Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for battery chargers.
- Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on charger, battery pack, and product using battery pack.
▲ DANGER: Electrocution hazard. 120 volts are present at charging terminals. Do not probe with conductive objects. Electric shock or electrocution may result.
▲WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may result.
CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only DEWALT rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
CAUTION: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the power supply, the exposed charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, 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 charger before attempting to clean. - DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in this manual. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.
• These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging DEWALT rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution. - Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
- Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger. This will reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord.
-
Make sure that 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 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.
- An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
Recommended Minimum Wire Size for Extension Cords tal Length of Cord
| 25 ft. | 50 ft. | 75 ft. | 100 ft. | 125 ft. | 150 ft. | 175 ft. |
| 7.6 m | 15.2 m | 22.9 m | 30.5 m | 38.1 m | 45.7 m | 53.3 m |
Wire Size AWG
| 18 | 18 | 16 | 16 | 14 | 14 | 12 |
- Do not place any object on top of 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 charger with damaged cord or plug.
-
Do not operate 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 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.
- Disconnect the charger from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. This will reduce the risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.
- NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
- 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.
Using Automatic Tune-Up™ Mode
The Automatic Tune-Up™ Mode equalizes or balances the individual cells in the battery pack allowing it to function at peak capacity. Battery packs should be tuned up weekly or after 10 charge/discharge cycles or whenever the pack no longer delivers the same amount of work. To use the Automatic Tune-Up™, place the battery pack in the charger and leave it for at least 8 hours. The charger will cycle through the following modes.
- The red light will blink continuously indicating that the 1-hour charge cycle has started.
- When the 1-hour charge cycle is complete, the light will stay on continuously and will no longer blink. This indicates that the pack is fully charged and can be used at this time.
-
If the pack is left in the charger after the initial 1-hour charge, the charger will begin the Automatic Tune-Up™ mode. This mode continues up to 8 hours or until the individual cells in the battery pack are equalized. The battery pack is ready for use and can be removed at any time during the Automatic Tune-Up™ mode.
-
Once the Automatic Tune Up™ mode is complete, the charger will begin a maintenance charge; the red indicator will remain lit.

Indicator Light Operation

text_image
PACK CHARGING...... PACK CHARGED...... HOT/COLD PACK DELAY...... REPLACE PACK...... PROBLEM POWER LINE......Charge Indicators
Some chargers are designed to detect certain problems that can arise with battery packs. Problems are indicated by the red light flashing at a fast rate. If this occurs, re-insert battery pack into the charger. If the problem persists, try a different battery pack to determine if the charger is OK. If the new pack charges correctly, then the original pack is defective and should be returned to a service center or other collection site for recycling. If the new battery pack elicits the same trouble indication as the original, have the charger tested at an authorized service center.
HOT/COLD PACK DELAY
Some chargers have a Hot/Cold Pack Delay feature: when the charger detects a battery that is hot, it automatically starts a Hot Pack Delay, suspending charging until the battery has cooled. After the battery has cooled, the charger automatically switches to the Pack Charging mode. This feature ensures maximum battery life. The red light flashes long, then short while in the Hot Pack Delay mode.
PROBLEM POWER LINE
Some chargers have a Problem Power Line indicator. When the charger is used with some portable power sources such as generators or sources that convert DC to AC, the charger may temporarily suspend operation, flashing the red light with two fast blinks followed by a pause. This indicates the power source is out of limits.
LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the red light glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery pack fresh and fully charged.
NOTE: A battery pack will slowly lose its charge when kept out of the charger. If the battery pack has not been kept on maintenance charge, it may need to be recharged before use. A battery pack may also slowly lose its charge if left in a charger that is not plugged into an appropriate AC source.
WEAK BATTERY PACKS: Chargers can also detect a weak battery pack. Such batteries are still usable but should not be expected to perform as much work. The charger will indicate to replace battery pack.
Important Charging Notes
- Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the air temperature is between 65^ F and 75^ F ( 18^ - 24^ C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature below +40^ F (+ 4.5^ C), or above +105^ F (+ 40.5^ C). This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.
- The charger and battery pack may become warm to 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.
- If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check current at 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 charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is approximately 65^ F - 75^ F ( 18^ - 24^ C).
d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local service center.
- 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 affect on the battery pack.
-
Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the exposed charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, 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 charger before attempting to clean.
-
Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Don't allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may result.
⚠️CAUTION: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling.
Storage Recommendations
-
The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.
-
Long storage will not harm the battery pack or charger. Under proper conditions, they can be stored for 5 years or more.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE

