SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Important Safety Instructions for All Tools

WARNING: For your own safety, read the instruction manual before operating the planer. Failure to heed these warnings may result in personal injury and serious damage to the planer. When servicing this tool, use only identical replacement parts. Have damaged cords replaced by an authorized service center.

DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two separate layers of electrical insulation or one double thickness of insulation between you and the tool’s electrical system. Tools built with this insulation system are not intended to be grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped with a two prong plug which permits you to use extension cords without concern for maintaining a ground connection.

NOTE: Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.

POLARIZED PLUGS
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

WARNING: When using electric tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:

General Safety Instructions

  • KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
  • REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning it on.
  • KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries.
  • DON’T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain. Keep work area well lighted. Always operate tool in a well-ventilated area free of combustible materials, gasoline or solvent vapors. If sparks come in contact with flammable vapors, they may ignite, causing fire or explosion.
  • KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept safe distance from work area.
  • MAKE WORKSHOP KID PROOF with padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.
  • DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
  • USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
  • USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in overheating and loss of power. 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. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W.” These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
  • WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.
  • ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses.
  • ACTUATING TOOL MAY RESULT IN FLYING DEBRIS, COLLATION MATERIAL, OR DUST WHICH COULD HARM OPERATOR’S EYES. The operator and all those persons in the general area should wear safety glasses with permanently attached side shields. Approved safety glasses are imprinted with the characters “Z87.1”. It is the employer’s responsibility to enforce the use of eye protection equipment by the tool operator and other people in the work area.
  • SECURE WORK. Use of clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. It’s safer than using your hands and it frees both hands to operate tool.
  • DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
  • MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
  • DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing; when changing accessories, such as blades, bits, cutters, and the like.
  • REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in off position before plugging in.
  • USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult the instruction manual for recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.
  • NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
  • CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function—check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
  • DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into planer according to direction of feed arrows on top of the unit.
  • NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.

Additional Specific Safety Rules for Planers

  • To reduce the risk of injury, user must read and understand instruction manual before operating planer.
  • Always wear eye protection and dust mask if necessary.
  • Keep hands away from the underside of the cutter head carriage.
  • Never clear clogs, make cutter knife replacement, or any other repairs/adjustments with unit plugged in.
  • Make certain that the switch is in the OFF position before connecting plug to a power source.
  • Be sure that the cutter knives are mounted as described in the instruction manual and check that all bolts are firmly tightened before connecting unit to power source.
  • To avoid injury, never rotate the cutter block directly with your hands.
  • Keep guards in place and in good working order.
  • Stay alert—never operate the unit when tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
  • Do not use in dangerous environments. Do not use near flammable substances, in damp or wet locations, or expose to rain.
  • Never plane material which is shorter than 12″ (304.8 mm).
  • Exhaust chute: remove shavings with brush or vacuum after power has been shut off and cutter head has stopped rotating.
  • ALWAYS LOCATE PLANER WITH PROPER CLEARANCE ON THE OUTFEED SIDE of the unit to prevent pinching or binding of the workpiece against any obstacle.
  • Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy use. Dust and grit containing metal particles often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create a risk of serious injury, electric shock or electrocution. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.

WARNING: For your own safety, it is recommended that two people carry this machine or serious injury could result.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss.

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.

  • Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities. 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.

WARNING: 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/OSHA approved dust mask.

  • The label on your tool may include the following symbols. The symbols and their definitions are as follows:

Planing depth ________ Maximum 1/8″ (3 mm) (for boards 6″ (152 mm) wide or less)

Electrical Connection

Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate marking. Volts, 50/60 Hz or “AC only” means your planer must be operated only with alternating current and never with direct current. Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and overheating. All D E WALT tools are factory tested, if this tool does not operate, check the power supply.

Transporting the Planer (Fig. 1)

WARNING: For your own safety, it is recommended that two people carry this machine or serious injury could result.

When moving your planer, carry it either by the side carrying handles (A) or by the handles at the base of the planer (B).

Bench Mounting

To facilitate bench mounting, two different sized holes (D) are provided on the four corners of your planer. If mounting the planer with bolts, use the larger holes. If mounting the planer with nails or screws, use the smaller holes. It is not necessary to use both sets of holes. Always mount your planer firmly to prevent movement. To enhance the tool’s portability, it can be mounted to a piece of 1/2″ (12.7 mm) or thicker plywood which can then be clamped to your work support or moved to other job sites and reclamped.

NOTE: If you elect to mount your planer onto a piece of plywood, make sure that the mounting screws don’t protrude from the bottom of the wood. The plywood must sit flush on the work support.

CAUTION: The mounting surface should not be warped or otherwise uneven.

ASSEMBLY

WARNING: Do not remove guards (E, Fig. 2). Serious injury could result.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

TO ATTACH THE DEPTH ADJUSTMENT CRANK HANDLE (FIG. 3)
  1. Remove the screw located in the crank handle shaft.
  2. Insert the crank handle (F) over the shaft.
  3. Secure in place with the screw and T-wrench (G) provided.

DUST EJECTION PORTS

Your planer comes with a dust ejection port. The round port (I) as shown below is for use with a 4″ (100 mm) dust collector hose.

TO SET UP DUST EJECTION
  1. Select the port (I).
  2. Depress the lock button (K) on the chip ejection chute (H).
  3. Slide the notches in the dust port over the pins on the chip ejection chute.
  4. Rotate the port until the button engages the dust ejection chute and locks in place.

WARNING: Do not operate your planer without the dust ejection port locked into place. Do not insert anything into the dust ejection chute unless the planer is unplugged and you are clearing a clog or obstruction in the unit. Do not get your face or eyes near the dust ejection port when the planer is in operation. Serious injury could result.

WARNING: Chips are ejected at significant velocity. Keep hands and face clear of dust ejection port.

TO REMOVE THE DUST EJECTION PORT
  1. Use the T-wrench to depress the lock button (K) on the dust chute.
  2. Twist the port until the pins are disengaged from the notches on the port.
  3. Pull the dust ejection port off of the dust chute.

OPERATION

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

On/Off Switch

To turn the planer on, lift the switch (L) up. The planer locks on automatically. To turn the tool off, press the switch down. A hole (M) is provided under the switch for insertion of a padlock to lock off the planer.

Depth Adjustment

DEPTH ADJUSTMENT SCALE

The depth adjustment scale (N), located on the right front of your planer, indicates the finished thickness of your workpiece. One rotation of the depth adjustment crank is equal to 1/16″ (1.6 mm), half rotation is equal to 1/32″ (0.8 mm), etc.

DEPTH ADJUSTMENT CRANK

Turning the crank clockwise lowers the cutter head. Turning the crank counterclockwise raises the cutter head.

Material Removal Gauge

Your planer is equipped with a material removal gauge (O). It is used to indicate the amount of wood that will be removed in one pass with the carriage set at its current height.

