WARNING: To reduce the risk of

injury, user must read this instruction manual and the safety manual.

WARNING: LASER RADIATION.

DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM. Class 2 Laser Product. The DW055PL tool emits a visible laser beam, as shown in Figure

. The laser beam emitted is Laser Class 2 and complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except for conformance with IEC 60825-1, Ed. 3, as described in Laser Notice 56, dated May 8, 2019.

While the laser tool is in operation, be careful not to expose your eyes to the emitting laser beam (red light source). Exposure to a laser beam for an extended time period may be hazardous to your eyes. Do not look into the beam with optical aids.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio and television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help. Canada, Industry Canada (IC) Notices Class B digital circuitry of this device complies with Canadian ICES-003. This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1) this device may not cause interference, and 2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Charging the Battery Fully charge the battery before initial use and whenever the tool has not been used for 6 months or longer.

Only charge product using a certied power adapter that is compliant with applicable country regulations and international/regional safety standards. Using adapters that do not meet applicable safety standards could result in injury.

Locate the port cover on the bottom of the tool (Figure

Using your finger, gently pull the port cover up (Figure

Insert the small end of the USB Recharge Cable into the port on the bottom of the tool, making sure to insert the flat side of the cable into the flat side of the port (Figure

Insert the USB end of the cable into a USB port in a computer or USB power outlet (Figure

Wait approximately 2.5 hours for the battery to fully charge and then disconnect the USB Recharge Cable. When the tool is ON, the battery level appears in the display window (Figure

Point the laser at the top of the tool (Figure

) toward the wall whose distance you need to measure (Figure

) to turn the tool on and display a laser dot on the wall (Figure

When the bottom of the tool is positioned at the correct distance from the wall, click to take the measurement (Figure

View the measurement on the display window (Figure

Changing the Unit of Measure Once the current measurement is taken, you can change the unit of measure from decimal ft (6.21 ft) to fractional ft (6'02"9/16), fractional ft to meters (1.894 m), meters to inches (74 9/16 in), or inches to decimal ft. To change the unit of measurement, press and hold until you see the measurement change (3 seconds). NOTE: If you continue to hold after the measurement changes, the tool will turn off. Re-measuring

When you need to take a new measurement, point the laser toward the wall whose distance you need to measure.

• The previous measurement (Figure

) will be cleared from the display window.

• will change to in the display window (Figure

When the bottom of the tool is positioned at the correct distance from the wall, click to take the measurement (Figure

Turning Off the Tool The tool can be turned off in either of these ways:

• After taking a measurement, press and hold for 5 seconds (until the display window clears).

• If you do not use the tool for 120 seconds, it will automatically turn off. (After 60 seconds, the laser (red dot) will turn off and then after another 60 seconds the unit will turn off.) Warranty Go to www.DEWALT.com for the latest warranty information.6
