A WORD TO THE USER

Do not wear loose clothing or any accessory –
flopping cuffs, dangling neckties and scarves, or
jewelry – that can catch in moving parts.
DUST PRECAUTION
Some dust created by construction activities may
cause silicosis or respiratory harm.
Your risk of exposure varies depending on how

work in a well ventilated area, use a dust control
system, and wear approved personal safety
equipment such as a dust/particle respirator
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