Digital Laser Detector: DW0772 (Fig. 8-10)
Some laser kits include a DEWALT Digital Laser Detector. The DEWALT Digital Laser Detector allows you to locate a laser beam emitted by a rotary laser in bright light conditions or over long distances. The detector can be used in both indoor and outdoor situations where it is difficult to see the laser beam.

text_image
FIG. 8 DD U V Z AA W X OnWALThe detector is not for use with non-rotating lasers but is compatible with most rotary red-beam or infrared (invisible) beam lasers on the market. It can be set to indicate the location of the beam to either the nearest 1/8" (3 mm) or the nearest 1/25" (1 mm). The detector gives both visual signals through the display window (V) and audio signals through the speaker (W) to indicate the location of the laser beam.
The DEWALT Digital Laser Detector can be used with or without the detector clamp. When used with the clamp, the detector can be positioned on a grade rod, leveling pole, stud or post.
BATTERIES (FIG. 9)
The Digital Laser Detector is powered by a 9 volt battery. To install the battery provided, lift up on the battery compartment cover (X). Place the 9 volt battery in the compartment, aligning the battery as shown on the embossed icon (Y).
DETECTOR CONTROLS (FIG. 10)
The detector is controlled by the power/volume button (Z) and the accuracy mode button (AA).
When the power/volume button is pushed once, the detector is turned on. The top of the display window shows the ON icon (BB), and the volume icon (CC). To decrease the volume of the audible signal that the detector emits when it senses a laser beam, push the button again; one of the half circles next to the horn icon will disappear. To turn off the audible signal push the button a third time; the volume icon will dissapear. The DEWALT Digital

THE DETECTOR'S SPEAKER MAKES NO SOUND.
- Ensure that the detector is on.
- Press the power/volume button. It will toggle from high, to low, to mute.
- Ensure that the rotary laser is spinning and that it is emitting a laser beam.
- If the detector is still not making any sound, take it to a DEWALT service center.
THE DETECTOR DOES NOT RESPOND TO A STATIONARY LASER BEAM.
- The BWALT Digital Laser Detector has been designed to work only with rotary lasers.
THE DETECTOR GIVES OFF A TONE BUT THE LCD DISPLAY WINDOW DOES NOT FUNCTION.
- If the detector is very cold, allow it to warm up in a heated area.
- If the LCD display window is still not functioning, take the detector to a DEWALT service center.
Construction Grade Rod
▲DANGER: NEVER attempt to use a grade rod in a storm or near overhanging electric wires. Death or serious personal injury will occur.
Some laser kits include a grade rod. The DEWALT Grade Rod is marked with measurement scales on both sides and is constructed in telescoping sections. A spring-loaded button actuates a lock to hold the grade rod at various lengths.
The front of the grade rod has the measurement scale starting at the bottom. Use this for measuring from the ground up when grading or leveling jobs.
The back of the grade rod is designed to measure the height of ceilings, joists, etc. Fully extend the top section of the grade rod until the button locks into the previous section. Extend that section either until it locks into the adjacent section or until the grade rod touches the ceiling or joist. The height is read where the last extended section exits the previous lower section, as shown in Figure 13.
FIG. 13

Using the Laser with a Wall Mount (Fig. 14, 15)
Some laser kits include a Wall Mount. It can be used for attaching the tool to track or ceiling angle and to aid in acoustical ceiling installation. Follow the directions below for using the wall mount.
CAUTION: Before attaching the laser level to wall track or ceiling angle, be sure that the track or angle is properly secured.
- Place the laser on the mounting base (KK) aligning the hole (LL) on the bottom of the laser with the hole (MM) in the mounting base. Turn the mounting knob (NN) to secure the laser.
- With the wall mount measuring scale (OO) facing you, loosen the wall mount clamp locking knob (PP) to open the clamp jaws.
- Position the clamp jaws around the wall track or ceiling angle and tighten the wall mount clamp locking knob (PP) to close the clamp jaws onto the track. Be sure that the wall mount clamp locking knob is securely tightened before proceeding.

text_image
FIG. 14 PP OO MM KK SS RR NN PP LL QQACAUTION: Always use a ceiling wire hanger or equivalent material, in addition to the wall mount clamp locking knob, to help secure the laser level while mounting it to a wall. Thread the wire through the handle of the laser level. DO NOT thread the wire through the protective metal cage. Additionally, screws may be used to fasten the wall mount directly to the wall as a back. FIG. 15 SS directly to the wall as a back up. Screw holes (QQ) are located at the top of the wall mount.

