Environmental Safety - Black and Decker BCD701 Manual De Instrucciones

g ) 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.
5) Battery Tool Use and Care
a ) Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
b ) Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c ) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal
to another. Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause burns or a fire.
d ) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
6) Service
a ) 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.
Specific Safety Rules for Sanders
• Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the sanding
pad may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
Additional Safety Rules for Sanders
Sanding
Lead Based Paint
Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due
to the difficulty of controlling the contaminated dust.
The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and
pregnant women.
Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains
lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend the
following precautions when sanding any paint:
Personal Safety
• No children or pregnant women should enter the work
area where the paint sanding is being done until all clean
up is completed.
• A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons
entering the work area. The filter should be replaced daily
or whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing.
• NOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for working with
lead paint dust and fumes should be used. Ordinary
painting masks do not offer this protection. See your local
hardware dealer for the proper (NIOSH approved) mask.
• NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in
the work area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint
particles. Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE
eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or
smoking should not be left in the work area where dust
would settle on them.

Environmental Safety

• Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize
the amount of dust generated.
• Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed
with plastic sheeting of 4 mils thickness.
• Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of
paint dust outside the work area.
Cleaning and Disposal
• All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and
thoroughly cleaned daily for the duration of the sanding
project. Vacuum filter bags should be changed frequently.
• Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of
along with any dust chips or other removal debris. They
should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed
of through regular trash pick-up procedures. During clean
up, children and pregnant women should be kept away
from the immediate work area.
• All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children
should be washed thoroughly before being used again.
Additional Safety Information

WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CPA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

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
English
