electrical wiring may exist. If this situation is unavoidable, disconnect all
fuses or circuit breakers feeding this worksite.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. Do not use dull or damaged blades. Bent blades can break easily or cause
kickback.
5. Exercise caution when handling the accessories. The accessories are very
sharp.
6. Wear protective gloves when changing cutting accessories. Accessories
become hot after prolonged usage.
7. Limit the exposure time to vibration by taking frequent rest periods.
Vibration caused by the tool may be harmful to the hands and arms.
8. Before scraping, check the workpiece for nails. If found, either remove
them or set them well below intended finished surface. Striking a nail with
accessory edge could cause the tool to jump.
9. Do not wet sand with this tool. Water entering the motor housing is an
electrical shock hazard.
10. Never work in area which is wet or damp such as newly applied wallpaper.
There is an electrical shock hazard when working in such conditions with a
power tool and heating of the water caused by scraping action may
cause harmful vapours to be emitted from workpiece.
11. Always wear eye protection and a dust mask for dusty applications and
when sanding overhead. Sanding particles can be absorbed by your eyes
and inhaled easily and may cause health complications.
12. Use special precautions when sanding chemically pressure treated
lumber, lead-based paint, or any other material that may contain
carcinogens. A suitable breathing respirator and protective clothing must
be worn by persons entering the work area. The work area should be
sealed by plastic sheeting and persons not protected should be kept out
until work area is thoroughly cleaned.
13. 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 cuts.
14. Pease keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference.
