GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, indications and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) Work Area Safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
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 or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

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 electric shock.
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 or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
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 electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) Personal Safety

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 personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
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 energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
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 personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away

from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

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-related hazards.

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 a second.

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 was designed.

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 be repaired.

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 tool accidentally.

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 untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools and accessories. 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 power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

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 hazardous situation.

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 unexpected situations.

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 battery pack.

b) Use power 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.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 265 °F (130 °C) may cause explosion.

b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.

Safety Instructions for Routers

a) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the bit may contact its own cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electrical shock.
b) Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
c) Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of the tool.
d) Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the tool to resist starting torque. Maintain a firm grip on the tool at all times while operating.
e) Keep hands away from cutting area above and below the base. Never reach under the workpiece for any reason. Keep the router base firmly in contact with the workpiece when cutting.
f) Never touch the bit immediately after use. Danger of burning bit—may extremely hot.
g) Be sure that the motor has stopped completely before you lay the router down. If the bit is still spinning when the tool is laid down, it could cause injury or damage.

English

h) Be sure that the router bit is clear of the workpiece before starting the motor. If the bit is in contact with the workpiece when the motor starts, it could make the router jump, causing damage or injury.

i) The permitted speed of the cutting bit must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. If cutting bits run faster than their rated speed, they may break and fly off.

j) Always follow the bit manufacturer's speed recommendations as some bit designs require specific speeds for safety or performance. If you are unsure of the proper speed or are experiencing any type of problem, contact the bit manufacturer.

k) Do not use router bits with a diameter in excess of 2-1/2" (63 mm) in this tool.

1) Keep cutting pressure constant. Too high of a pressure can overload the motor or damage the workpiece.

m) Provide clearance under workpiece for bit when through-cutting. There is a risk of cutting into objects below the workpiece.

n) Do not press spindle lock button while the motor is running. Doing so can damage the spindle lock.

o) Always make sure the work surface is free from nails and other foreign objects. Cutting into a nail can cause the bit and the tool to jump.

p) Before starting the motor, clear the work area of all foreign objects.

q) Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of the tool.

r) Maintain firm grip with both hands on tool to resist starting torques. Maintain a firm grip on the tool at all times while operating.

s) Keep hands away from cutting area above and below the base. Never reach under the workpiece for any reason. Keep the router base firmly in contact with the workpiece when cutting.

t) NEVER touch the bit immediately after use. It may be extremely hot.

u) Provide clearance under workpiece for bit when through-cutting.

v) Use sharp bits. Dull bits may cause the router to swerve or stall under pressure.

w) Do not use blunt or damaged cutting bits. Blunt or damaged cutting bits cause increased friction, create imbalances and may become jammed.

x) DO NOT CUT METAL.

Additional Safety Information

WARNING: Never modify the power tool or any part of damage or personal injury could result.

WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),

• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,

• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sanding, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

- lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

- Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals. Direct particles away from face and body.

- Use the appropriate dust extractor vacuum to remove the vast majority of static and airborne dust. Failure to remove static and airborne dust could contaminate the working environment or pose an increased health risk to the operator and those in close proximity.

- Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control and injury.

• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers

WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, and cautionary markings for the battery pack, charger and product. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

  • DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than a DEWALT charger. DEWALT chargers and battery packs are specifically designed to work together.
    • These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging DEWALT rechargeable battery packs. Charging other types of battery packs may cause them to overheat and burst, resulting in personal injury, property damage, fire, electric shock or electrocution.
  • Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
  • Do not allow water or any liquid to enter charger.
  • Pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger. This will reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord.
  • Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
  • Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
  • When operating a charger outdoors, always provide a dry location and use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
  • An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the heavier the cord and thus the greater its capacity. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and

overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on total length of all extension cords plugged together, and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.

  • Do not place any object on top of the charger or place the charger on a soft surface that might block the ventilation slots and result in excessive internal heat. Place the charger in a position away from any heat source. The charger is ventilated through slots in the top and the bottom of the housing.
  • Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord or plug. Have them replaced immediately.
  • Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any way. Take it to an authorized service center.
  • Do not disassemble the charger; take it to an authorized service center when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.
  • The charger is designed to operate on standard 120V household electrical power. Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the vehicular charger.
  • 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 the charger cavities and ventilation slots.
    • Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity.

Charging a Battery (Fig. C)

NOTE: To ensure maximum performance and life of Li-Ion battery packs, charge the battery pack fully before first use.

  1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting battery pack.
  2. Insert and fully seat battery pack. The charging light(s) will continuously blink indicating that the charging process has started.

For 2-Stage Chargers (DCB1102, DCB1104, DCB1106, DCB1112, DCB094)

Stage 1 Charging: Blink indicator represents the first charge cycle that charges the majority of the battery's capacity. Stage 2 Charging: Blink indicator represents the remainder, or top off charge process, for the battery to reach full capacity.

