Do not alter or misuse tool. Any alteration or mod- ification is a misuse and may result in serious per- sonal injury.

This product is not intended for use as a dental drill, in human or veterinary medical applica- tions. Serious injury may result.

When using the steel saws, cutoff wheels, high speed cutters or tungsten carbide cutters, always have the work securely clamped. Never attempt to hold the work with one hand while using any of these accessories. The reason is that these wheels will grab if they become slightly canted in the groove, and can kickback causing loss of control resulting in serious injury. Your second hand should be used to steady and guide the hand holding the tool. When a cutoff wheel grabs, the wheel itself usu- ally breaks. When the steel saw, high speed cutters or tungsten carbide cutter grab, it may jump from the groove and you could lose control of the tool.

!WARNING Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,

drilling, and other construction activities con- tains 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.

This tool is not intended for use by children ages 14 and under.

Battery Disposal

Nickel-Cadmium Batteries

If equipped with a nickel-cadmium battery, the bat- tery must be collected, recycled or disposed of in an environmentally sound manner.

“The EPA certified RBRC Battery Recycling Seal on the nickel-cad- mium (Ni-Cd) battery indicates Robert Bosch Tool Corporation is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and

recycle these batteries at the end of their useful life, when taken out of service in the United States or Canada. The RBRC program provides a conve- nient alterative to placing used Ni-Cd batteries into the trash or the municipal waste stream, which may be illegal in your area.

Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on Ni- Cd battery recycling and disposal bans/restrictions in your area, or return your batteries to a Skil/Bosch/Dremel Service Center for recycling. Robert Bosch Tool Corporation’s involvement in this program is part of our commitment to preserving our environment and conserving our natural resources.”

!WARNING Do not attempt to disassemble the battery or remove any com-

ponent projecting from the battery terminals. Fire or injury may result. Prior to disposal, protect exposed terminals with heavy insulating tape to prevent shorting.

Alkaline Batteries

Commercially available alkaline cells can be disposed of in a municipal solid waste stream.
