic pivot bracket (Figure N, 9) permanently attached to the unit.

⚠️ 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 bracket has a keyhole slot (Figure O 10) so it can be hung from a nail or screw on any kind of surface.
• The bracket has magnets (Figure P) which allow the unit to be mounted to most upright surfaces made of steel or iron. Common examples of suitable surfaces include steel framing studs, steel door frames, and structural steel beams. Before attaching the pivot bracket against a stud (Figure P 11), place the Metal Enhancement Plate (Figure P 12) on the opposite side of the stud.

Maintenance

• To maintain the accuracy of your work, check the laser often to make sure it is properly calibrated. See Field Calibration Check.
• Calibration checks and other maintenance repairs may be performed by DEWALT service centres.
• Do not store your laser in the kit box if the laser is wet. The laser should be dried first with a soft dry cloth prior to storage.
• Cleaning: Exterior plastic parts may be cleaned with a damp cloth. Although these parts are solvent resistant, NEVER use solvents. Use a soft, dry cloth to remove moisture from the tool before storage.

Troubleshooting

The Laser Does Not Turn On

• Fully-charge the battery pack and then reinstall it in the laser unit.
• If the laser unit is exposed to extremely hot temperatures, the unit will not turn on. If the laser has been stored in extremely hot temperatures, allow it to cool. The laser level will not be damaged by pressing the on/off button before cooling to its proper operating temperature.

The Laser Beams Flash

The lasers are designed to self-level up to an average of 4° in all directions. If the laser is tilted so much that the internal mechanism cannot level itself, the laser beams will flash indicating that the tilt range has been exceeded. THE FLASHING BEAMS CREATED BY THE LASER ARE 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.

If the laser battery pack has a low state of charge, the beams will flash in a distinctive pattern of 3 quick flashes in 1 second, followed by constant light output for 4 seconds. This flashing pattern indicates that the battery pack should be replaced with a fully charged battery pack.

The Laser Beams Will Not Stop Moving

The laser is a precision instrument. Therefore, if it is not positioned on a stable (and motionless) surface, the laser will continue to try to find level. If the beam will not stop moving, try placing the laser on a more stable surface. Also, try to make sure that the surface is relatively flat, so that the laser is stable.

Accessories (Fig. Q, R, S)

The laser is packaged with a drop ceiling bracket 13. The drop ceiling bracket contains a steel plate and attaches to the magnetized pivot bracket 9 (Figure Q).

The drop ceiling bracket is equipped with both 1/4 - 20 and 5/8 - 11 female threads on the bottom of the unit).

This thread on is to accommodate current or future DEWALT accessories. Refer to Figures R and S for examples of accessories sold separately. Only use DEWALT accessories specified for use with this product. Follow the directions included with the accessory.

❗ WARNING: Since accessories, other than those offered by DEWALT, have not been tested with this product, use of such accessories with this tool could be hazardous. To reduce the risk of injury, only DEWALT recommended accessories should be used with this product.

If you need any assistance in locating any accessory, please contact your nearest DEWALT service centre or go to www.2helpU.com.

Target Card (Fig. T)

Some laser kits include a Laser Target Card (Figure T) to aid in locating and marking the laser beam. The target card enhances the visibility of the laser beam as the beam crosses over the card. The card is marked with standard and metric scales. The laser beam passes through the semi-transparent plastic and reflects off of the reflective tape on the reverse side. The magnet at the top of the card is designed to hold the target card to ceiling track or steel studs to determine plumb and level positions. For best performance when using the Target Card, the DEWALT logo should be facing you.
