EQUIPMENT:
ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
WARNING:
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
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.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust
from power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction
activities. Wear protective clothing
and wash exposed areas with soap
and water. Allowing dust to get into your
mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING:
generate and/or disperse dust, which may
cause serious and permanent respiratory
or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA
approved respiratory protection appropriate
for the dust exposure. Direct particles away
from face and body.

When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating. The
following table shows the correct size
to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage. The smaller the
gage number, the heavier the cord.
