or MT18) before using this accessory.
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions may result in electric shock,

@Warning! Additional safety warnings
for oscillating tools
u Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact 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
u Use clamps or another practical way to se-
cure 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.
@Warning! Contact with or inhalation
of dusts arising from sanding applica-
tions may endanger the health of the
operator and possible bystanders.

designed for protection against dust
and fumes and ensure that persons
within or entering the work area are
also protected.

u Do not force the cutting blade into the
workpiece. Note that cutting sheet metal will
normally take more time than sawing thicker
wooden workpieces.
u When cutting metal spread a thin lm of oil
along the cutting line before cutting.
u When sanding new layers of paint before ap-
plying another layer, use extra ne grit.
u On very uneven surfaces, or when removing
layers of paint, start with a coarse grit. On
other surfaces, start with a medium grit. In
both cases, gradually change to a ne grit for a
smooth nish.
u Consult your retailer for more information on
available accessories.
