Specifi c Safety Rules for Worklights
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not operate worklight or charger near flammable liquids or in
gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Internal sparks may ignite fumes causing personal injury.
• Do not expose worklight to wet or damp areas. Use only indoors in a dry location. Do
not allow any liquid to get inside worklight. Do not submerge worklight in any liquid.
• The worklight is intended for household and commercial use.
• Before using battery and charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on charger,
battery pack, and product using battery pack.
• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in
this manual. The worklight and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.
• Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting worklight. This will reduce risk of
damage to electric plug and cord.
• Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress.
• Use only a proper extension cord that is necessary to operate the DCL061 worklight on
AC power (refer to Use of Extension Cords with Worklight). Use of an improper extension
cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution.
• Place the worklight in a position away from any heat source.
• Do not disassemble worklight. Take it to an authorized service center when service or
repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or
fire.
• Disconnect the worklight from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. This will
reduce the risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.
• The DCL061 worklight is designed to operate on 120 Volts, 60 Hz AC. Both the DCL060
and DCL061 operate on direct current (DC) through fully charged D
EWALT 18V nickel cadmium,
nickel metal hydride, lithium-ion battery packs and D
EWALT 20V Max* lithium-ion battery packs.
Do not use any other voltage.
• Use type SJ, SJE, SJO, SJOO, SJT, SJTO, or SJTOO cord when operating the worklight
on AC power.
WARNING: Do not place the worklight in a position which may cause anyone to
intentionally or unintentionally stare into the light. Serious eye injury could result.
CAUTION: When not in use, place worklight on a stable surface where it will not cause
a tripping or falling hazard. Some products with large battery packs will stand upright on the
battery pack but may be easily knocked over.

Grounding Instructions
DCL061 ONLY
In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The worklight must be connected to a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without
yellow stripes is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug
is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal. Check with a
qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the worklight is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug connected to the
worklight—if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
FOR GROUNDED, CORD-CONNECTED WORKLIGHTS RATED LESS THAN 15A AND

temporary adaptor, which looks like the adaptor
illustrated in sketch b, may be used to connect this
plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch b if
a properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adaptor should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adaptor must
be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the
adaptor is used, it must be held in place by the metal screw.
Use of Extension Cords with Worklight
Only use a grounded extension cord that is rated at least 12 amps and has a third-wire ground.
When a long extension cord is used to connect a worklight or tool, a voltage drop occurs. The
longer the cord, the greater the voltage drop. This results in less voltage being supplied to the
worklight or tool and increases the amount of current (amp) draw or reduces performance. A
heavier cord with a larger wire size will reduce the voltage drop. Be sure to choose a cord that will
supply enough voltage to operate your tool and/or worklight. The table below indicates appropriate
gauge for extension cords.
WARNING: Keep electrical cords in good condition. Do not use worn, bare, or frayed cords
because they can cause electrical shock.
WARNING: Operating equipment at low voltage can cause it to overheat. Using an excessively
long extension cord can cause the cord to overheat.

Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Packs
Both the DCL060 and DCL061 worklights will provide light using 18V DEWALT nickel cadmium,
nickel metal hydride, lithium-ion battery packs and D
EWALT 20V Max* lithium-ion battery packs.
NOTE: The DCL061 worklight is also designed to operate on 120 Volts, 60 Hz AC.
When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure to include catalog number and voltage. Consult
the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of chargers and battery packs.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. Before using the battery pack and charger,
read the safety instructions below. Then follow charging procedures outlined.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not charge or use battery in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the battery from the charger may
ignite the dust or fumes.
• NEVER force battery pack into charger. DO NOT modify battery pack in any way to fit
into a non-compatible charger as battery pack may rupture causing serious personal
injury. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of batteries and chargers.
• Charge the battery packs only in D
EWALT chargers.
• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may
reach or exceed 105 °F (40 °C) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
For best life, store battery packs in a cool, dry location.
DANGER: Electrocution and Fire Hazard. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any
reason. If the battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into the charger. Do not crush,
drop or damage the battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp
blow, been dropped, run over or damaged in any way (e.g., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer,
stepped on). Damaged battery packs should be returned to the service center for recycling.
NOTE: Battery storage and carrying caps are provided for use whenever the battery
is out of the tool or charger. Remove cap before placing battery in charger or tool.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so that metal objects
can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place battery in
aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails,
screws, keys, etc. without battery cap. 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 U.S. Department of Transportation Hazardous Material
Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e., packed
in suitcases and carry-on luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So
when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well
insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR NICKEL CADMIUM (NiCd) OR NICKEL METAL
HYDRIDE (NiMH)
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn
out. The battery pack can explode in a fire.
• A small leakage of liquid from the battery pack cells may occur under extreme usage
or temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure.
However, if the outer seal is broken:
a. and the battery liquid gets on your skin, immediately wash with soap and water for several
minutes.
b. and the battery liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of
10 minutes and seek immediate medical attention. (Medical note: The liquid is 25–35%
solution of potassium hydroxide.)
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM ION (Li-Ion)
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely
worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created when
lithium ion battery packs are burned.
• If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with mild
soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for 15 minutes
or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is composed of a
mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
• Contents of opened battery cells may cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If
symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.

Seal
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corp oration) Seal on the nickel
cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion batteries (or battery packs) indicate that
the costs to recycle these batteries (or battery packs) at the end of their useful life
have already been paid by D
EWALT. 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 RBRC program provides an environmentally conscious
alternative.
RBRC™ in cooperation with D
EWALT and other battery users, has established programs 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 D
EWALT
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 the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation.
Using Automatic Tune-Up™ Mode
(NiCd/NiMH only)
The automatic Tune-Up™ Mode equalizes or balances the individual cells in the battery pack
allowing it to function at peak capacity. Battery packs should be tuned up weekly or after
10 charge/discharge cycles or whenever the pack no longer delivers the same amount of work. To
use the automatic Tune-Up™, place the battery pack in the charger and leave it for at least 8 hours.
The charger will cycle through the following modes.
1. The red light will blink continuously indicating that the 1-hour charge cycle has started.
2. When the 1-hour charge cycle is complete, the light will stay on continuously and will no longer
blink. This indicates that the pack is fully charged and can be used at this time.
3. If the pack is left in the charger after the initial 1-hour charge, the charger will begin the
Automatic Tune-Up™ mode. This mode continues up to 8 hours or until the individual cells in
the battery pack are equalized. The battery pack is ready for use and can be removed at any
time during the Automatic Tune-Up™ mode.
4. Once the Automatic Tune-Up™ mode is complete, the charger will begin a maintenance
charge; the red indicator will remain lit.
