Wall Mounting
Some D
WALT chargers are designed to be wall mountable
e
or to sit upright on a table or work surface. If wall mounting,
locate the charger within reach of an electrical outlet, and
away from a corner or other obstructions which may impede
air flow. Use the back of the charger as a template for the
location of the mounting screws on the wall. Mount the
charger securely using drywall screws (purchased separately)
at least 1" (25.4 mm) long, with a screw head diameter of
0.28–0.35" (7–9 mm), screwed into wood to an optimal
depth leaving approximately 7/32" (5.5 mm) of the screw
exposed. Align the slots on the back of the charger with the
exposed screws and fully engage them in the slots.

output to permit fasteners to be located easily on the
driving accessory. Clutches are held apart by a light spring
pressure permitting the driving clutch to rotate without
turning the driven clutch and accessory. When sufficient
forward pressure is applied to the unit, the clutches engage
and rotate the spindle and accessories. A reversing switch
makes it possible to drive or loosen either right or left
hand fasteners.
