2) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
tool. Do not use a tool while you are tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while
operating tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
c) Do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
tool or these instructions to operate the
tool. Tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
d) Maintain tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may
affect the tool’s operation. If damaged,
have the tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
tools.
3) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Recharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer. A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.
b) Use tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from other metal objects like paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another.
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.
4) SERVICE
a) Have your tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the tool is maintained.
Additional Specifi c Safety Rules for
IR Thermometers
WARNING: Laser Radiation
Exposure. Do not disassemble or
modify the IRthermometers. There
are no user serviceable parts inside.
Serious eye injury could result.
WARNING: Hazardous Radiation.
Use of controls or adjustments or
performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
• Do not operate the IRthermometers in
explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases, or
dust. Tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
• Use the IR thermometer only with the
specifically designated DEWALT batteries.
Use of any other batteries may create a risk of
fire.
• Store the IR thermometer out of reach
of children and other untrained persons.
Lasers are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
• Tool service must be performed only by
qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel may result in injury. Refer to the
back cover for local service centres.
• Do not use optical tools such as a
telescope or transit to view the laser beam.
Serious eye injury could result.
• Do not place the IR thermometer in a
position which may cause anyone to
intentionally or unintentionally stare into
the laser beam. Serious eye injury could result.
• Do not disassemble the IR thermometer.
There are no user serviceable parts inside.
• Do not modify the IR thermometer in any
way. Modifying the tool may result in hazardous
laser radiation exposure.
• Do not operate the IR thermometer around
children or allow children to operate the
laser. Serious eye injury may result.
• Do not remove or deface warning labels.
Removing labels increases the risk of exposure
to radiation.
• Do not use IR thermometer for testing
temperatures of cooked or uncooked food.
• Do not use for taking human body
temperature.