  1. Charging is complete when the charging light(s) remain(s) continuously ON. The battery pack is fully charged and may be removed and used at this time or left in the charger.

NOTE: To remove the battery pack, some chargers require the battery pack release button to be pressed.

WARNING: Only charge batteries in air temperature 10^ F (4.5 °C) and below 104^ F (40 °C).

Charger will not charge a faulty battery pack, which may be indicated by the charging light(s) staying OFF. Take charger and battery pack to an authorized service center if light(s) stay(s) OFF.

NOTE: Refer to label near charging light(s) on charger for blink patterns. Older chargers may have additional information and/or may not have a yellow indicator light.

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 pack life.

A cold battery pack may charge at a slower rate than a warm battery pack.

The hot/cold pack delay will be indicated by the red light(s) continuing to blink but with the yellow light continuously ON. Once the battery pack has reached an appropriate temperature, the yellow light will turn OFF and the charger will resume the charging procedure.

DCB118 and DCB1112 Chargers

The DCB118 and DCB1112 chargers are 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 the charger.

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 and the battery pack will need to be recharged.

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. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local service center.

  1. You may charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no adverse effect on the battery pack.

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.

Wall Mounting

Some DEWALT 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.

*The speeds in this chart are approximate and are for reference only. Your router may not exactly produce the speed listed for the dial setting.

NOTE: Make several light passes instead of one heavy pass for better quality work.

Using the Router (Fig. A, L, O)

CANTION: Turn the router on before plunging the bit has into the workpiece.

CAUTION:

  • Excessive cutting may cause overload of the motor or difficulty in controlling the tool, the depth of cut should not be more than 19/32" (15 mm) at a pass when cutting grooves with a 5/16" (8 mm) diameter bit.
  • When cutting grooves with a 25/32" (20 mm) diameter bit, the depth of cut should not be more than 3/16" (5 mm) at a pass.
  • For extra deep grooving, make two or three passes with progressively deeper bit settings.

CAUTION:

• After long periods of working at low speeds, allow the machine to cool down by running it for three minutes at maximum speed, with no load.

All common routing tasks can be performed with the plunge cut router on all types of wood and plastic:

-Grooving
- Rabbeting
- Recessing
- Veining
- Profiling

NOTE: Only carbide-tipped bits should be used on panels faced with plastic laminates. The hard laminates will quickly dull steel bits.

NOTE: For better plunge sliding movement, frequently clean the plunge rods 36 of dust or debris with a DRY cloth only. If the plunging movement is not moving as smooth as desired, lubricate the plunge rods with a dry Teflon™ lubricant.

  1. After setting the cutting depth as described, locate the router so that the bit is directly over the place you will be cutting.
  2. With the router running, lower the unit smoothly down into the workpiece. DO NOT JAM THE ROUTER DOWN.
  3. When the tool reaches the pre-set depth, push the plunge release lever 7 to lock.
  4. When you have finished routing, push down on the plunge lock lever 6 to unlock and let the spring lift the router directly out of the workpiece.
  5. Always feed the router opposite to the direction in which the bit is rotating. Refer to Fig. L.

Moulding Natural Timbers

WARNING: When routing always lock the plunge locking lever.

When edge moulding natural timbers, always mould the end grain first, followed by the long grain. This ensures that if there is breakout, it will be removed when the long grain is routed.

Worklight LEDs (Fig. A, T)

CAUTION: Do not stare into worklight. Serious eye injury could result.

Two worklight LEDs 44 are located next to the collet 12.

  1. To turn on the worklight, switch on the on/off trigger switch 3. Worklights will remain on 20 seconds after the on/off switch is moved to the off position.

NOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work surface and is not intended to be used as a flashlight.

NOTE: If worklights flash, check the charge on the battery; it could be low. If they still flash with a charged battery, the unit should be taken to a service center for evaluation.

Direction Of Feed (Fig. L)

WARNING: Avoid climb-cutting (cutting in direction opposite than shown in Fig. L). Climb-cutting increases the chance for loss of control resulting in possible injury. When climb-cutting is required (backing around a corner), exercise extreme caution to maintain control of router. Make smaller cuts and remove minimal material with each pass.

The direction of feed is very important when routing and can make the difference between a successful job and a ruined project. The figures show the proper direction of feed for some typical cuts. A general rule to follow is to move the router in a counterclockwise direction on an outside cut and a clockwise direction on an inside cut.

Shape the outside edge of a piece of stock by following these steps:

  1. Shape the end grain, left to right
  2. Shape the straight grain side moving left to right
  3. Cut the other end grain side
  4. Finish the remaining straight grain edge

Feed Load

Heavy Load Indicator LED (Fig. U)

Your tool is equipped with a heavy load indicator LED 39. If the heavy load Indicator LED white triangle is flashing, slow down the speed of the tool.

The speed at which the bit is fed into the wood must not be too fast that the motor slows down, or too slow that the bit leaves burn marks on the face of the wood.

NOTE: Practice judging the speed by listening to the sound of the motor when routing.

