Storage Recommendations - DeWalt DC212 Guide D'utilisation

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 charger and battery pack to a location where the
surrounding air temperature is approximately 65 °F–75 °F (18
°– 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 affect on the battery pack.
5. Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power
supply, the exposed charging contacts inside the charger can
be shorted by foreign material. 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 charger before attempting to clean.
6. Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Don't allow any liquid to get inside
charger. Electric shock may result.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Never attempt to open the battery pack
for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or
cracks, return to a service center for recycling.

Storage Recommendations

1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away from
direct sunlight and excess heat or cold.
2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged
battery pack in a cool dry place out of the charger for optimal
results.
NOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted of
charge. The battery pack will need to be recharged before use.

Side Handle (Fig. 1)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, ALWAYS operate
the tool with the side handle (A) properly installed. Failure to do so
may result in the side handle slipping during tool operation and
subsequent loss of control. Hold tool with both hands to maximize
control.
The side handle clamps to the front barrel (collar) and may be
rotated 360˚ to permit right- or left-hand use. The side handle can
be tightened by rotating the black plastic portion of the side handle
clockwise. The side handle must be tightened sufficiently to resist the
twisting action of the tool if the accessory binds or stalls. Be sure to
grip the side handle at the far end to control the tool during a stall. To
loosen side handle, rotate counterclockwise.