TO USE THE MATERIAL REMOVAL GAUGE
  1. Slide approximately 3″ (75 mm) of your ma terial under the middle of the carriage.
  2. Be sure the wood is lying flat against the base of the planer. If the material is inserted at an angle, the reading may be inaccurate.
  3. Crank the carriage down on the ma terial until the material removal bar engages the wood. You will see the red arrow begin to move up the scale indicating the amount of material to be removed with the carriage at that height.
  4. Adjust the carriage height until the desired depth of cut appears on the gauge.
  5. Pull the material out from under the carriage.
  6. Turn the unit on and feed your material into the cutter head.

NOTE: Do not exceed the recommended depth of cut for various widths of material recommended on the material removal gauge.

WARNING: DO NOT switch the unit on with the material positioned under the carriage. Serious injury could result.

Speed Selection

NOTE: Only switch speeds when the planer is running.

Your planer has the ability to feed material at two different speeds. The two-speed feature (P) was designed to improve efficiency when planing and to provide the best possible surface finish to a variety of materials.

To remove material thickness more quickly, set the unit at speed “2”. This setting delivers 96 cuts per inch to the material.

For finishing, set the unit to speed “1”. Speed “1” is ideal for ensuring the finest finish on the last pass before your final thickness is achieved.

NOTE: When planing particularly hard or figured species of wood, speed “1” is recommended. The slower feed rate will reduce knife wear and tear-out by delivering 179 cuts per inch to the material.

Fan-Assisted Chip Ejection System

Your planer is equipped with a fan-assisted chip ejection system to aid in exhausting chips from the unit. The fan-assisted chip ejection system will work in conjunction with independent dust collection systems.

NOTE: It is not recommended that a shop vac be connected to the DW735. The capacity of most vacs does not support the volume of chips ejected during planing. The vacuum hose may clog stopping the flow of chips.
See the Troubleshooting Guide, for additional information.

Automatic Carriage Lock

There is no manual carriage lock on your planer. A device that automatically minimizes the movement that causes snipe during planing is designed into the four threaded posts.

Turret Stop

Your planer is equipped with a turret stop (Q) for repetitive planing at pre-set depths. Stops are set at 1/8″ (3 mm), 1/4″ (6.5 mm), 1/2″ (12.7 mm), 3/4″ (19 mm), 1″ (25.5 mm), and 1-1/4″ (32 mm).

TO SET THE MINIMUM DEPTH TO WHICH THE CARRIAGE CAN TRAVEL WITH THE TURRET STOP

  1. Be sure the carriage is set above 1-1/4″ (32 mm) before trying to set the turret stop.
  2. Turn the dial on the front left of the planer until the desired thickness setting aligns with the red indicator, then lower the carriage.
  3. Plane the workpiece at desired increments until the correct final thickness is achieved.

NOTE: Do not use force to crank the carriage below the level that the turret stop indicates. Permanent damage to the height adjustment system on your planer will result.

PLANING BASICS

Proper Planing Technique

TO PLANE YOUR MATERIAL

  1. Lower the carriage to the desired height for your first pass.
  2. Turn the unit on and feed the material into the feed rollers.
  3. Examine the finished cut and adjust the carriage to the appropriate height for your next pass.

NOTE: Flip the board back and forth between each pass as recommended in Proper Planing Techniques.

See the Troubleshooting Guide, for additional information.

WARNING: DO NOT turn the unit on with the material already inserted under the carriage. Wait until the rollers and cutter head are up to full speed before feeding your material into the machine.

For best results, plane both sides of the workpiece to reach a desired thickness. For example, if you need to remove 1/8″ (3 mm) from your workpiece, remove 1/16″ (1.6 mm) from each side. This not only allows the workpiece to dry with an even moisture content, it also produces finer cuts.

WARNING: Plane only wood that is free from foreign objects, with no loose knots and as few tight knots as possible. Do not plane wood that is severely warped, twisted, knotted or bowed.

WARNING: Do not place your body between the rear of the planer and a stationary object while material is feeding. Serious injury could result.

MINIMUM/MAXIMUM WIDTH/HEIGHT/DEPTH

NOTE: Always plane in the direction of the grain. Support the workpiece adequately at all times. Planing material less than 3/4″ (19 mm) wide is not recommended. If you must plane narrow material, group several pieces together and plane them as one wide workpiece whenever possible.

The maximum depth of cut your planer can take in one pass is 1/8″ (3 mm) [on material less than 6″ (152 mm) wide]. Never attempt to modify your planer to take a deeper cut. Follow the recommended depth/width of cut guidelines shown in Table A for best results.

Snipe

Snipe is a depression made when an unsupported end of your material drops toward the floor, causing the opposite end to lift up into the cutter head.

TO AVOID SNIPE
Feed the workpiece into the planer so it is level and remains flat against the base at all times.
Keep the workpiece level throughout planing operation by receiving or “catching” it from the rear of the planer.
If you are planing material that is especially long, the use of additional material support is recommended.

Twisted, Cupped and Bowed Wood

If both sides of your material are very rough or if the material is cupped, bowed or twisted, your planer may not produce the
desired result. Ideally, you should have at least one level face/surface on your material before you plane. Your thickness planer will work best with material that has been run through a jointer to produce one flat surface. If you do not have at least one flat surface or a jointer, see the following recommendations.

TO PLANE TWISTED WOOD (FIG. 11)

WARNING: Twisted wood may jam your thickness planer. If a jam occurs, turn the power off, disconnect the power supply and raise the carriage to release the material from the cutter head.

If your material is only slightly twisted:
Plane both sides alternating from one to the other until the desired thickness is reached.

TO PLANE CUPPED WOOD (FIG. 12)

To obtain the best possible results with cupped wood:

Rip the material down the middle and plane it as two separate pieces. Ripping the material reduces the severity of the cup and allows the machine to deliver better results. Understand that you will have to remove more material on cupped wood to achieve the desired thickness than you would on a normal board.

If ripping the material is not an option:
Plane one side of the material until flat, then plane the opposite side until it is also flat.

NOTE: Do not flip the board back and forth between each pass as recommended by the general planing directions.

TO PLANE BOWED WOOD (FIG. 13)

The feed rollers and cutter head in your planer will push the bow out of the material as it feeds. However, when the material exits the planer, the pressure of the rollers and cutter head will release allowing the wood to spring back into a bowed formation. To properly remove the bow, use a jointer.

Changing the Planer Knives

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, disconnect the planer from the power source before attempting to change or access the knives. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

TO CHANGE PLANER KNIVES (FIG. 14–19)
  1. Use the T-wrench to remove the four screws in the top of the planer.
  2. Lift the top off (Fig. 14) and place it aside.
  3. Remove the three wing nuts that seal the dust shroud over the cutter head.
  4. Rotate the dust shroud up so the round connection that locks onto the fan housing is in the open position (Fig. 15).
  5. Push the dust shroud to the left so it disengages from the fan housing.
  6. Take the dust shroud out of the unit (Fig. 16) and set it aside.
  7. The cutter head is now exposed.
    If the eight screws in the cutter head clamp are not visible, use a piece of scrap wood to carefully rotate the cutter head (Fig. 17) until the screws are accessible and the cutter head lock lever (R) engages. This will prevent further rotation of the cutter head as you change the knives.  WARNING: Keep your fingers away from the cutter head at all times. Use the tool provided to handle the knives.
  8. Use the T-wrench to remove the eight screws on the knife clamp and set them in the small screws bin (S) on the front panel of the planer (Fig. 18).
  9. Use the magnets on the top of the T-wrench to attract the knife clamp and lift it off of the cutter head. One of the knives should now be exposed.
  10. Use the magnet (T) on the top of the T-wrench (Fig. 19) to attract the knife. Avoid touching it with your fingers.

