Additional Safety Warnings
Safety Rules for Oscillating Tools
k. Before scraping, check workpiece for
nails. If there are nails, either remove
t
hem or set them well below intended
finished surface. Striking a nail with
accessory edge could cause the tool to
jump.
l. Do not wet sand with this tool. Liquids
entering the motor housing can create
an electrical shock hazard.
m. 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.
n. 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
h
ealth complications.
o. Use special precautions when sanding
chemically pressure treated lumber,
paint that may be lead based, or any
other materials that may contain
carcinogens. A suitable breathing
respirator and protective clothing must
be worn by all persons entering the
work area. Work area should be sealed
by plastic sheeting and persons not
protected should be kept out until
work area is thoroughly cleaned.
p. 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.
Use only Dremel B20V20 or the batteries
listed in the battery/charger list. Using other
types of batteries may result in personal
injury or property damage.
Ensure the switch is in the off position
before inserting battery pack. Inserting the
battery pack into power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
Always inspect accessories for damage
(breakage, cracks) before each use. Never
use if damage is suspected.
GFCI and personal protection devices like
electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear will
further enhance your personal safety.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil
and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely
control the power tool.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for
your tool. When cleaning a tool be careful
not to disassemble any portion of the tool
since internal wires may be misplaced or
pinched or safety guard return springs may
be improperly mounted. Certain cleaning
agents such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride,
ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
Risk of injury to user. The power cord must
only be serviced by a Bosch Factory Service
Center or Autho rized Bosch Service Station.
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known 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.
