Chargers
DeWALT
chargers require no adjustment and are designed to be
as easy as possible tooperate.
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
DeWALT
charger is double insulated in
accordance with EN60335; therefore no earth wire
isrequired.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced only by
DeWALT
or an authorised 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
2
; the maximum length
is30m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cablecompletely.
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.
• Risk of personal injury if the adjusted pressure is higher than
maximum pressure of thetool.
lighting. Never use the compressor near combustible liquids
orgases.
30 . DO NOT OPERATE IN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES, SUCH
AS IN THE PRESENCE OF FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS, GASES OR
DUST. Compressors can create sparks which may ignite the
dust orfumes.
31 . CHECK THE PRESSURE VESSEL FOR SIGNS OF RUST AND
DAMAGE EACH TIME BEFORE USING. Do not use the
compressor with a damaged or rusty pressurevessel.
17 . OPERATE COMPRESSOR AT THE RATED VOLTAGE.
Operate the compressor at voltages specified on their
nameplates. If using the compressor at a higher voltage
than the rated voltage, it will result in abnormally fast motor
revolution and may damage the unit and burn out themotor.
18 . NEVER USE A COMPRESSOR WHICH IS DEFECTIVE OR
OPERATING ABNORMALLY. If the compressor appears to
be operating unusually, making strange noises, or otherwise
appears defective, stop using it immediately and arrange for
repairs by an authorized servicecentre.
19 . DO NOT WIPE PLASTIC PARTS WITH SOLVENT. Solvents
such as gasoline, thinner, benzine, carbon tetrachloride,
and alcohol may damage and crack plastic parts. Do not
wipe them with such solvents. Wipe plastic parts with a soft
cloth lightly dampened with soapy water and drythoroughly.
20 . USE ONLY GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS. Replacement
parts not original may void your warranty and can lead
to malfunction and resulting injuries. Genuine parts are
available from yourdealer.
21 . DO NOT MODIFY THE COMPRESSOR. Do not modify
the compressor. Always contact the authorized service
centre any repairs. Unauthorised modification may
not only impair the compressor performance but may
also result in accident or injury to repair personnel who
do not have the required knowledge and technical
expertise to perform the repair operations correctly.
Unauthorised modifications may increase the risk of injury to
the user or the risk of propertydamage.
22 . TURN OFF THE SWITCH WHEN THE COMPRESSOR IS NOT
USED. When the compressor is not used, turn the switch OFF,
disconnect it from the power source and open the drain cock
to discharge the compressed air from the airtank.
23 . NEVER TOUCH HOT SURFACE. To reduce the risk of burns,
do not touch tubes, heads, cylinder andmotors.
24 . DO NOT DIRECT AIR STREAM AT BODY. Risk of injury, do
not direct air stream at persons oranimals.
25 . DRAIN TANK DAILY OR AFTER EACH USE. Open the
drain valve and tilt compressor to completely empty
accumulated water. Failure to properly drain tank may
result in excessive corrosion, which may cause sudden air tank
rupture orexplosion.
26 . DO NOT STOP COMPRESSOR BY PULLING OUT THE
BATTERY. Use the auto ON/ OFFswitch.
27 . USE ONLY RECOMMENDED AIR HANDLING PARTS
ACCEPTABLE FOR PRESSURE NOT LESS THAN 9.3 BAR
Risk of bursting. Use only recommended air handling parts
acceptable for pressures not less than 9.3bar.
28 . WEAR PROPER HEARING AND HEAD PROTECTION.
Suitable protective clothing must be worn when
operating the compressor and connected tool or
accessory. Consult the tool/ accessory manual and adhere to
any safetyrequirements.
29 . MAKE ALLOWANCE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
Never leave the compressor in the rain. Never use the
compressor in damp or wet conditions. Provide good
