example, do not place the battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool boxes,
product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable
surface where it will not cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some
tools with large battery packs will stand upright on the battery pack
but may be easily knocked over.
Transportation
WARNING: Fire hazard. Transporting batteries can possibly cause
fire if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with
conductive materials. 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.
D
WALT batteries comply with all applicable shipping regulations
e
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 D
WALT battery pack will be excepted
e
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,
D
WALT does not recommend air shipping lithium-ion battery packs alone
e
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 FLEXVOLT
Battery
TM
The D
WALT FLEXVOLT
battery has two modes: Use and Transport.
TM
e
Use Mode: When the FLEXVOLT
TM
18V product, it will operate as an 18V battery. When the FLEXVOLT
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 FLEXVOLT
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 Wh rating Example of Use and Transport Label Marking
might indicate 3 x 36 Wh, meaning 3
batteries of 36 Wh each. The Use Wh
rating might indicate 108 Wh
(1 battery implied).
Storage Recommendations
1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away from direct
sunlight and excess heat or cold. For optimum battery performance and
life, store battery packs at room 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.
nOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted of charge.
The battery pack will need to be recharged before use.
Labels on Charger and Battery Pack
In addition to the pictographs used in this manual, the labels on the charger
and the battery pack may show the following pictographs:
Read instruction manual before use.
See Technical Data for charging time.
Do not probe with conductive objects.
Do not charge damaged battery packs.
Do not expose to water.
Have defective cords replaced immediately.
Charge only between 4 ˚C and 40 ˚C.
Only for indoor use.
Discard the battery pack with due care for the environment.
Charge D

Do not incinerate the battery pack.
USE (without transport cap). Example: Wh rating indicates 108
