General Information

The DXRH012E is safe for indoor use in small recreational enclosures having means for providing combustion air and ventilation, such as enclosed porches, cabins, fishing huts, trailers, tent trailers, tents, truck caps and vans. It may be used for emergency indoor heating when connected disposable 465g propane (G31) OR 450g Butane/Propane mixture (G30+G31) cartridge and for indoor use in commercial enclosures, provided that there is sufficient air for combustion and ventilation (specified in OPERATING PRECAUTIONS page 5).

NOTE: This heater can be used outdoors, but may experience nuisance shutoffs in certain wind conditions.

- A DEWALT battery is necessary only for Fan, USB Power Outlets, and Light operation.

- A Propane gas supply is necessary only for Heating operation.

- When the heater is cold or at room temperature, it will take a few minutes for the burner tile to turn bright orange. This is normal and the heater is working properly. If burner tile is visibly flaming, turn heater off and call a qualified service technician.

- When the unit is lit, there should be about a quarter inch (.635 cm) border around the tile that will not turn bright orange. This is normal.

- When operating the heater for the first time, the top area of the reflector may discolor. This is also normal and is no reason for concern.

- The protective grill on the front of this heater is coated with a special high-temperature resistant paint. When the heater is used for the first time, the grill may give off noticeable smoke or fumes. This is normal and will not occur during subsequent uses. The fumes are not harmful.

- When operating the heater at altitudes over 2.13km above sea level, the unit may not burn as bright as in lower altitudes. This is normal. At higher altitudes the heater may shut off. If this happens provide fresh air, wait 5 minutes, and then re-light. Due to local atmospheric conditions heater may not re-light.

- When moving heater when lit or bumping heater setting it down, the tip over switch may shut off heater. If this happens, relight.

- Due to natural operation of small cartridges, condensation may build up on cartridge and drip on surface under heater. Sometimes this condensation may freeze due to the extreme cold caused when propane (G31) vaporizes. This is normal and no reason for alarm.

- Operating time will vary depending on the heater setting and the supply cartridge size. Up to 1.5 to 3.5 hours on a 450G 70/30 Butane/Propane mixture (G30+G31) cartridge. Due to the properties of Propane gas (G31), run times can be significantly reduced when operating continuously at temperatures below -6.6 C.

• Do not use in unventilated areas
• The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed
• Proper ventilation air must be provided to support the combustion air requirements of the heater being used.
• Refer to the specification section of the heater's manual, heater dataplate, or contact the factory to determine combustion air ventilation requirements of the heater.
• Lack of proper ventilation air will lead to improper combustion
• Improper combustion can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning leading to serious injury or death. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning can include headaches, dizziness and difficulty in breathing.

Fuel Gas Odour

Propane gas(G31) and butane/propane mixture (G30+G31) gases have man-made odourants added specifically for detection of fuel gas leaks. If a gas leak occurs you should be able to smell the fuel gas. Since Propane (G31) is heavier than air you should smell for the gas odour low to the floor. ANY GAS Odour IS YOUR SIGNAL TO GO INTO IMMEDIATE ACTION!

• Do not take any action that could ignite the fuel gas.
• Do not operate any electrical switches.
• Do not pull any power supply or extension cords.
• Do not light matches or any other source of flame.
• Do not use your telephone.
• Get everyone out of the building and away from the area immediately. Close all propane gas (G31) tank or cylinder fuel supply valves, or the main fuel supply valve located at the meter if you use natural gas.
• Propane gas (G31) is heavier than air and may settle in low areas. When you have reason to suspect a propane leak, keep out of all low areas.
• Use a telephone remote from the area of the leak and call your fuel gas supplier and your fire department. Do not re-enter the building or area.

• Stay out of the building and away from the area until declared safe by the firefighters and your fuel gas supplier.

• FINALLY, let the fuel gas service person and the firefighters check for escaped gas. Have them air out the building and area before you return. Properly trained service people must repair any leaks, check for further leakages, and then relight the appliance for you.

• Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot smell the odour of the man-made chemical added to propane gas (G31). You must determine if you can smell the odourant in these fuel gases.
• Learn to recognize the odour of propane gas (G31).
• Smoking can decrease your ability to smell. Being around an odour for a period of time can affect your sensitivity to that particular odour. Odours present in animal confinement buildings can mask fuel gas odour.
• The odourant in propane gas (G31) is colorless and the intensity of its odour can fade under some circumstances. If there is an underground leak, the movement of gas through the soil can filter the odourant.
• Propane gas (G31) odour may differ in intensity at different levels. Since Propane gas (G31) is heavier than air, there may be more odour at lower levels.
• Always be sensitive to the slightest gas odour. If you continue to detect any gas odour, no matter how small, treat it as a serious leak. Immediately go into action as discussed previously.

Odour Fading - No Odour Detected

ATTENTION - Critical Points to Remember!

• Propane gas (G31) or Butane/Propane mixture (G30+G31) has a distinctive odour. Learn to recognize these odours. (Reference Fuel Gas Odour and Odour Fading sections on this same page)
• Even if you are not properly trained in the service and repair of the heater, ALWAYS be consciously aware of the odours of propane gas(G31) and natural gas.
• If you have not been properly trained in repair and service of propane gas(G31) or Butane/Propane mixture(G30+G31) then do not attempt to light heater, perform service or repairs, or make any adjustments to the heater on the propane (G31) or Butane/Propane mixture(G30+G31) gas fuel system.
• A periodic sniff test around the heater or at the heater's joints; i.e. hose, connections, etc., is a good safety practice under any conditions. If you smell even a small amount of gas, CONTACT YOUR FUEL GAS SUPPLIER IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT WAIT!

Electronic Operation

When a charged DeWALT battery is inserted into the battery dock, Figure 7, the heater may activate the following electronic features. The battery inserts into the battery dock upright, with contacts facing the roof of the dock. These Electronic features may be used individually or simultaneously. When any of them are in use the status light, Figure 8, will illuminate with a steady green glow to visually signal that an electronic feature is active. If the status light is blinking see the diagnostics section below.

Lights

Toggling the Light control button on the back of the heater activates/deactivates the lights in the handle bar. The Lights operate with any orientation of the heater and handle.

Fan

Toggling the Fan control button on the back of the heater activates/deactivates the fan. Using the fan while the heater is active enhances the heaters convective heating ability. Using the fan while the heater is inactive will make the heater into a fan, meaning that you may enjoy the DXRH012E no matter the season!

USB Power Outlets

Inside the USB Compartment which houses the pulse igniter are also 3 USB Power Outlets, a power button, and a status light. Toggling the power button will activate/deactivate the USB Power Outlets with 5 Volts of DC current at 2 amps rating, signaled by illumination of the status light. The USB Power Outlets facilitate the charging or powering of up to three USB devices. NOTICE: The USB power should be shut off when not in use. Failure to do so may cause battery to drain.

    D["STATUS LIGHT"] --> E["○"]

Status Light Diagnostics: Steady On/Off Blinking

If the Status Light is blinking on and off steadily this is an indication that the DrWALT battery is low on charge. See Battery Charging Precautions and Instructions, starting on page 9. The battery must be removed from the heater in order to charge.

Status Light Diagnostics: Double Flash

(2 Blinks, 1 Pause)

If the Status Light is "Double Flashing" (repetition of 2 rapid blinks followed by a pause) this is an indication that the battery is outside of its operating temperature range.

Maintenance

Always keep the heater area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.

Keep the vent areas (slots in the bottoms and the top at the front and rear of heater) clear at all times.

Visually inspect the pilot flame and burner periodically during use. The pilot flame should be blue in color (not yellow) and will extend beyond the thermocouple. The flame will surround the thermocouple just below the tip, see Figure 8.

A slight yellow flame may occur where the pilot flame and main burner flame meet. The burner should be bright orange (with a slight blue color around the border, a red-orange haze that is visible on the ceramic tile is acceptable) and without a noticeable flame. A blue flame that rolls out at the top of the ceramic tile indicates an accumulation of dust, lint or spider webs inside the casing assembly and main burner assembly. If the pilot is yellow or the burner has a noticeable flame, cleaning may be required. Use the following procedure to inspect the casing assembly and main burner assembly. It is necessary to periodically check the burner orifice and burner venturi tube to make sure they are clear of insects/nests or spider webs that may accumulate over time. A clogged tube can lead to a fire.