If only one side of the knife is worn:

  1. Turn the knife around so that the sharp, unused edge hangs over the end of the cutter head where it will cut the material. Be sure to set the oblong holes in the knife over the pins machined on the cutter head.
  2. Reset the knife clamp over the knife. Be sure to align the beveled edge on the clamp with the sharp, cutting edge of the knife. If these are not aligned correctly, the clamp will not secure the knife properly.
  3. Install the screws into the clamp and tighten sufficiently.

To access the other two knives:

  1. Depress the cutter head lock lever (R) as shown in Figure 17.
  2. Use the piece of scrap wood to carefully turn the cutter head until it locks into place revealing another knife clamp.
  3. Follow the same knife change procedure indicated above.
  4. Repeat the procedure for the last dull knife.

After installing new knives:

  1. Insert the round end of the dust shroud into the fan housing and rotate it down to lock it into place.
  2. Place the three wing nuts back into the shroud.
  3. Screw the top cover of the planer back onto the unit.

NOTE: The planer will not operate if the top cover is not placed correctly.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

Brush Change (Fig. 20)

Your planer is equipped with brush caps (U) that are external to the motor. If your brushes need to be replaced, begin by acquiring a new set from a DEWALT service center or a dealer authorized to service DEWALT products. Use only identical DEWALT brushes.

TO REPLACE THE BRUSHES ON YOUR PLANER (FIG. 21)

  1. Use the T-wrench to remove the top cover and brush cover screen on the planer.
  2. Use a flathead screwdriver to unscrew the brush cap located in the right, rear of the unit (V).
  3. Do the same for the brush cap located on the side of the motor, inside the planer cover.
  4. Place the new brushes into the brush holders.
  5. After installing the brushes, replace the top cover and brush cover screen.
  6. Before using the planer, run the unit for 10 minutes to seat new brushes.

NOTE: If existing brushes do not need replacing, be sure to maintain the same orientation when you reinstall them.

Calibrating the Depth Adjustment Scale (Fig. 22)

The depth adjustment scale (N) on your planer is set at the factory. However, with extended use, the depth adjustment scale could show an incorrect measurement.

To check the depth adjustment scale, plane a piece of scrap wood, noting the measurement on the depth adjustment scale.

Measure the finished thickness of the workpiece. If the thickness of the workpiece does not match the reading on the depth adjustment scale, loosen the two screws (W) on the red indicator. Adjust the pointer up or down until its reading matches the finished thickness of the workpiece. Securely re-tighten the screws.

Base Maintenance

Keep the table clean and free from oil, grease, and pitch. Treat the table with paste wax to help maintain its smooth finish.

Circuit Breaker Reset Button (Fig. 23)

Your planer is equipped with an 18 amp circuit breaker. If your planer becomes overloaded and stops operating, turn off the planer, let the unit sit for 2 minutes and press the reset button (X) before you resume working.

WARNING: To prevent the planer from starting unexpectedly if power is interrupted by a circuit breaker trip, make sure the switch is in the OFF position before restoring power.

NOTE: Circuit breaker overload is often the result of dull knives. Change your knives on a regular basis to avoid tripping your breaker. Check your knives before re-setting the circuit breaker and continuing to plane.

See the Troubleshooting Guide for additional information on circuit breaker trips.

Replacing the Drive Belt

Drive belts are available at extra cost at D E WALT authorized service centers. Replacement of the drive belt should be performed by qualified service personnel.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

IF THE UNIT DOES NOT RUN, CHECK TO SEE:
• if the unit is plugged in.
• if the dust shroud is properly in place.
• if the top cover is properly in place.
• if the circuit breaker needs to be reset.

IF THE MATERIAL DOES NOT FEED PROPERLY, CHECK FOR:
• dull knives.
• excess clogging in the dust shroud.
• excess oil/debris from feed rollers.
• excessively twisted, cupped or bowed material.
• a broken drive belt.

IF CHIPS DO NOT EJECT FROM THE REAR OF THE UNIT, CHECK TO SEE:
• if the dust shroud is properly in place.
• if the dust shroud and fan are clogged or obstructed.

IF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER TRIPS:
• check for dull knives. Dull knives could cause motor overloading.
• reduce depth of cut. An overly aggressive cut could cause motor overloading.
• drop feed rate to 14 ft/min. A reduction in feed rate will reduce the load on the motor and prevent breaker trips.

IF THE BRANCH (HOUSE/SHOP) CIRCUIT BREAKER TRIPS REPEATEDLY:
• unplug or turn off other devices sharing the circuit with the planer OR use the planer on another branch circuit by itself.
• check for dull knives. Dull knives could cause motor overloading.
• reduce depth of cut. An overly aggressive cut could cause motor overloading.
• drop feed rate to 14 ft/min. A reduction in feed rate will reduce the load on the motor and prevent breaker trips.

NOTE: Even under normal loading conditions, other electrical loads on the same branch circuit may cause the circuit breaker to trip.

FAQ’S

How can I tell if my planer is a DW735 or a DW733?

The DW735 has a 3/4″ wide by 2-1/4″ long logo on the front of the planer. The DW733 does not have this logo.

Is the DW735 compatible with the DW733 outfeed table?

No, the DW735 outfeed table is not compatible with the DW733.

What is the maximum depth of cut for this planer?

The maximum depth of cut for this planer is 1/8″.

What is the maximum width of material that can be planed?

The maximum width of material that can be planed with this tool is 13″.

What is the capacity of this thickness planer?

This thickness planer has a capacity of up to 20″ wide by 1-3/8″ thick. It will plane up to a 3/4″ thick board if you use it with an outfeed support stand.

Can I use an outfeed support stand with this tool?

Yes, you can use an outfeed support stand with this tool. However, it will only plane boards up to 3/4″ thick. If you want to plane boards thicker than 3/4″, you will need to purchase an additional infeed and outfeed support stand (DWA1255). These stands are sold separately from the tool and are not included in the box. You can also purchase them from your local hardware store or online retailer. To order these stands, go to www.dewalt.com/planers-jointer-support-stands and enter your zip code into the “Find a Store” field at the bottom right corner of the page. Then click “Find Stores.” If your local hardware store or online retailer does not carry them, they can be ordered directly from us at 1-800-433-9258 (Monday – Friday 8 a.m.-5 p.m., EST). Please have your planer’s model number available when ordering these stands so we can ensure that you receive the correct stands for your tool.

Does the Dewalt DW735 come with blades?

