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 work piece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• When working on a ladder or on scaffolding be sure to lay the tool down on its side when
not in use.
Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright but may be easily knocked over.
• Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach underneath the material for any reason. Hold
front of saw by grasping the contoured gripping area. Do not insert fingers or thumb into the
vicinity of the reciprocating blade and blade clamp. Do not stabilize the saw by gripping the shoe.
• Keep blades sharp. Dull blades may cause the saw to swerve or stall under pressure.
• When cutting pipe or conduit ensure that they are free from water, electrical wiring, etc.
• Allow the motor to come to a complete stop before withdrawing the blade from the kerf
(the slot created by cutting).
A moving blade may impact the workpiece causing a broken
blade, workpiece damage or loss of control and possible personal injury.
• Never hold work in your hand, lap or against parts of your body when sawing. The saw
may slip and the blade could contact the body causing injury.
• Keep handles dry, clean, free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of the tool.
• Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy use. Dust and grit containing metal
particles often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create an electric shock hazard.
• 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.
WARNING:
ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use
face or dust mask if drilling operation is dusty. 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.
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 approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with
soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote
absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING:
Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious
and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NOSH/OSHA approved respiratory
protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
