• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in
this manual. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.
• These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging D
rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
• Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
• Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger. This will reduce risk of damage
to electric plug and cord.
• Make sure that 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 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.
• 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 smaller the gauge number, the heavier the
cord.

might block the ventilation slots and result in excessive internal heat. Place the charger
in a position away from any heat source. The charger is ventilated through slots in the top and
the bottom of the housing.
• Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug.
• Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise
damaged in any way. Take it to an authorized service center.
• Do not disassemble charger; 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 charger from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. This will
reduce the risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.
• NEVER attempt to connect two chargers together.
• The charger is designed to operate on standard 120 volt household electrical power.
Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the vehicular charger.

Charge Indicators
This charger is designed to detect certain problems that can arise. Problems are indicated by the red
light flashing at a fast rate. If this occurs, re-insert the battery pack into the charger. If the problem
persists, try a different battery pack to determine if the charger is working properly. If the new pack
charges correctly, then the original pack is defective and should be returned to a service center or
other collection site for recycling. If the new battery pack elicits the same trouble indication as the
original, have the charger and the battery pack tested at an authorized service center.
HOT/COLD DELAY
DCB101, DC9310
This charger has a hot/cold delay feature: when the charger detects a battery that is hot, it
automatically starts a delay, suspending charging until the battery has cooled. After the battery
has cooled, the charger automatically switches to the pack charging mode. This feature ensures
maximum battery life. The red light flashes long, then short while in the hot/cold delay mode.
DCB107, DCB112
The DCB107 and DCB112 chargers have a hot/cold delay feature. When the charger detects a
battery that is hot, it automatically delays charging until the battery has cooled. When the charger
detects a battery that is cold, it automatically delays charging until the battery has warmed.
The red light will continue to blink, but a yellow indicator light will be illuminated during this operation.
Once the battery has cooled, the yellow light will turn off and the charger will resume the charging
procedure.
LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the charge indicator showing Pack
Charged.
WEAK BATTERY PACKS: Weak batteries will continue to function but should not be expected to
perform as much work.
FAULTY BATTERY PACKS: This charger will not charge a faulty battery pack. The charger will
indicate faulty battery pack by refusing to light or by displaying problem pack or charger.
NOTE: This could also mean a problem with a charger.
PROBLEM POWER LINE (DCB101, DC9310)
Some chargers have a Problem Power Line indicator. When the charger is used with some portable
power sources such as generators or sources that convert DC to AC, the charger may temporarily
suspend operation, flashing the red light with two fast blinks followed by a pause. This indicates the
power source is out of limits.
Wall Mounting
DCB107, DCB112
These chargers are designed to be wall mountable or to sit upright on a table or work surface.
If wall mounting, locate the charger within reach of an electrical outlet. Mount the charger securely
using drywall screws at least 1" (25.4 mm) long, screwed into wood to an optimal depth leaving
approximately 7/32" (5.5 mm) of the screw exposed.
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 and 75°F (18° – 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an
air temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°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. LITHIUM ION ONLY: A cold battery pack will charge at about half the rate of a warm battery
pack. The battery pack will charge at that slower rate throughout the entire charging cycle and
will not return to maximum charge rate even if the battery pack warms.
4. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check operation of the receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance;
b. Check to see if the receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns the 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° – 24°C);
d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local service
center.
5. 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.
6. 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 it.
7. Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any other liquid.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Don't allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shock may
result.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Do not submerge the battery pack in any liquid or allow any liquid to
enter the battery pack. 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.