Anti-Rotation System (Fig. U)

Your tool is equipped with the DEWALT anti-rotation system. This feature senses the motion of the tool and shuts the tool down if necessary. The red LED indicator 40 illuminates when the anti-rotation system is engaged.

INDICATOR DIAGNOSIS SOLUTION

OFF Tool is functioning normallyFollow all warnings and instructions when operating the tool.
SOLID RED Anti-Rotation System has been activated (ENGAGED)With the tool properly supported, release trigger. The tool will function normally when the trigger is depressed again and the indicator light will go out.

Sequence of Plunging (Fig. A)

  1. Plunge down and lock the motor carriage, by pushing the plunge release lever 7.
  2. Perform the desired routing operation.
  3. Push down the plunge lock lever 6 and the motor carriage returns to the normal position.

Side Fence Routing (Fig. J)

The side fence is used to guide the router when moulding, edge profiling or rebating the edge of a workpiece or when routing grooves and slots in the center of the workpiece, parallel to the edge.

The edge of the workpiece must be straight and true.

The strips 31 are adjustable and should be set ideally with a 1/8" (3 mm) gap each side of the bit.

Using a Side Fence (Fig. A, K)

CAUTION: Ensure working position is comfortable and a desirable working height.

  1. Ensure the wing bolts 28 are fully released. Slide the guide rods 26 into the base plate 10 and tighten the wing bolts.
  2. Adjust the adjustment knob 29 to the required distance and clamp in place with the wing bolts.
  3. Then lower the bit height until the bit is just above the workpiece.
  4. Fine adjustments are possible by loosening the wing bolt and adjusting the side fence adjustment knob.

ENGLISH

  1. Tighten the wing bolt to secure the position.
    NOTE: One revolution of the adjustment knob equals 3/64" (1.0 mm) of side feed.
  2. Lower the bit onto the workpiece and set the bit height to the required distance. Refer to Adjusting the Plunge Routing Depth.
  3. Switch the router on and after the bit reaches full speed, gently lower the bit into the workpiece and lock the plunge.
  4. Feed along the workpiece, keeping sideways pressure to ensure the side fence does not wander away from the workpiece edge and downward pressure on the inside hand to prevent the router from tipping.
  5. When finished, raise the router, secure with the plunge lock lever 6 and switch the router off.

NOTE: When starting the cut, keep the pressure on the front cheek until the back cheek contacts the workpiece edge.

NOTE: At the end of the cut, keep pressure on the back cheek until the cut is finished. This will prevent the router bit swinging in at the end of the workpiece and nipping the corner.

Centering the Subbase (Fig. A, M)

If you need to adjust, change, or replace the subbase, a centering tool is recommended (refer to Accessories). The centering tool consists of a centering cone.

To adjust the subbase, follow the steps below.

  1. Loosen but do not remove the subbase screws 32 so the subbase moves freely.
  2. Insert the centering cone 20 through the hole of the subbase into the collet 12 and tighten the collet. This will center the subbase.
  3. With the centering cone in place, tighten the subbase screws.

NOTE: The adapter subbase should be centered without the guide bushing attached. Refer to the section Fitting a Guide Bushing.

Fine Adjustment of Routing Depth (Fig. Q)

The micro height adjustment 17 at the bottom end of the depth stop bar/rod 14 can be used to make minor adjustments.

  1. To decrease the cutting depth, rotate the micro height adjustment clockwise (looking down from the top of the router).
  2. To increase the cutting depth, rotate the micro height adjustment counterclockwise (looking down from the top of the router).

NOTE: One complete rotation of the micro height adjustment results in a change of about 5/128" or 0.04" (1 mm) in depth.

Using the Rotating Turret for Stepped Cuts (Fig. H)

If the depth of cut required is more than is acceptable in a single pass, rotate the multiple position turret stop 13 so that the depth stop bar/rod 14 lines up with taller multiple position turret stop initially. After each cut, rotate the multiple position turret stop so that the depth stop lines up with shorter post until the final depth of cut is reached. Refer to the section Multiple Position Turret Stop.

WARNING: Do not change the multiple position turret stop while the router is running. This will place your hands too near the bit.

Cutting with the Plunge Base (Fig. A, E, O)

NOTE: The depth of cut is locked in the plunge base's default state. The plunge lock requires user actuation to enable the "release to lock" plunge mechanism.

NOTE: Grip both main handles 5 while operating.

  1. Turn the router on before plunging the bit into the workpiece.
  2. Depress the plunge lock lever 6 and plunge the router down until the bit reaches the set depth.
  3. Push the plunge release lever 7 when desired depth is reached.
    NOTE: Releasing the plunge lock lever automatically locks the motor in place.
    NOTE: If additional resistance is needed, use the hand to depress the plunge lock lever.
  4. Perform the cut.
  5. Depressing the plunge lock lever will disable the locking mechanism allowing the router bit to disengage from the workpiece.
  6. Turn the router off.