Your DeWALT DW735 comes with them already installed and then when it’s time to replace them… surprise! You have one more use because they’re reversible. But when it’s time to replace them, you can pick up a double pack (6 blades) of the DeWALT 13″ Planer knives for under $80.

Can you run painted wood through a planer?

It is okay to plane most types of painted wood but the blades may dull faster. For safety and environmental reasons, planing painted wood with lead based or cementitious (waterproofing) paint is NOT RECOMMENDED.

Can you sand out planer snipe?

If it’s really small and light, you might get away with a little sanding on the ends, or you can run it through the planer again at a smaller thickness.

Does a planer have to be level?

If the surface isn’t flat you’ll end up getting snipe when your board runs off that bump. The cutter head will be removing material relative to the bed, so any defects in the bed will certainly translate into how the cutter meets the board.

Does a planer make wood smooth?

If neither face is true, a jointer/planer can be used to smooth one face, then the other side can be planed parallel to the first on the thickness planer.) The freestanding planer is a near relation of the jointer/planer. It, too, cuts with a cutter head, but the planer smooths the face of much wider stock.

How do you prevent tears from a planer?

To best prevent this, you need two things. First, use a plane with an adjustable mouth, so you can close it down close to the blade [Photo below] to limit the thickness of the shavings you’ll make. Second, you want a steeper cutting angle of 50–55°.

Operational Cautions

Exposure to high volume sound levels may cause temporary or permanent damage to your hearing. Although there is no single volume setting that is appropriate for everyone, you should always use your radio with the volume set at low level and avoid prolonged exposure to high volume sound levels.

  1.  Set the volume control in a low position and use as low a volume as possible.
  2.  Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings. Whenever possible, use your radio in a quiet environment with low background noise.
  3. Limit the amount of time you use headsets or earpiece at high volume levels.
  4.  When using the radio without a headset or earpiece, do not place the radio’s speaker directly against your ear.
  5.  Observe all signs and instructions that require an electrical device or RF radio product to be switched off in designated areas, such as gas/refueling stations, hospitals, blasting areas, potentially explosive atmospheres, or aircraft.
  6.  If you experience a skin irritation after using this product, discontinue use and seek medical attention.
  7.  If the product or charger: overheats; has a damaged cord or plug; has been dropped or damaged; has been dropped into water, disconnect any charger from its power supply, discontinue use of the product.
Electromagnetic Interference

Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility. Turn off your radio in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. These facilities may include hospitals or health care facilities that may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

  •  When instructed to do so, turn off your radios when on board an aircraft. Any use of a RF device must be in accordance with applicable laws, regulations and airline crew instructions.
  •  Some radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer or physician to discuss alternatives.
  • If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your doctor or physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

DCST922 - DANGER  WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry the battery pack so that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place the battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc. Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes in carry-on baggage UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual battery packs, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

NOTE: Li-ion batteries should not be put in checked baggage.

The RBRC® Seal

The RBRC® (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithiumion batteries (or battery packs) indicates that the costs to recycle these batteries (or battery packs) at the end of their useful life have already been paid by DEWALT. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the Call 2 Recycle® program provides an environmentally conscious alternative.
Call 2 Recycle, Inc., in cooperation with DEWALT and other battery users, has established the program in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning the spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries to an authorized DEWALT service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery. RBRC® is a registered trademark of Call 2 Recycle, Inc.

Shipping the DEWALT FLEXVOLT™ Battery

The DEWALT FLEXVOLT™ battery has two modes: Use and Shipping.

Use Mode: When the FLEXVOLT™ battery stands alone or is in a DEWALT 20V Max* product, it will operate as a 20V Max* battery. When the FLEXVOLT™ battery is in a 60V Max* or a 120V Max* (two 60V Max* batteries) product, it will operate as a 60V Max* battery.

Shipping Mode: When the cap is attached to the FLEXVOLT™ battery, the battery is in Shipping Mode. Strings of cells are electrically disconnected within the pack resulting in three batteries with a lower Watt hour (Wh) rating as compared to one battery with a higher Watt hour rating. This increased quantity of three batteries with the lower Watt hour rating can exempt the pack from certain shipping regulations that are imposed upon the higher Watt hour batteries.
The battery label indicates two Watt hour ratings (see example). Depending on how the battery is shipped, the appropriate Watt hour rating must be used to determine the applicable shipping requirements. If utilizing the shipping cap, the pack will be considered 3 batteries at the Watt hour rating indicated for “Shipping”. If shipping without the cap or in a tool, the pack will be considered one battery at the Watt hour rating indicated next to “Use”.

  • Example of Use and Shipping Label Marking
  • USE: 120 Wh Shipping: 3 x 40 Wh

For example, Shipping Wh rating might indicate 3 x 40 Wh, meaning 3 batteries of 40 Watt hours each. The Use Wh rating might indicate 120 Wh (1 battery implied).

Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers

DCST922 - DANGER  WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, and cautionary markings for the battery pack, charger and product. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

  • DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than a DEWALT charger. DEWALT chargers and battery packs 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 the charger to rain or snow.
  • Pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger. This will reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord.
  • Make sure that the 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 charger outdoors, always provide a dry location and 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 lower the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Minimum Gauge for Cord Sets

DCB107, DCB112, DCB113, DCB115, DCB118, DCB132: 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. A charger will not charge a faulty battery pack. The charger refusing to light could indicate a problem with the charger or a faulty battery pack.

NOTE: If the charger refuses to light, take the charger and battery pack to be tested at an authorized service center.

Leaving the Battery Pack In the Charger
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the charge indicator showing pack charged.

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 may charge at a slower rate than a warm battery pack.
The DCB118 charger is equipped with an internal fan designed to cool the battery pack. The fan will turn on automatically when the battery pack needs to be cooled.
Never operate the charger if the fan does not operate properly or if ventilation slots are blocked. Do not permit foreign objects to enter the interior of the charger.

Electronic Protection System

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 lithiumion 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 65 °F – 75 °F (18 °C–24 °C). DO NOT charge when the battery pack is below +40 °F (+4.5 °C), or above +104 °F (+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:
    a.  Check operation of 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 the charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is approximately 65 °F–75 °F (18 °C–24 °C);
    d.  If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local service center.
  4. 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 effect on the battery pack.
  5. 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.
  6. Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any other liquid.

DCST922 - Fig. I

Bump Feed Trimmer Line Feed

Your trimmer uses 0.080″ (2.0 mm) diameter nylon line. Cutting line will wear faster and require more feeding if the cutting is done along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are being cut.
As you use the trimmer, the string will get shorter due to wear. Gently bump the trimmer on the ground while running at normal speed and the line will feed.

NOTE: Extending nylon line beyond the 14″ (355 mm) swath will negatively affect performance, runtime, and the life of the trimmer due to potential of damaging motor. Doing so may void the warranty.

