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 health 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
Use only Bosch or AMPShare BAT612
or the batteries
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.
Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC
power supply. While the tool may appear
to work, the electrical components of the
AC rated tool are likely to fail and create a
hazard to the operator.
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.

listed in the battery/
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.
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.
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.
