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.

this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
seriousinjury.
b ) Operations such as grinding, wire brushing,
polishing or cutting‑off are not recommended to
be performed with this power tool. Operations for
which the power tool was not designed may create a
hazard and cause personalinjury.
c ) Do not use accessories which are not specifically
designed and recommended by the tool
manufacturer. Just because the accessory can
be attached to your power tool, it does not assure
safeoperation.
d ) The rated speed of the accessory must be at least
equal to the maximum speed marked on the
power tool. Accessories running faster than their
RATED SPEED can break and flyapart.
e ) The outside diameter and the thickness of your
accessory must be within the capacity rating of
your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot
be adequately guarded orcontrolled.
f ) Threaded mounting of accessories must match
the grinder spindle thread. For accessories
mounted by flanges, the arbour hole of the
accessory must fit the locating diameter of the
flange. Accessories that do not match the mounting
hardware of the power tool will run out of balance,
vibrate excessively and may cause loss ofcontrol.
g ) Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each
use inspect the backing pad for cracks, tear
or excess wear. If power tool or accessory is
dropped, inspect for damage or install an
undamaged accessory. After inspecting and
installing an accessory, position yourself and
bystanders away from the plane of the rotating
accessory and run the power tool at maximum
no‑load speed for one minute. Damaged
accessories will normally break apart during this
testtime.
h ) Wear personal protective equipment. Depending
on application, use face shield, safety goggles or
safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask,
hearing protectors, gloves and workshop apron
capable of stopping small abrasive or workpiece
fragments. The eye protection must be capable
of stopping flying debris generated by various
operations. The dust mask or respirator must
be capable of filtrating particles generated by
your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearingloss.
i ) Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work
area. Anyone entering the work area must wear
personal protective equipment. Fragments of
workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away and
cause injury beyond immediate area ofoperation.
j ) Position the cord clear of the spinning accessory.
If you lose control, the cord may be cut or snagged
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) Service
a ) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool ismaintained.

Additional Safety Instructions for Sanders
• Always wear eye protection and a respirator
whensanding.
• Sanding of lead‑based paint is not recommended.
See Precautions to Take When Sanding Paint for
additional information before sandingpaint.
• Do not operate the unit without a dust
collectionsystem.
• Clean your tool outperiodically.
accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have
a tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause
loss of control orkickback.
e ) Do not attach a toothed saw blade. Such blades
create frequent kickback and loss ofcontrol.
Kickback and Related Warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory.
Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating
accessory which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to
be forced in the direction opposite of the accessory’s rotation
at the point of thebinding.
For example, if a backing pad is snagged or pinched by the
workpiece, the edge of the pad that is entering into the pinch
point can dig into the surface of the material causing the
wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either jump
toward or away from the operator, depending on direction of
the wheel’s movement at the point ofpinching.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by
taking proper precautions as givenbelow.
a ) Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and
position your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces. Always use auxiliary handle, if
provided, for maximum control over kickback or
torque reaction during start‑up. The operator can
control torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper
precautions aretaken.
b ) Never place your hand near the rotating
accessory. Accessory may kickback over yourhand.
c ) Do not position your body in the area where
power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback
will propel the tool in direction opposite to the wheel’s
movement at the point ofsnagging.
d ) Use special care when working corners, sharp
edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
and your hand or arm may be pulled into the
spinningaccessory.
k ) Never lay the power tool down until the
accessory has come to a complete stop. The
spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull the
power tool out of yourcontrol.
l ) Do not run the power tool while carrying it at
your side. Accidental contact with the spinning
accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the
accessory into yourbody.
m ) Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The
motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and
excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause
electricalhazards.
n ) Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite thesematerials.
o ) Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may
result in electrocution orshock.
p ) Do not use excessively oversized sanding disc
paper. Follow manufacturer’s recommendations
when selecting sanding paper. Larger sanding
paper extending beyond the sanding pad presents a
laceration hazard and may cause snagging, tearing of
the disc orkickback.
Additional Safety Information
WARNING: Never modify the power tool or any part
of it. 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,
sawing, 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.