Helpful Cutting Tips

  • Use the tip of the string to do the cutting; do not force string head into uncut grass.
  • Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear, even breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may wear string rapidly.
  • Do not allow spool cap to drag on ground or other surfaces.
  • In long growth, cut from the top down and do not exceed 12″ (304.8 mm) high.
  • Keep trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is the best cutting area.
  • The trimmer cuts when passing the unit from the left to right. This will avoid throwing debris at the operator.
  • Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings, siding, and fence posts can easily be damaged by the string.

MAINTENANCE

DCST922 - DANGER  WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

OPERATING TIPS

  • Use only new, high-quality, name brand batteries for best results.
  • Ensure batteries are in good working condition. If the low battery red indicator light is flashing, the batteries need replacement.
  • To extend battery life, turn laser off when not working with or marking the beam.
  • To ensure the accuracy of your work, check to make sure your laser is calibrated often. See Field Calibration Check.
  • Before attempting to use the laser, make sure it is positioned securely, on a smooth, flat surface.
  • Always mark the center of the beam created by the laser.
  • Extreme temperature changes may cause movement of internal parts that can affect accuracy. Check your accuracy often while working. See Field Calibration Check.
  • If the laser has been dropped, check to make sure your laser is still calibrated. See Field Calibration Check.

LOW BATTERY INDICATION

The DW088 lasers are equipped with a red indicator light 2, as shown in Fig. B. The red indicator lights are located to the left of the on/off buttons (3, 4).

A flashing red indicator light indicates that the batteries are low and need to be replaced. The laser may continue to operate for a short time while the batteries continue to drain, but the beam(s) will quickly dim. After fresh batteries are installed and the laser is turned on again, the laser beam(s) will return to full brightness and the red indicator light will stay off. (A flashing laser beam is not caused by low batteries; see Out of Tilt Range Indicator.)

OPERATION

TO TURN THE LASERS ON AND OFF (FIg. B)

With the laser off, place it on a flat surface. This model has two ON/OFF buttons, one for a horizontal laser line 3 and one for a vertical laser line 4. Each laser line is powered on by pressing its ON/OFF button. The laser lines can be powered one at a time or at the same time. Pressing the ON/OFF buttons again turns the laser lines off.

USING THE LASERS

The beams are level or plumb as long as the calibration has been checked (see Field Calibration Check) and the laser beam is not flashing (see Out of Tilt Range Indicator).

Out of Tilt Range Indicator (Fig. C, D)

The lasers are designed to self-level. If the laser has been tilted so much that it cannot level itself (average > 4° tilt), it will flash the laser beam (Fig. D). The flashing beam indicates the tilt range has been exceeded and IS NOT LEVEL (OR PLUMB) AND SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR DETERMINING OR MARKING LEVEL (OR PLUMB). Try repositioning the laser on a more level surface.

Using the Lasers with Accessories

The lasers are equipped with a 1/4” x 20 female thread on the bottom of the unit. This thread is to accommodate current or future DeWALT accessories. Only use DeWALT accessories specified for use with this product. Follow the directions included with the accessory.

 Caution! The use of any other accessory not recommended for use with this tool could be hazardous.

If you need any assistance in locating any accessory, please contact DeWALT Industrial Tool Co., 701 East Joppa Road, Towson, MD 21286 or call 1–800–4-DeWALT (1–800–433–9258). See our catalog on the World Wide Web at www.DeWALT.com.

Using the Pivot Bracket (Fig. E)

The lasers have a magnetic pivot bracket 5 permanently attached to the units. This bracket allows the unit to be mounted to any upright surface made of steel or iron. Common examples of suitable surfaces include steel framing studs, steel door frames and structural steel beams. The bracket also has a keyhole slot 6 allowing the unit to be hung from a nail or screw on any kind of surface. Position the laser and/or wall mount on a stable surface. Serious personal injury or damage to the laser may result if the laser falls.

Using the Laser with the Wall Mount (Fig. E)

The DW0860 Laser Wall Mount offers more mounting options for the DW088 lasers. The wall mount has a clamp 7 at one end which can be fixed to a wall angle for acoustic ceiling installation. At the other end of the wall mount is a screw hole 8, allowing the wall mount to be attached to any surface with a nail or screw.

Once the wall mount is secured, its steel plate provides a surface to which the magnetic pivot bracket can be attached. The position of the laser can then be fine-tuned by sliding the pivot bracket up or down on the wall mount.

Leveling the Lasers

s long as the lasers are properly calibrated, the lasers are selfleveling. Each laser is calibrated at the factory to find level as long as it is positioned on a flat surface within average ± 4° of level. No manual adjustments must be made.

MAINTENANCE

  • To maintain the accuracy of your work, check the laser often to make sure it is properly calibrated. See Field Calibration Check.
  • Calibration checks and other maintenance repairs may be performed by DeWALT service centers.
  • When not in use, store the laser in the kit box provided. Do not store your laser at temperatures below -5 ºF (-20 ºC) or above 140 ºF (60 ºC).
  • Do not store your laser in the kit box if the laser is wet. The laser should be dried first with a soft dry cloth.

CLEANING

Exterior plastic parts may be cleaned with a damp cloth. Although these parts are solvent resistant, NEVER use solvents. Use a soft, dry cloth to remove moisture from the tool before storage.

FIELD CALIBRATION CHECK

Checking Accuracy – Horizontal Beam, Scan Direction (Fig. F)

Checking the horizontal scan calibration of the laser requires two walls 30’ (9 m) apart. It is important to conduct a calibration check using a distance no shorter than the distance of the applications for which the tool will be used.

  1. Attach the laser to a wall using its pivot bracket. Make sure the laser is facing straight ahead.
  2. Turn on the laser’s horizontal beam and pivot the laser approximately 45º so that the right-most end of the laser line is striking the opposing wall at a distance of at least 30’ (9 m). Mark the center of the beamo (a).
  3.  Pivot the laser approximately 90º to bring the left-most end of the laser line around to the mark made in Step 2. Mark the center of the beam (b).
  4. Measure the vertical distance between the marks.
  5. If the measurement is greater than the values shown below, the laser must be serviced at an authorized service center.
Distance Between Walls Allowable Distance Between Marks
30’ (9 m) 1/8” (3.0 mm)
40’ (12 m) 5/32” (4.0 mm)
50’ (15 m) 7/32” (5.0 mm)

Checking Accuracy – Horizontal Beam, Pitch Direction (Fig. G)

Checking the horizontal pitch calibration of the laser requires a single wall at least 30’ (9 m) long. It is important to conduct a calibration check using a distance no shorter than the distance of the applications for which the tool will be used.

