Abstract: A method of using an oscillating accessory with an oscillating power tool may include providing an attachment member. The attachment member may include an attachment plate, a raised rim portion extending from the attachment plate, the raised rim having a central recess, a keyed sidewall with an at least partially star shape configured to be engaged by a first mating geometry of an oscillating power tool, and a top wall that includes a receiving portion having a plurality of recesses configured to be engaged by a second mating geometry of an oscillating power tool. The central recess may not be in communication with any of the plurality of recesses. The attachment member may be used to facilitate tool-free attachment of a working portion to the oscillating power tool via a clamp assembly having a first clamp member moveable relative to a second clamp member without use of a secondary tool.

Abstract: An accessory for use with an oscillating power tool includes an attachment portion having a first planar member, a second planar member parallel to the first planar member, a central opening defined in one of the first planar member and the second planar member, a keyed sidewall disposed at least partially around the central opening and extending from the first planar member to the second planar member transverse to the first planar member and to the second planar member, and a plurality of equiangularly spaced recesses defined in one of the first planar member and the second planar member, the recesses spaced apart from the keyed sidewall and not in communication with the central opening. A working portion may be couplable to the attachment portion and configured to perform an operation on a workpiece.

Abstract: An accessory for use with an oscillating power tool includes an attachment plate and a raised annular rim extending from the attachment plate. The raised annular rim has a central recess and a keyed sidewall with a star shape configured to be engaged by a first mating geometry of an oscillating power tool. The raised annular rim may further include a receiving portion formed thereon configured to be engaged by a second mating geometry of an oscillating power tool.

Abstract: A clamp arrangement for securing an accessory to an oscillating power tool can include a clamp assembly including a first clamp member that moves relative to the accessory between a closed position wherein the clamp assembly retains the accessory and an open position wherein the first clamp is offset from the accessory permitting removal of the first accessory from the clamp assembly. The clamp assembly can further comprise a second clamp member having a first portion that opposes the first clamp member and cooperates with the first clamp member to clamp the accessory between the first and second clamp members. An attachment plate can carry the clamp assembly. The attachment plate can have a first mating detail formed thereon that is configured to selectively and removably mate with a complementary second mating detail on the power tool in an assembled position.

Abstract: A machine according to the present teachings can include a machine housing and a drive mechanism disposed in the machine housing and driving an output member. An input member can be associated with the machine housing for activating the drive mechanism. A working member can be driven by the output member. A light source can be coupled to the machine housing that projects UV light onto an area proximate to the working member. According to additional features, the light source can comprise a UV light source. According to other features, the light source can collectively define a light emitting device and a filter. The filter can allow black light to pass therethrough. The light emitting device can comprise an incandescent bulb, a light emitting diode, or a fluorescent bulb according to various examples.

Abstract: A handheld power tool can include a tool housing having a trigger assembly. A motor can be disposed in the tool housing. The motor can drive an output member and be activated by the trigger assembly. A cutting member can be driven by the output member. A UV light source can be coupled to the tool housing. The UV light source can project UV light onto an area proximate to the cutting member.
