• Remove dead batteries immediately and dispose of
per local codes.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children.
• Remove batteries when the device is not in use.
• Use only the charger specified for your rechargeable
battery pack.
• Disconnect the battery pack from the laser before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing the laser. Such preventative safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the laser accidentally.
• When the 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.
• Use the laser only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.
• 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.
• Do not use a battery pack or laser that is damaged or
modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion, or
risk of injury.
• Do not expose a battery pack or laser to fire
or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above 265° F (130° C) may cause an
explosion.
• Follow all the charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack outside of the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or
at temperatures outside of the specified range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Powering the Laser
This laser can be powered by either of these battery
packs:
• A DEWALT 12V MAX* Li-ion Battery Pack
(DCB120, DCB122, DCB123, DCB125, or DCB127).
*Maximum initial battery voltage (measured without a
workload) is 12 volts. Nominal voltage is 10.8.
• A DEWALT AA Starter Pack with 4 new high-quality
name brand AA batteries. Note: The AA Starter Pack
is only recommended for use with the red laser
(DW089LR or DW0811LR).
Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
Charging the Li-ion Battery
1. If the DEWALT 12V MAX* Li-ion battery pack is
attached to the laser, remove it.
• Rotate the laser so it is easier to access the
battery pack (Figure C1).
• While pressing down on the release button on the
battery pack (Figure C2), pull the battery pack
up to unlock it from the laser.
• Pull the battery pack the rest of the way up and
out of the laser (Figure C3).
2. Plug the charger cord into an electrical outlet.
3. Slide the battery pack into the charger until it snaps
in place (Figure B1). On the charger, the left
indicator light will flash to let you know the battery is
being charged.
4. After the battery is fully-charged (the indicator light
on the charger no longer flashes), press and hold
the release button on the battery pack (Figure
B2) and slide the pack out of the charger
(Figure B3).
5. Slide the battery pack down in the laser until it
snaps in place (Figure B4).
