Tool Specifications - DeWalt DWSL18CAP Instruction Manual

• Do not drive fasteners blindly into
walls, floors or other work areas.
Fasteners driven into live electrical wires,
plumbing, or other types of obstructions
can result in injury. (Fig. U)
• Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool. Do
not use tool while tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals
known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry
products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you
do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
WARNING: ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask
if operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY
EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA/Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

The DWSL18CAP requires 2.68 cubic feet per minute or cfm
(75.9 liters per minute or lt/min) of free air at 80 psi (5.6 kg/cm
to operate at a rate of 60 fasteners per minute. To determine the
appropriately sized air compressor, take the actual rate at which
the tool will be run and compare the required cfm (lt/min) to the
compressors free air delivery (cfm/ lt/min) at 80 psI (5.6 kg/cm