- Turn the adjustment knob (TT), located to the right of the wall mount, to move the laser level up and down to set your height. Use the wall mount measuring scale (OO) to pinpoint your mark.
NOTE: It may be helpful to turn the power on and turn the rotary head so that it puts a dot on one of the laser scales. The DEWALT target card is marked at 1-1/2" (38 mm), therefore, it may be easiest to set the offset of the laser to 1-1/2" (38 mm) below the track.
- Once you have positioned the laser at the desired height, tighten the locking knob (SS) to maintain this position.
LASER MAINTENANCE
- Under some conditions, the glass lens inside the rotary head may collect some dirt or debris. This will affect beam quality and operating range. The lens should be cleaned with a cotton swab moistened with water as shown in Figure 16.
- The flexible rubber shield can be cleaned with a wet lint-free cloth such as a cotton cloth. USE WAT cleansers or solvents. Allow the ur
- To maintain the accuracy of your work, check the calibration of the laser often. Refer to Field Calibration Check.
- Calibration checks and other maintenance repairs can be performed by DEWALT service centers. Two free calibration checks are included under the DEWALT One Year Free Service Contract.

- When the laser is not in use, store it in the kit box provided.
- Do not store your laser in the kit box if the laser is wet. Dry exterior parts with a soft, dry cloth and allow the laser to air dry.
- Do not store your laser at temperatures below 0°F (-18°C) or above 105°F (41°C).
▲WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the unit; never immerse any part of the unit into a liquid. Never use compressed air to clean the laser.
Field Calibration Check (Fig. 17, 18)
Field calibration checks should be done frequently. This section provides instructions for performing simple field calibration checks of your DEWALT Rotary Laser. Field calibration checks do not calibrate the laser. That is, these checks do not correct errors in the leveling or plumbing capability of the laser. Instead, the checks indicate whether or not the laser is providing a correct level and plumb line. These checks cannot take the place of professional calibration performed by a DEWALT service center.
LEVEL CALIBRATION CHECK (X-AXIS)
- Set up a tripod between two walls that are at least 50 feet apart. The exact location of the tripod is not critical.
- Mount the laser unit on the tripod so that the X-axis points directly toward one of the walls.
- Turn the laser unit on and allow it to self-level.
- Mark and measure points A and B on the walls as shown in Figure 17.

text_image
FIG. 17 BEAM A B L- Turn the entire laser unit 180^ so the X-axis points directly toward the opposite wall.
- Allow the laser unit to self-level, and mark and measure points AA and BB on the walls as shown in Figure 18.

text_image
FIG. 18 LASER UNIT ROTATED 180° BEAM AA L L BB- Calculate the total error using the equation:
Total Error = (AA - A) - (BB - B)
- Compare total error to the allowable limits shown in the following table.
| Distance between walls | Allowable Error |
| L = 50 ft. (15.3 m) 1/8" | (3 mm) |
| L = 75 ft. (22.9 m) 3/16" | (4.5 mm) |
| L = 100 ft. (30.5 m) 1/4" | (6 mm) |
LEVEL CALIBRATION CHECK (Y-AXIS)
Repeat the procedure above, but with the laser unit positioned so the Y-axis is pointed directly toward the walls.
PLUMB ERROR CHECK (FIG. 19)
- Using a standard plumb bob as a reference, mark the top and bottom of a wall. (Be sure to mark the wall and not the floor and ceiling.)
- Position the rotary laser securely on the floor approximately 3' (1 m) from the wall.
- Turn the laser on, and point the dot at the mark on the bottom of the wall. Then, using the up/down arrows on the remote control, rotate the dot upwards. If the center of the dot scans over the mark on the top of the wall, the laser is properly calibrated.
NOTE: This check should be done with a wall no shorter than the tallest wall for which this laser will be used.
