SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS

FOR FUTUREREFERENCE. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains- operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) powertool.

a ) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas inviteaccidents. b ) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust orfumes. c ) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to losecontrol.

2) Electrical Safety

a ) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electricshock. b ) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed orgrounded. c ) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electricshock. d ) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electricshock. Batteries Chargers/Charge Times (Minutes) Cat #

Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electricshock. f ) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electricshock.

a ) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personalinjury. b ) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personalinjuries. c ) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invitesaccidents. d ) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personalinjury. e ) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpectedsituations. f ) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in movingparts. g ) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-relatedhazards. h ) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of asecond.

4) Power Tool Use and Care

a ) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it wasdesigned. b ) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must berepaired. c ) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/ or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power toolaccidentally. d ) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrainedusers. e ) Maintain power tools and accesories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained powertools. f ) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier tocontrol. g ) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardoussituation. h ) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpectedsituations.

5) 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 batterypack. b ) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury andfire. 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 afire. 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 orburns. e ) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk ofinjury. f ) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may causeexplosion. g ) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.

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 ismaintained.29 ENGLISH b ) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized serviceproviders. Additional Safety Instructions for Sanders

• Always secure the workpiece by a clamping device or in a bench vise in such a manner that it cannot move while beingmachined.

• Always wear eye protection and a respirator whensanding.

• Sanding of lead-based paint is not recommended. See Precautions to Take When Sanding Paint for additional information before sandingpaint.

• Do not operate the unit without the dust collection bag or dust collectionsystem.

• Do not overload the machine by pressing with excessive force! The best sanding results are achieved with moderate application pressure. The sanding capacity and quality are mainly dependent on the selection of the correctabrasive.

• NEVER attempt to connect two chargerstogether.

• The charger is designed to operate on standard 230V household electrical power. Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the vehicularcharger. Charging a Battery (Fig. B)

1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting

into the charger, making sure the battery pack is fully seated in the charger. The red (charging) light will blink repeatedly indicating that the charging process hasstarted.

3. The completion of charge will be indicated by the red

light remaining ON continuously. The battery pack is fully charged and may be used at this time or left in the charger. To remove the battery pack from the charger, push the battery release button

on the batterypack. NOTE: To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion battery packs, charge the battery pack fully before firstuse. Charger Operation Refer to the indicators below for the charge status of the batterypack. Charge Indicators Charging Fully Charged Hot/Cold Pack Delay*

• The red light will continue to blink, but a yellow indicator light will be illuminated during this operation. Once the battery pack has reached an appropriate temperature, the yellow light will turn off and the charger will resume the chargingprocedure. The compatible charger(s) will not charge a faulty battery pack. The charger will indicate faulty battery by refusing tolight. NOTE: This could also mean a problem with acharger. If the charger indicates a problem, take the charger and battery pack to be tested at an authorised servicecentre. Hot/Cold Pack Delay When the charger detects a battery pack that is too hot or too cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay, suspending charging until the battery pack has reached an appropriate temperature. The charger then automatically switches to the pack charging mode. This feature ensures maximum battery packlife. A cold battery pack will charge at a slower rate than a warm battery pack. The battery pack will charge at that slower rate throughout the entire charging cycle and will not return to maximum charge rate even if the battery packwarms. The DCB118 charger is equipped with an internal fan designed to cool the battery pack. The fan will turn on automatically when the battery pack needs to be cooled. Never operate the charger if the fan does not operate properly or if ventilation slots are blocked. Do not permit foreign objects to enter the interior of thecharger. Electronic Protection System XR Li-Ion tools are designed with an Electronic Protection System that will protect the battery pack against overloading, overheating or deepdischarge. 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 fullycharged. Wall Mounting 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 25.4mm long with a screw head diameter of 7–9mm, screwed into wood to an optimal depth leaving approximately 5.5mm of the screw exposed. Align the slots on the back of the charger with the exposed screws and fully engage them in theslots.31 ENGLISH 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. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into aliquid.

WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable

if exposed to spark orflame.

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 forrecycling.

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 knockedover. 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 shortcircuit. NOTE: Lithium-ion batteries should not be put in checkedbaggage. 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 andCriteria. 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 100Whr. 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 documentationrequirements. 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 applicableregulations. Transporting the FLEXVOLT

Battery The DeWALT FLEXVOLT

battery has two modes: Use andTransport.32 ENGLISH Use Mode: When the FLEXVOLT

battery stands alone or is in a DeWALT 18V product, it will operate as an 18V battery. When the FLEXVOLT

battery is in a 54V or a 108V (two 54V batteries) product, it will operate as a 54Vbattery. Transport Mode: When the cap is attached to the FLEXVOLT

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 hourbatteries. For example, the Transport Example of Use and Transport Label Marking Wh rating might indicate 3x36 Wh, meaning 3 batteries of 36 Wh each. The Use Wh rating might indicate 108Wh (1battery 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 inuse.

2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged

battery pack in a cool, dry place out of the charger for optimalresults. NOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted of charge. The battery pack will need to be recharged beforeuse. Labels on Charger and Battery Pack In addition to the pictographs used in this manual, the labels on the charger and the battery pack may show the followingpictographs: Read instruction manual beforeuse. See Technical Data for chargingtime. Do not probe with conductiveobjects. Do not charge damaged batterypacks. Do not expose towater. Have defective cords replacedimmediately.

1. Press the release button

and firmly pull the battery pack out of the batteryport.

2. Insert battery pack into the charger as described in the

charger section of thismanual. Fuel Gauge Battery Packs Some DeWALT battery packs include a fuel gauge which consists of three green LED lights that indicate the level of charge remaining in the batterypack. To actuate the fuel gauge, press and hold the fuel gauge button. A combination of the three green LED lights will illuminate designating the level of charge left. When the level of charge in the battery is below the usable limit, the fuel gauge will not illuminate and the battery will need to berecharged. NOTE: The fuel gauge is only an indication of the charge left on the battery pack. It does not indicate tool functionality and is subject to variation based on product components, temperature and end-userapplication. Attaching Sanding Discs (Fig. D) Your sander is designed to use 125 mm sanding discs

with an 8-hole dust extraction pattern. Sanding discs for the DCW210 attach with hook andloop. To Attach Sanding Disc to the Sanding Pad (Fig.D)

1. Turn the sander over so that the sanding pad

2. Clean the dust from the sanding pad

3. Hold the pad with one hand to keep it fromrotating.

4. With the other hand, align the holes and place the sanding

directly on top of thepad. NOTE: These sanders are not to be used in drywall applications. Using a sanding screen (e.g., screen used for sanding drywall) directly on the hook and loop pad will not hold and will damage the hooks on the pad. The hooks on the pad will wear very rapidly if left in contact with the work surface while the tool isoperating. Switch (Fig. A) To turn the unit on, depress the side of the dust-protected switch

that corresponds to the symbol “I”. To turn the tool off, depress the side of the switch that corresponds to the symbol“O”. Speed Control Dial (Fig. A) The speed control dial

, shown in FigureA, allows you to increase or decrease speed from 8000–12000 Orbits Per Minute. The optimal speed setting for each application is very much dependent on personal preference. Generally, you will want to use a higher setting on harder materials and a lower34 EnGLIsH setting on softer materials. Material removal rate increases as speedincreases. Dust Extraction (Fig. A, E, G)

WARNING: Since woodworking with a sander produces

dust, always install a dust bag designed in compliance with the applicable directives regarding dustemission.