1. Allow heater to thoroughly cool before performing any maintenance.
2. Remove disposable 465g cylinder from heater or turn OFF gas supply at remote cylinder valve, and disconnect hose from heater.
3. Remove (4) four screws that secure the rear cover to the Heater.
4. Pivot cover outward from bottom. Release from 2 top clips. Set aside.
5. Remove (4) four burner retaining screws and fuel line from burner assembly.
6. Remove burner assembly from back of housing.
7. Inspect interior of housing for accumulation of dust, insect or spider webs. If necessary, clean interior housing with a vacuum cleaner or apply air pressure. Do not damage any

components within the housing assembly when you are cleaning.

1. Inspect and clean main burner orifice (threaded into orifice holder). Orifice holder is attached to the burner assembly venturi with (2) two screws.
2. Inspect and clean pilot (mounted to bracket) by using a vacuum or apply air pressure through the holes in the pilot indicated by the arrows in Figure 9.

WARNING: Never use needles, wires, or similar cylindrical objects to clean the pilot to avoid damaging the calibrated orifice that cor

1. Apply air pressure (max. 30 psi) into ceramic tile of burner assembly and the venture tube to remove dust, lint or spider webs.

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 100 Whr.

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 documentation requirements.

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 applicable regulations.

TRANSPORTING THE FLEXVOLT BATTERY

The DeWALT FLEXVOLT battery has two modes: Use and Transport.

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 54V battery.

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 hour batteries.

Transport Wh rating indicates 3 x 36 Wh, meaning 3 batteries of 36 Watt hours each. The Use Wh rating indicates 108 Watt hours (1 battery implied).

Chargers

The DCB118 charger accepts 18V Li-Ion XR and XR FLEXVOLT battery packs (DCB180, DCB181, DCB182, DCB183, DCB183B, DCB184, DCB184B, DCB185 and DCB546).

DeWALT chargers require no adjustment and are designed to be as easy as possible to operate.

Charging a Battery (Fig. 10)

1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting battery pack.

2. Insert the battery pack into the charger, making sure the battery pack is fully seated in the charger. The red (charging) light will blink continuously indicating that the charging process has started.

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 battery pack.

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

Refer to the indicators below for the charge status of the battery pack.

* 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 charging procedure.

CHARGE INDICATORS

CHARGING	— — — —
FULLY CHARGED	—
HOT/COLD PACK DELAY	— — — | —

The charger will not charge a faulty battery pack. The charger will indicate faulty battery pack by refusing to light.

NOTE: This could also mean a problem with a charger.

If the charger indicates a problem, take the charger and battery pack to be tested at an authorized service center.

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 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 pack warms.

XR 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 if the Electronic Protection System engages. If this occurs, place the lithium-ion battery pack on the charger until it is fully charged.

Important Charging Notes

1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the air temperature is between 18^-24^ . DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature below +4.5 °C, or above +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:

4. Check operation of the receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance;

5. Check to see if the receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns the power off when you turn out the lights;
6. Move the charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is approximately 18° – 24 °C;

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

8. 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 it under these conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no adverse effect on the battery pack.

9. 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 charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean it.

10. Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any other liquid.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Don't allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shock may result.

⚠ WARNING: Burn hazard. Do not submerge the battery pack in any liquid or allow any liquid to enter the battery pack. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return it to a service center for recycling.

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 25.4 mm long, with a screw head diameter of 7–9 mm, screwed into wood to an optimal depth leaving approximately 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.

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 a liquid.

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 in use.

2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged battery pack in a cool dry place out of the charger for optimal results.

NOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted of charge. The battery pack will need to be recharged before use.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE

Electrical Safety

Always check that the battery pack voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate. Also make sure that the voltage of your charger corresponds to that of your mains.

Your DEWALT charger is double insulated in accordance with EN60335; therefore no earth wire is required.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a specially prepared cord available through the DeWALT service organisation.

Mains Plug Replacement (U.K. Only)

If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:

• Safely dispose of the old plug.
• Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in the plug.
• Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.

⚠ WARNING: No connection is to be made to the earth terminal.

Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good quality plugs. Recommended fuse: 3 A.
