Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may
affect the power tool's operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tools may contact
hidden wiring. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator. Do not drill, fasten or break
into existing walls or other blind areas where
electrical wiring may exist. If this situation is
unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit
breakers feeding this worksite.
Use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
Use a metal detector to determine if there
are gas or water pipes hidden in the work
area or call the local utility company for
assistance before beginning the operation.
Striking or cutting into a gas line will result in
explosion. Water entering an electrical device
may cause electrocution.
Always hold the tool firmly with both hands for maximum control. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Do
not reach under the material being cut. The
proximity of the blade to your hand is hidden
from your sight.
Safety Rules for Oscillating Tools
-3-
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Do not use dull or damaged blades. Bent
blade can break easily or cause kickback.
Exercise extreme caution when handling
the accessories. The accessories are very
sharp.
Wear protective gloves when changing
cutting accessories. Accessories become
hot after prolonged usage.
Use thick cushioned gloves and limit the
exposure time by taking frequent rest
periods. Vibration caused by the tool may be
harmful to the hands and arms.
Before scraping, check workpiece for nails.
If there are nails, either remove them or set
them well below intended finished surface.
Striking a nail with accessory edge could
cause the tool to jump.
Do not wet sand with this tool. Liquids
entering the motor housing is an electrical
shock hazard.
Never work in area which is soaked with a
liquid, such as a solvent or water, or
dampened such as newly applied
wallpaper. There is an electrical shock
hazard when working in such conditions with a
power tool and heating of the liquid caused by
scraping action may cause harmful vapors to
be emitted from workpiece.
Always wear eye protection and a dust
mask for dusty applications and when
