Attaching Abrasive Paper (Fig. B–D)
Your sander is designed to use quarter sheet abrasive
paper. A quarter sheet of abrasive paper is measured 4-1/2"
x 5-1/2" (114.3 mm x 139.7 mm). This size paper can be
madeby:
a. Cutting full sized 9" x 11" (228.6 mm x 279.4mm)
abrasive paper into 1/4 sheets of 4-1/2" x 5-1/2"
(114.3mm x 139.7mm).
b. Cutting half sheet of abrasive paper into two 4-1/2" x
5-1/2" (114.3 mm x 139.7 mm)sheets.
c. Pre-cut 4-1/2" x 5-1/2" (114.3 mm x 139.7 mm)
abrasive paper is available at extracost.
Fitting Regular Abrasive Sheets (Fig. B–D)
For normal operation, assemble the abrasive paper to your
unit as follows:
1. Soften the stiff abrasive paper by pulling it over the
90° edge of a table or other straight edge, as shown
in Figure B. Concentrate on softening the edges to
beclamped.
2. Release the rear paper clamp

by pulling up on the
side clamp levers

and disengaging them from the
tabs

.
3. Disengage the front paper clamp

ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An
accidental start-up can causeinjury.
Intended Use
This quarter sheet sander is designed for professionaluse.
DO NOT use under wet conditions or in presence of
flammable liquids orgases.
DO NOT let children come into contact with the tool.
Supervision is required when inexperienced operators use
thistool.
Wall Mounting
DCB107, DCB112, DCB113, DCB115, DCB118, DCB132
These chargers are designed to be wall mountable or to
sit upright on a table or work surface. If wall mounting,
locate the charger within reach of an electrical outlet,
and away from a corner or other obstructions which may
impede air flow. Use the back of the charger as a template
for the location of the mounting screws on the wall. Mount
the charger securely using drywall screws (purchased
separately) at least 1” (25.4 mm) long, with a screw head
diameter of 0.28–0.35” (7–9mm), screwed into wood to an
optimal depth leaving approximately 7/32” (5.5 mm) of the
screw exposed. Align the slots on the back of the charger
with the exposed screws and fully engage them in theslots.
Electronic Protection System
Li-Ion tools are designed with an Electronic Protection
System that will protect the battery pack against
overloading, overheating or deep discharge.
The tool will automatically turn off if the Electronic
Protection System engages. If this occurs, place the lithium-
ion battery pack on the charger until it is fully charged.
Important Charging Notes
1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if
the battery pack is charged when the air temperature
is between 65°F – 75°F (18° C– 24°C). DO NOT charge
when the battery pack is below +40°F (+4.5°C), or
above +104°F (+40°C). This is important and will
prevent serious damage to the batterypack.
2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to the
touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and
does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of
the battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or
battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal
shed or an uninsulatedtrailer.
3. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp
or other appliance;
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light
switch which turns power off when you turn out
the lights;
c. Move the charger and battery pack to a location
where the surrounding air temperature is
approximately 65°F – 75°F (18°C – 24°C);
d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery
pack and charger to your local servicecenter.
4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to
produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily
done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these
conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may
also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire
with no adverse effect on the batterypack.
5. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but
not limited to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool,
aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles
should be kept away from charger cavities. Always
unplug the charger from the power supply when there
is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger
before attempting toclean.
6. Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any
otherliquid.
Charger Cleaning Instructions

WARNING: Shock hazard. Disconnect the charger
from the AC outlet before cleaning. Dirt and grease
may be removed from the exterior of the charger using
a cloth or soft non-metallic brush. Do not use water or
any cleaningsolutions.