Brush‑Type Skirt (Fig. B)
A brush‑type skirt8 surrounds the abrasive pad on the
DWE7800. This skirt serves two purposes:
• It extends below the surface of the abrasive pad to
prevent the abrasive from “gouging” thework.
• It helps contain the drywall dust until the vacuum
cleaner pulls itaway.
If the skirt is damaged or if it is worn excessively it should be
replaced by a DeWALT authorized servicecenter.
Speed Control Dial (Fig. A)
The DWE7800 Sander is equipped with variable speed
control. Adjust the speed by turning the speed control
dial2. The speed control dial is numbered “1” through “7”.
The setting “1” is the slowest speed (approximately 700
RPM) and “7” is the fastest speed (approximately 1200RPM).
Use the higher speed settings for fast stock removal. Use
the lower speed setting to reduce removal rate for more
precisecontrol.
To Attach Sanding Disc to the Sanding
Pad (Fig. B)
1. Turn the sander over so that the sanding pad6 is
facingupward.
2. Clean the dust from the sanding padface.

from your local dealer or authorized DeWALT servicecenter.
ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start‑up can causeinjury.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in movingparts.
• 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 lower the gauge number, the heavier thecord.

Sanding Drywall (Fig. E)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury,
ALWAYS wear a respirator approved by NIOSH for
“Dust andMist”.
The drywall sander has an articulating sanding head. The
head can swivel in multiple directions, allowing the abrasive
pad to conform to the work surface. This action enables you
to sand the top, middle, and bottom of a wall or ceiling joint
without changingposition.
1. Turn the vacuum cleaner switch ON (I).
2. Turn drywall sander switchON.
3. Position the drywall sander lightly against the work
surface. Apply just enough pressure to align the sanding
head with the worksurface.
4. Apply additional pressure to engage the abrasive pad
on the work surface. Move the sander in an overlapping
pattern to smooth the drywall compound down to
a“featheredge”.
Slider Switch (Fig. C)
NOTE: To reduce unexpected tool movement, do not
switch the tool on or off while under load conditions. Allow
the sander to run up to full speed before touching the work
surface. Lift the tool from the surface before turning the tool
off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before putting itdown.
WARNING: Before connecting the tool to a power
supply, be sure the slider switch is in the off position
by pressing the rear part of the switch and releasing.
Ensure the slider switch is in the off position as
described above after any interruption in power
supply to the tool, such as deadbattery.
To start the tool, slide the ON/OFF slider switch1 toward
the front of the tool using the rear portion of the switch. To
stop the tool, release the ON/OFF sliderswitch.
For continuous operation, slide the switch toward the front
of the tool and press the forward part of the switch inward.
To stop the tool while operating in continuous mode, press
the rear part of the slider switch andrelease.
Proper hand position requires one hand on the main
handle3 and one hand on the main tube4.
Proper Hand Position (Fig. E)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, ALWAYS use proper hand position asshown.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, ALWAYS hold securely in anticipation of a
suddenreaction.
OPERATION
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start‑up can causeinjury.
Precautions to Take When Sanding Paint
Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due
to the difficulty of controlling the contaminated dust.
The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and
pregnantwomen.
Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains
lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend the
following precautions when sanding any paint:
1. PERSONAL SAFETY
‑No children or pregnant women should enter the
work area where the paint sanding is being done
until all clean up iscompleted.
‑A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all
persons entering the work area. The filter should be
replaced daily or whenever the wearer has difficulty
breathing. See your local hardware store for the
proper NIOSH‑approved dustmask.
‑NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done
in the work area to prevent ingesting contaminated
paint particles. Workers should wash and clean up
BEFORE eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of food,
drink, or smoking should not be left in the work area
where dust would settle onthem.
2. ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
‑Paint should be removed in such a manner as to
minimize the amount of dustgenerated.
‑Areas where paint removal is occurring should be
sealed with plastic sheeting of 4milsthickness.
‑Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce
tracking of paint dust outside the workarea.
3. CLEANING AND DISPOSAL
‑All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed
and thoroughly cleaned daily for the duration of
the sanding project. Vacuum filter bags should be
changedfrequently.
‑Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and
disposed of along with any dust chips or other
removal debris. They should be placed in sealed
refuse receptacles and disposed of through regular
trash pick‑up procedures. During clean up, children
and pregnant women should be kept away from the
immediate workarea.
‑All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by
children should be washed thoroughly before being
usedagain.
NOTE: The sleeve11 of the dust extraction port can
be removed if damaged and replaced by the user. The
sleeve is available as an optional accessory and can be
replaced using ascrewdriver.
5. Apply ONLY enough pressure to keep the abrasive pad flat
against the work.
6. Keep the sander in constant motion while the abrasive
pad is in contact with the work surface. Use a steady,
sweeping motion. Excessive pressure, stopping the
sander on the work, or moving the sander erratically can
cause unacceptable swirl marks and unevenness in the
worksurface.
NOTE: Do not allow rotating abrasive pad to contact sharp
protrusions. Contact with protruding objects (nails, screws,
electrical boxes, etc.), can severely damage the abrasivepad.
