The lanyard connection is designed to stretch to absorb the shock of a drop. Any permanent stretch to the connection exposing the red marked internal coils indicates it has been compromised and must be serviced prior to reuse. • Always keep the tool and accessories tethered when working "at height". [Maximum lanyard length: 6 ft (2m)] • Use only with lanyards appropriate for this tool type and rated for at least 15 lbs (6.8 Kg). • Crush, cut or entanglement hazard. Do not use near moving parts, mechanisms or running machinery. • Do not anchor the tool lanyard to anything on your body. Anchor to a rigid structure that can withstand the forces of a dropped tool. • Make sure the lanyard is properly secure at each end prior to use. • Inspect tool and lanyard before each use for damage and proper function (including fabric and stitching). Do not use if damaged or not functioning properly. • Do not alter the lanyard connection or use in a manner other than as instructed in this manual. • Only attach tool to a lanyard with a locking carabiner. Do not attach by looping or knotting the lanyard. Do not use rope or cord. • Electrical shock hazard. Be sure power is off when working in high voltage areas. Some lanyards are conductive. • Dropped tools will swing on the lanyard, which could cause injury or loss of balance. • Do not carry the tool by attachment device or the lanyard. • Do not attach more than one tool to each lanyard. • Only use appropriate DeWALT brand attachment point. NEVER modify tools to create attachment points. • Only transfer the tool between hands while properly balanced in a stable orientation. • Do not attach lanyards to tool in a way that keeps guards, switches or lock-offs from operating properly. • Avoid getting tangled in the lanyard. • Keep lanyard away from the cutting area of the tool. • Do not use lanyards or attachment devices to get additional leverage from the tool. • Do not use for personal fall protection. • Falling object hazard! Only change accesories and attachments where a dropped object won't cause a hazard below you. Consult your AHJ or site supervisor for procedures for working at height. • Use multi-action and screw gate type carabiners. Do not use single action spring clip carabineers. The lanyard connection 10 is intended for use by competent personnel, who are trained and knowledgeable regarding working with tools in and around machinery and "at height". Fig. B 10 Motor Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate marking. Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and overheating. These tools are factory tested; if this tool does not operate, check power supply. Intended Use The DWE4997NVS and DWE4997VS heavy-duty die grinders have been designed for professional grinding.

Supervision is required when inexperienced operators use this tool. Features E-switch Protection™ The ON/OFF paddle switch has a no-volt release function. In the event of a power outage or other unexpected shut down, the paddle switch will need to be cycled (turned off and then on) to restart tool. E-Clutch™ This unit is equipped with an E-Clutch™ (Electronic Clutch), which in the event of a stall or wheel pinch, the unit will be shut off to reduce the reaction torque to the user. The switch needs to be cycled (turned off and then on) to restart tool. 6
