Help! My Old Dewalt Saws Won’t Take My Batteries – What Should I Do?

0
Asked By ToolNinja123 On

I received some older Dewalt tools as a gift, including the DW938 and DW939 saws, along with a DC759 drill. I have three batteries (DW9096 and DW9098) that work fine with the drill, but they don't fit or work in the saws at all. Is there a specific battery I should use, or do I need an adapter? Thanks in advance for any help!

You might want to check the battery compartment on the saws. Sometimes the connectors can get loose, especially in older models. If you have a Torx screwdriver, opening it up could give you an idea if anything’s off. Also, consider that the switches or motors might be the issue too.

I should’ve mentioned this earlier, but my problem isn’t the connection; it’s mainly that the batteries don’t fit in the saws at all. There’s a visible difference in the battery slots for the drill compared to the saws. Do you know what battery would be compatible?