  1. Attach the laser to one end of a wall using its pivot bracket.
  2. Turn on the laser’s horizontal beam and pivot the laser toward the opposite end of the wall and approximately parallel to the adjacent wall.
  3. Mark the center of the beam at two locations (c, d), at least 30’ (9 m) apart.
  4. Reposition the laser to the opposite end of the wall.
  5. Turn on the laser’s horizontal beam and pivot the laser back toward the first end of the wall and approximately parallel to the adjacent wall.
  6. Adjust the height of the laser so that the center of the beam is aligned with the nearest mark (d).
  7. Mark the center of the beam (e) directly above or below the farthest mark (c).
  8. Measure the distance between these two marks (c, e).
  9. If the measurement is greater than the values shown below, the laser must be serviced at an authorized service center.
Distance Between Walls Allowable Distance Between Markss
30’ (9 m) 1/4” (6.0 mm)
40’ (12 m) 5/16” (8.0 mm)
50’ (15 m) 13/32” (10.0 mm)

Checking Accuracy – Vertical Beam (Fig. H)

Checking the vertical (plumb) calibration of the laser can be most accurately done when there is a substantial amount of vertical height available, ideally 30’ (9 m), with one person on the floor positioning the laser and another person near a ceiling to mark the position of the beam. It is important to conduct a calibration check using a distance no shorter than the distance of the applications for which the tool will be used.

  1. Start by marking a 5’ (1.5 m) line on the floor.
  2. Turn on the laser’s vertical beam and position the unit at one end of the line, facing the line.
  3. Adjust the unit so its beam is aligned and centered on the line on the floor.
  4. Mark the position of the laser beam on the ceiling (f). Mark the center of the laser beam directly over the midpoint of the line on the floor.
  5. Reposition the laser at the other end of the line on the floor. Adjust the unit once again so its beam is aligned and centered on the line on the floor.
  6. Mark the position of the laser beam on the ceiling (g), directly beside the first mark (f).
  7. Measure the distance between these two marks.
  8. 8. If the measurement is greater than the values shown below, the laser must be serviced at an authorized service center.

Ceiling Allowable Distance Between Marks Height
8’ (2.5 m) 5/32 (3,5 mm)
10’ (3.0 m) 3/16 (4,5 mm)
14’ (4.0 m) 1/4 (6,0 mm)
20’ (6.0 m) 3/8 (9,0 mm)
30’ (9.0 m) 1/2 (13 mm)

TROUBLESHOOTING

The Laser Does Not Turn On

  • Make sure batteries are installed according to (+) and (–) on the inside of the battery door.
  • Make sure the batteries are in proper working condition. If in doubt, try installing new batteries.
  • Make sure that the battery contacts are clean and free of rust or corrosion. Be sure to keep the laser level dry and use only new, high-quality, name brand batteries to reduce the chance of battery leakage.
  • If the laser unit is heated above 120 ºF (50 ºC), the unit will not turn on. If the laser has been stored in extremely hot temperatures, allow it to cool. The laser level will not be damaged by pressing the on/off button before cooling to its proper operating temperature.

The Laser Beams Flash (Fig. C, D)

The DW088 lasers have been designed to self-level up to an average of 4° in all directions when positioned as shown in Fig. C. If the laser is tilted so much that internal mechanism cannot level itself, it will flash the laser (Fig. D) – the tilt range has been exceeded. THE FLASHING BEAMS CREATED BY THE LASER ARE NOT LEVEL OR PLUMB AND SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR DETERMINING OR MARKING LEVEL OR PLUMB. Try repositioning the laser on a more level surface.

The Laser Beams Will Not Stop Moving

The DW088 lasers are precision instruments. Therefore, if the laser is not positioned on a stable (and motionless) surface, the laser will continue to try to find level. If the beam will not stop moving, try placing the laser on a more stable surface. Also, try to make sure that the surface is relatively flat, so that the laser is stable.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WarningWARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mainsoperated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

  1.  Work Area Safety
    a ) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
    b ) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
    c ) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
  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 residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD 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 energising 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 jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery 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.
    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.  Battery Tool Use and Care
    a ) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
    b ) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
    c ) 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.
    d ) 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.
    e ) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
    f ) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
    g ) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
  6. 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. b ) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers..

Additional Specific Safety Rules for Impact Wrenches/Drivers
· Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
Residual Risks
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks cannot be avoided. These are Impairments to hearing.

  • Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
  • Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot during operation.

When transporting batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
DEWALT batteries comply with all applicable shipping regulations as prescribed by industry and legal standards which include UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods; International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations, International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Regulations, and the European Agreement Concerning The International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR). Lithium-ion cells and batteries have been tested to section 38.3 of the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods Manual of Tests and Criteria.
In most instances, shipping a DEWALT battery pack will be excepted from being classified as a fully regulated Class 9 Hazardous Material. In general, only shipments containing a lithium-ion battery with an energy rating greater than 100 Watt Hours (Wh) will require being shipped as fully regulated Class 9. All lithium-ion batteries have the Watt Hour rating marked on the pack. Furthermore, due to regulation complexities, DEWALT does not recommend air shipping lithium-ion battery packs alone regardless of Watt Hour rating. 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 FlEXVOlTTM Battery
The DEWALT FLEXVOLTTM battery has two modes: Use and Transport.
Use Mode
: When the FLEXVOLTTM battery stands alone or is in a DEWALT 18V product, it will operate as an 18V battery. When the FLEXVOLTTM 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 FLEXVOLTTM 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.
For example, the Transport Example of Use and Transport Label Marking Wh rating might indicate 3 x 36 Wh, meaning 3 batteries of 36 Wh each. The Use Wh rating might indicate 108 Wh (1 battery implied).

  1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dries away from direct sunlight and excess heat or cold. For optimum battery performance and life, store battery packs in the room the 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.

How This Inverter Works

This inverter is an electronic device that converts low voltage DC (direct current) electricity from a battery to 120 volts AC (alternating current) household power. It converts power in two stages. The first stage is
a DC-to-DC conversion process that raises the low voltage DC at the inverter input to 145 volts DC. The second stage is a MOSFET bridge stage that converts the high voltage DC into 120 volts, 60 Hz AC.

Power Inverter Output Waveform

The AC output waveform of this inverter is known as a modified sine wave. It is a stepped waveform that has characteristics similar to the sine wave shape of utility power. This type of waveform is suitable for
most AC loads, including linear and switching power supplies used in electronic equipment, transformers, and small motors.

Rated Versus Actual Current Draw of Equipment

Most electrical tools, appliances, electronic devices and audio/visual equipment have labels that indicate the power consumption in amps or watts. Be sure that the power consumption of the item to be operated
is below 1000 watts. If the power consumption is rated in amps AC, simply multiply by the AC volts (120) to determine the wattage.
Resistive loads are the easiest for the inverter to run; however, it will not run larger resistive loads (such as electric stoves and heaters), which require far more wattage than the inverter can deliver. Inductive
loads (such as TVs and stereos) require more current to operate than do resistive loads of the same wattage rating.

Power Source Requirements

Your inverter will operate from input voltages between 11 and 15 volts DC. If the input voltage drops below 10 volts DC, the inverter will shut down. This feature protects the battery from being completely discharged.
The inverter will also shut down if the input voltage exceeds 15.6 volts. This protects the inverter against excessive input voltage. Although the inverter has built-in protection against over voltage, it may still be damaged if the input voltage exceeds 15 volts.
Your inverter is engineered to have standard electrical and electronic equipment directly connected to it in the manner described in the “Installation” section of this Instruction Manual. Do not connect the inverter to household or RV AC distribution wiring. Do not connect the inverter to any AC load circuit in which the neutral conductor is connected to ground (earth) or to the negative of the DC (battery) power source.
Inductive loads, such as TVs and stereos, require more current to operate than resistive loads of the same wattage rating. Induction motors, as well as some TVs, may require two to six times their rated wattage to start up. Because these inverters have a peak watt power rating, many such appliances and tools may be safely operated. The equipment that needs the highest starting wattage are pumps and compressors that start under load. This equipment can be safely tested. If an overload is detected, the inverter will simply shut down until the overload situation is corrected. Use the power button to turn off the inverter, then on again to reset it.

