Residual Risks; Grounding Instructions - DeWalt DC021 Operating Instructions Manual

• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack
with any chargers other than the ones in
this manual. The worklight/charger and battery
pack are specifically designed to work together.
• In case of damaged power supply cord the
supply cord must be replaced immediately by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similar
qualified person to prevent any hazard.
• This worklight/charger is not intended for
any uses other than charging D
rechargeable batteries. Any other uses
may result in risk of fire, electric shock or
electrocution.
• Do not expose worklight/charger to rain or
snow. The worklight/charger is intended
for household and commercial use.
• Pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting worklight/charger. This will
reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord.
• Make sure 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 an improper
extension cord could result in risk of fire, electric
shock or electrocution.
• Do not place any object on top of worklight/
charger or place the worklight/charger on a
soft surface that might block the ventilation
slots and result in excessive internal heat.
Place the worklight/charger in a position
away from any heat source.
• Do not operate worklight/charger with a
damaged cord or plug — have them replaced
immediately.
• Do not operate the worklight/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 worklight/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 worklight/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.
• The DC021 and DC022 (230 V) worklight/
chargers are designed to operate on 230
Volts, 50 Hz AC (except outlets). The DC022
(115 V) is designed to operate on 115 Volts,
50 Hz AC. It also operates on direct current
(DC) through a fully charged battery pack.
Do not use any other voltage.

E fluorescent light
– burns from touching a hot bulb

Grounding Instructions

The DC022 (230 V) worklight/charger must be
grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
The worklight/chargers are equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and
a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
FOR GROUNDED, CORD-CONNECTED
WORKLIGHT/CHARGERS RATED 16A AND
LOWER AND INTENDED FOR USE ON A NOMINAL
230 V SUPPLY CIRCUIT
The worklight/charger is for use on a nominal
230 V circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks
like the plug in the following illustration.
DANGER: Improper connection of the
equipment grounding conduct or can
result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an
outer surface that is green with yellow
stripes is the equipment grounding
conductor. If repair or replacement of
the cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal. Repairs
shall only be performed by D
E
service agent. Do not modify the plug
provided with the worklight/charger – if
it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a D WALT repair
E
agent.
