WARNING:
Read all safety warnings and all instructions provided with
your Power Unit (BDCDMT112, BDCDMT120, or BDEDMT) before using
this attachment.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
•
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
•
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.
•
Disconnect power before using tool near live wires or where there may be hidden wiring.
Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and could give the operator an electric shock.” Always check for hidden wiring, gas
lines, or other utilities before performing any material cutting or removal operations with the tool.
•
Wait for the cutter to stop before setting the tool down
.
An exposed cutter may engage
the surface leading to possible loss of control and serious injury.
•
Do not operate this tool for long periods of time.
Vibration caused by the operating action
of this tool may cause permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use gloves to provide
extra cushion, take frequent rest periods, and limit daily time of use.
•
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.
•
Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece.
Let the tool reach full speed and
carefully re-enter the cut.
•
Do not “jam” the cut-off saw blade or apply excessive pressure.
Do not attempt to make
an excessive depth of cut.
•
Keep your hands away from cutting area.
Do not reach under the material being cut.
•
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.
•
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 are 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.
•
Do not use sandpaper intended for larger sanding pads.
Larger sandpaper will extend
beyond the sanding pad causing snagging, tearing of the paper or kick-back. Extra paper
extending beyond the sanding pad can also cause serious lacerations.
WARNING:
ALWAYS
use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses.
Also use face or dust mask. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
•
ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CPA Z94.3),
•
ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
•
NOSH/OSHA respiratory protection.