  • Exceeding recommended voltage limits will void manufacturer’s warranty.
  • The Power Inverter must be connected only to batteries with a nominal output voltage of 12 volts. The unit will not operate from a 6 volt battery and will sustain permanent damage if connected to a 24 volt battery.
  • Reverse polarity connection will result in a blown fuse and may cause permanent damage to the inverter.

Protective Features

The inverter monitors the following conditions:
Input Voltage Too Low: This condition is not harmful to the inverter, but could damage the power source, so the inverter will automatically shut down when input voltage drops below 10.5 ± 0.5 volts DC.

Input Voltage Too High:

The inverter will automatically shut down when DC input voltage exceeds 16 ± 0.5 volts, as this can harm the unit.

Thermal Shutdown Protection:

The inverter will automatically shut down when the unit becomes overheated.

Overload/Short Circuit Protection:

The inverter will automatically shut down when an overload or short circuit occurs.
Refer to “Power and Fault Indicators on the LCD Display” for an explanation of the icons that indicate a fault condition before shutdown.
To restart the unit, simply unplug all devices plugged into the inverter; disconnect the inverter from any 12 volt DC power source; then reconnect the inverter BEFORE plugging the appliance(s) back in.

Why is my Dewalt 1000 watt power inverter beeping?

The inverter is operating on battery power
The beeping or alarm basically points towards the fact that the unit is transferred from on line operation to battery operation.

How do I turn off my inverter when not in use?

To turn off the inverter first, choose the bypass option using the bypass switch located on the back of the inverter. Then, on the front side of the inverter, you will find the on/off button, press and hold that button until the inverter is switched off.

Should the inverter be on while charging?

Yes, It’s perfectly safe to keep your Inverter connected whilst charging your battery. Long Answer: In actual fact, your Inverter is going to love you for it (Less Amps,Less Heat), as well as your battery (Less duty cycle, Less Amps drawn), But your charger is going to hate you.

How do I know if my inverter is charging?

The inverter display will have an led switched ON when the battery is being charged. in some inverters the led keeps blinking when the battery is being charged. This is one indicator, but you have to trust the inverter in this case.

How do I know if my inverter is working?

Connect the inverter to your battery and plug it in a controlled and limited power like a low voltage lamp. Now, use a voltmeter to get the reading of the inverter output and see if it works fine. If everything is okay, the machine should work perfectly, and the lamp should light up as well.

What does green light mean on inverter?

Explanation. The green LED is flashing (two seconds on and two seconds off) Waiting for feed-in conditions The conditions for feed-in operation are not yet met. As soon as the conditions are met, the inverter will start feed-in operation. The green LED flashes quickly.

How do I reset my Dewalt 1000w power inverter?

Use the power button to turn off the inverter, then on again to reset it.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS 
Warning WARNING : Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains‑operated (corded) power tool or battery‑operated (cordless) power tool.

  1. Work Area Safety
    a ) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
    b ) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
    c ) Keep children and bystanders away while  operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
  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 ormoving 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 GFCIreduces the risk of electric  hock.
  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.
    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.  Battery Tool Use and Care
    a ) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
    b ) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
    c ) When 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.
    d ) 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.
    e ) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
    f ) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 265 °F (130 °C) may cause explosion.
    g ) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
  6.  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.
    b ) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
    Impact Wrench Safety Warnings – All Operations
    • Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
    • Wear ear protectors during use. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
    Warning WARNING: Impact wrenches are not torque wrenches. DO NOT use this tool for tightening fasteners to specified torques. An independent, calibrated torque  easurement device such as a  torque wrench should be used when under tightenedor over tightened fasteners can lead to the failure of the joint.
    • Wear safety goggles or other eye protection. Hammering and drilling operations cause chips to fly. Flying particles can cause permanent eye damage.
    • Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by tool action may be harmful to your hands and arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion and limit exposure by taking frequent rest periods.
    • Accessories and tools get hot during operation. Wear gloves when touching them.

Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers

WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, and cautionary markings for the battery pack, charger and product. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

  • DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than a DeWALT charger. DeWALT chargers and battery packs are specifically designed to work together.
  • These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging DeWALT rechargeable battery packs. Charging other types of battery packs may cause them to overheat and burst, resulting in personal injury, property damage, fire, electric shock or electrocution.
  • Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
  • Do not allow water or any liquid to enter charger.
  • Pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger. This will reduce the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord.
  • Make sure that the 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 charger outdoors, always provide a dry location and 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 heavier the cord and thus the greater its capacity. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on total length of all extension cords plugged together, and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.

WARNINGWARNING: Operating Precautions
This is a kerosene, direct-fired, forced air heater. It’s intended use is primarily temporary heating of buildings under construction, alteration or repair. Direct-Fired means that all of the combustion products enter the heated space. Even though this heater operates very close to 100 percent combustion efficiency, it still produces small amounts of carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide (called CO) is toxic. CO can build up in a heated space and failure to provide adequate ventilation could result in death. The symptoms of inadequate ventilation are:

  • headache
  •  dizziness
  • burning eyes and nose
  •  nausea
  • dry mouth or sore throat

Be sure to follow advice about ventilation in the Safety Precautions section.  Forced Air means that a blower or fan pushes the air through the heater. Proper combustion depends upon this airflow; therefore, the heater must not be revised, modified, or operated with parts removed or missing. Likewise, safety systems must not be circumvented or modified in order to operate the heater. When the heater is to be operated in the presence of other people the user is responsible for properly acquainting those present with the safety precautions instructions, and of hazards involved.

Maintenance and Storage

WARNINGWARNING: To prevent personal injury, unplug the heater from the wall outlet before servicing. For maximum efficiency and trouble-free service, make the following periodic maintenance, cleaning, and inspections.
ADJUSTING PUMP PRESSURE
Due to varying fuel viscosities and normal component wear the pump pressure on this heater may need to be adjusted.

ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

  1. Fill fuel tank.
  2. Start heater.
  3. Locate the pressure adjustment screw, located on the back of the power pack assembly and accessible by the handle of the heater.
  4.  Remove the rubber cap over the fuel pressure adjustment screw.
  5. Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, turn the pump pressure adjustment screw:
    • clockwise DEWALT Kerosene Forced-air Heater - clockwise to increase pump pressure
    •  counter-clockwise  DEWALT Kerosene Forced-air Heater - clockwise 2 decrease pump pressure By using the installed pressure gauge (if equipped) you may quantitatively calibrate the pressure. The manufacturer’s recommended pump pressures are in the specifications chart on page 3.
  6. The desired qualitative burner characteristics are that the nose cone in the combustion chamber should be cherry red with no dark spots and the flame should not extend beyond the nose cone.

