Safety warnings for
oscillating tools
Choose the appropriate accessory
WARNING
• Do not use accessories that are not
specifically designed or recommended by the manufactu-
rer of this tool. Just because an attachment can be fitted to
your power tool does not guarantee safe operation.
• Use only accessories with holes that
CAUTION
match the tool's attachment.
• Use only accessories specific to the
CAUTION
material being worked on.
WARNING
• Do not use broken or damaged
accessories.
Before operating the tool
• Take your time to evaluate the work to be done and
make sure that you have observed all the necessary
precautions before starting work.
• Check that the accessory is securely
WARNING
fastened to the tool.
CAUTION
• Make sure the switch is turned off
before connecting the tool, otherwise the tool will start to
operate unexpectedly and may cause serious injury.
• To work on small parts or thin sheets, secure them with
clamps or brackets. Never use your hands for this purpose.
While operating the tool
• This power tool is designed for sawing, cutting, grinding
and sanding.
• Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications included with this power tool. Failure to
follow all instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
• When performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord, hold
the power tool by the insulated insulating surfaces. If the
rotating accessory contacts a live wire, exposed metal parts
of the power tool will also be electrified and the operator
may receive a shock.
• Use clamps or some practical way to secure and fasten
the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the workpiece
by hand or against your body causes instability and a likely
loss of control.
• Position the cable so that it is clear of the rotating
attachment. If you should lose control, the cable may be
cut, tangled, and your hand or arm may be pulled into the
rotating attachment.
• Always wear safety glasses or goggles. Regular eyeglasses
or sunglasses are NOT safety glasses.
• Avoid cutting nails. Check the workpiece and remove all nails
before using the tool.
• Hold the tool firmly.
• Make sure the accessory is not making contact with the
workpiece before turning on the switch.
• Keep hands away from moving parts.
• Do not leave the tool running. Run the tool only when it is in
your hand.
• Always turn the tool off and wait until the cutter has come to
a complete stop before removing the blade from the
workpiece.
• Do not touch the application part of the tool or the workpiece
immediately after use; they could be very hot and cause skin
burns.
• Do not operate the tool under vacuum unnecessarily.
• Always use the respirator/mask indicated for dust protection
corresponding to the application or material being worked on.
• Some materials contain chemicals that may be toxic. Take
precautions to avoid inhalation of dust or skin contact with
dust.
Consult the material supplier's safety information.
• This tool is not waterproof, so do not use water on the work
surface.
• Ventilate the work area adequately when sanding.
• Using this tool to sand some products, e.g. lead-based paint,
wood and metal surfaces may expose the user to dust
containing hazardous substances.
• Make sure there are no cracks or tears in the pad before using
the tool. Breaks and cracks may cause personal injury.
• Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on the application, wear face shield or goggles.
As appropriate, use ear protectors, gloves and work apron
capable of stopping fragments generated by the workpiece.
Eye protection must be capable of stopping particles that are
projected from various operations. The dust mask or respirator
must be capable of filtering particles generated during the
operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise can
cause hearing loss.
• Keep people around at a safe distance away from the work
area.
• Never place the power tool on the ground until the accessory
has come to a complete stop.
• Do not run the power tool when it is charging on its side.
• Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials.
• Do not use accessories that require cooling fluids.
• Always make sure the tool is turned off and disconnected
before making any inspections or adjustments to the tool.
• If the work place is extremely hot and humid or heavily
contaminated with conductive dust, use a short circuit breaker
(30 mA).