WARNING: Do not use a dust bag or vacuum extractor

without proper spark protection when sandingmetal. Your sander has two dust extraction methods: a built-in port

which allows either the supplied dust bag

or a shop vacuum system to be connected; and a dust skirt (

, Fig.G). The built-in port utilizes the DeWALT airlock connection making it compatible with the DeWALT dust extractor and airlock accessoryDWV9000. To Attach the Dust Bag

1. While holding the sander, fit the dust bag collar

as shown in FigureE.

clockwise to lock the dust bag

inplace. To Empty the Dust Bag nOTE: Be sure to wear approved eye protection and approved dust mask when performing thisprocedure. For efficient dust extraction, empty the dust collector when it is about one thirdfull.

1. While holding the sander, turn the collar

anticlockwise to unlock the dust bag

2. Remove dust bag from the sander and gently shake or tap

the dust bag toempty.

3. Reattach the dust bag back onto the dust port and lock into

place by turning the dust bag collarclockwise. You may notice that all the dust will not come free from the bag. This will not affect sanding performance but will reduce the sander’s dust collection efficiency. To restore your sander’s dust collection efficiency, depress the spring inside the dust bag when you are emptying it and tap it on the side of the waste bin or dustreceptacle.

CAUTION: Never operate this sander unless a dust collector is in place. Sanding dust exhaust may create a breathinghazard. OPERATION Instructions for Use

CAUTION: Read all saftey warnings, instruction and specifications of the appliance which is paired with thesander. Your sander is equipped with a Wireless Tool Control transmitter which allows your sander to be wirelessly paired with another Wireless Tool Control device, such as a dustextractor. To pair your sander using Wireless Tool Control, press and hold the On/off switch

on the sander and the Wireless Tool Control pairing button on the seperate device. An LED on the seperate device will let you know when your sander has been successfullypaired. Operating the Sander (Fig. F) NOTICE: These sanders are not to be used in drywallapplications. NOTICE: Avoid overloading your sander. Overloading will result in a considerable reduction in speed and finish quality of your work. The unit may also become hot. In this event, run sander at a no load condition for a minute ortwo. To operate your sander, grasp it as shown in Figure F and turn it on. Move the sander in long, sweeping strokes along the surface being sanded, letting the sander do thework. Pushing down on the tool while sanding actually slows the removal rate and produces an inferior quality surface. Be sure to check your work often, this sander is capable of removing material rapidly, especially with coarsepaper. The random orbital action of your sander allows you to sand with the grain or at any angle across it for most sanding jobs. To produce the best finish possible, start with coarse grit sandpaper and change gradually to finer and finer paper. Vacuum and wipe surface with a tack cloth between grit steps. Your sander is designed to sand into small or confined areas. Its small size and light weight make it ideal for overheadwork. The rate at which the dust collection bag fills up will vary with the type of material being sanded and the coarseness of the sandpaper. For best results, empty the bag frequently. When sanding painted surfaces, (see the following for additional precautions when sanding paint) you may find that the sandpaper loads up and clogs with paint. A heat gun will work much better to remove paint before sanding. FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IN HEAT GUN INSTRUCTIONMANUAL. Precautions to Take When Sanding Paint Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of controlling the contaminated dust. The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and pregnantwomen.35 EnGLIsH Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend the following precautions when sanding any paint:

- No children or pregnant women should enter the work area where the paint sanding is being done until all clean up iscompleted. - A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons entering the work area. The filter should be replaced daily or whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing. See your local hardware store for the proper NIOSH- approved dustmask. - NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the work area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint particles. Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking should not be left in the work area where dust would settle onthem.

2. EnVIROnMEnTaL saFETY

- Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the amount of dustgenerated. - Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with plastic sheeting of 4 milsthickness. - Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of paint dust outside the workarea.

3. cLEanInG anD DIsPOsaL

- All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily for the duration of the sanding project. Vacuum filter bags should be changedfrequently. - Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of along with any dust chips or other removal debris. They should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed of through regular trash pick-up procedures. During clean up, children and pregnant women should be kept away from the immediate workarea. - All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children should be washed thoroughly before being usedagain. MAINTENANCE Your DeWALT power tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