IMPROPER PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
Problem:

The heater does not have a strong consistent flame. Heater smokes and spits raw fuel.
The nose cone does not get cherry red.
Adjustment:
Pump pressure is too low. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to increase pump pressure
Problem:
Flame extends beyond the end of the heater.
Adjustment:
Pump pressure is too high. Turn adjustment screw counterclockwise to decrease pump pressure.

Daily Maintenance Schedule

  1. GENERAL. Make a general visual inspection of the heater for loose or damaged parts. Check nuts and bolts to ensure against looseness caused by vibration or rough handling. Damaged parts should be repaired or replaced before using the heater again. Check heater operation to be sure it is operating normally (See “Servicing” section for a description of normal operation).
    2. FILTERS. Dirty air or fuel filters will cause an imbalance in the air-fuel mixture. The best indication that this condition exists is an increase in odors or difficulty getting your heater to ignite. This heater should never be operated without the filters in place. If required, clean filters as described under “500 Hours” and “Annual
    Schedules”.

500 Hour Maintenance Schedule

  1. AIR INTAKE FILTER. Remove and wash the filter element with a mild detergent, dry thoroughly and replace. Do not oil the filter element. If your heater is used where there is considerable dust or dirt, clean as often as necessary(approximately every 50 hrs.).
  2. REMOVE DUST. Clean heater twice a season (more often under dusty conditions). Remove accumulated dust from the transformer, burner, motor, and fan blades with compressed air. Wipe area clean with a clean dry cloth. Inspect the area to insure all foreign materials are removed, especially around the burner and combustion area. Safety glasses should be worn when using compressed air.
  3. CAD CELL. Clean the glass portion of the cad cell with a soft dry cloth.
  4. NOZZLE. Accumulation of dirt from fuel and carbon from the compressor vanes will eventually fill up the passages in the nozzle, resulting in a reduction of fuel and airflow. Pressure will gradually increase giving improper fuel-air mixture and excess odor and smoke. If this occurs, replace the fuel nozzle.
  5. FUEL TANK. Clean twice a season (during frequently used periods, clean twice a month). Drain and flush the fuel tank with clean fuel oil. Make sure to dispose of waste fuel properly.

Annual Maintenance Schedule

  1. AIR OUTPUT FILTER. Remove the air output filter and tap the contaminated side gently on a solid object to remove contaminates. Compressed air or liquids should not be used to clean this filter. Reinstall cleaned filter in filter body in the same position as it was when removed. If the filter appears extremely dirty, replace it with a new filter of the same type. When replacing the filter cover, be sure the gasket is firmly in place and the screws in the filter cover are tight to prevent air leaks.
  2. FUEL FILTER. Remove the fuel filter from fuel line and direct compressed air through the filter in the opposite direction of fuel flow. Safety glasses should be worn when using compressed air.
  3. AIR AND FUEL LINES. If the air or fuel lines are removed during cleaning, be sure all connections are tight before operating the unit.

Storage

Store the heater in a dry location free from fumes or dust. At the end of each heating season, clean the heater as described in the MAINTENANCE section. Drain and flush the fuel tank with clean fuel. The manufacturer recommends completely filling the tank with fuel for extended storage to minimize condensation inside the tank. It is recommended to only store kerosene in containers that are marked “KEROSENE”.

Servicing

WARNINGWARNING: A hazardous condition may result if a heater is used that has been modified or is not functioning properly. When the heater is working normally:

  • The flame is contained within the heater.
  • The flame is essentially yellow.
  • There is no strong disagreeable odor, eye burning, or another physical discomfort.
  • There is no smoke or soot internal or external to the heater.

FAQ’S

Can you use diesel in Dewalt kerosene heater?

The DXH185KT thermostatically controlled forced air kerosene heater burns at 185,000 BTU/HR and can be used with kerosene diesel, fuel oil or JP-8 fuels.

How long will a gallon of kerosene last in a kerosene heater?

It will go through a full tank of kerosene in about 10 hours. So, a 5 gallon kerosene can will only last you about 25 hours.

Is it OK to use a kerosene heater indoors?

Asphyxiation. Kerosene heaters consume oxygen as they burn. If they are operated in a small room or in an inadequately ventilated area, oxygen in the air could be reduced to a dangerous level.

How does a forced air kerosene heater work?

The wick draws kerosene from the tank via capillary action. Once lit, the wick heats the Kerosene until it turns into a gas (gasification) and this gas is then burnt which heats air via convection or nearby objects via radiation. The burner is designed to properly oxygenate and distribute the flames.

Do kerosene heaters need to be vented?

Provide adequate ventilation
Adequate ventilation is necessary for safe operation of the kerosene heater. Burning kerosene consumes oxygen and produces carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide and other gases.

What is the best fuel for a DEWALT kerosene heater?

The only fuel approved for DEWALT kerosene heaters is K-1 kerosene. K-1 kerosene is most commonly found at local convenience stores and service stations. Only buy kerosene that is rated K-1. Lesser quality fuels will produce odor and may cause other problems.

How long does it take DEWALT kerosene heater to warm up?

The DEWALT Kerosene Forced-air heater’s wick needs at least 60 minutes to soak up enough fuel to burn properly. It is important to WAIT 60 minutes ANYTIME the heater has completely burnt the fuel tank “dry”.

Why is my kerosene heater not working?

If your kerosene heater won’t light:
Make sure your heater is filled with quality K-2 grade kerosene, and that the wick has been soaked for at least an hour before attempting to light it. When you push the “ignite” button, the igniter should move into position above the wick surface and glow a bright orange.

How do you turn on a Dewalt heater?

Button all the way down that turns on the gas. And you’re going to light it. And you’re going to hold that down for a few seconds about 10 until the entire honeycomb is lit.

How do you reset a kerosene heater?

Drain the fuel tank and remove the wick assembly. Replace the wick and wick assembly and refill the fuel tank with kerosene.
Light the kerosene heater with little kerosene in the fuel tank. Allow it to burn dry until the flame starts to go out. …
Wait one hour, relight the wick with a match and let it burn out again.

How long does it take for a heater to reset?

Either way, restarting a furnace is a relatively simple task that takes no longer than 10 minutes to complete. Follow these steps to reset your gas furnace: Turn the circuit breaker off and switch the furnace power button off too. Never touch the breaker with wet hands and use only one hand to do it.

Can you leave a kerosene heater on all night?

Never use a space heater overnight in the room where you are sleeping. Dangerous levels of carbon monoxide could accumulate from fuel-fired heaters, or uncontrolled burning could cause a fire. Never use or store flammable liquids (such as gasoline) around a space heater.

What does kerosene do to your lungs?

Kerosene vapours may be mildly irritating to the respiratory system and spray applications of kerosene may provoke signs of pulmonary irritation such as coughing and dyspnoea. Kerosene aspiration leads to inflammation and loss of surfactant.
