• Do not use with power switch locked
on.

implemented – it prevents sustained
electrical shock.

Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities,
contains chemicals known [to the
State of California] 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 or other masonry products
• 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. (California Health & Safety
Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
10.
Handling the Power Cord on this
product will expose you to lead,
a chemical known to the State of
California to cause cancer, and
birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Wash hands after handling.

Vibration Safety

This power tool vibrates during use.
Repeated or long-term exposure to
vibration may cause temporary or
permanent physical injury, particularly
to the hands, arms and shoulders. To
reduce the risk of vibration-related
injury:
1.
Anyone using vibrating power tools
regularly or for an extended period
should first be examined by a doctor
and then have regular medical check-
ups to ensure medical problems are
not being caused or worsened from
use. Pregnant women or people
who have impaired blood circulation
to the hand, past hand injuries,
nervous system disorders, diabetes,
or Raynaud's Disease should not
use this tool. If you feel any medical
or physical symptoms related to
vibration (such as tingling, numbness,
and white or blue fingers), seek
medical advice as soon as possible.
2.
Do not smoke during use. Nicotine
reduces the blood supply to the
hands and fingers, increasing the risk
of vibration-related injury.
3.
Wear suitable gloves to reduce the
vibration effects on the user.
4.
Use power tools with the lowest
vibration when there is a choice
between different processes.
