Personal Safety

1. No children or pregnant women should enter the work area
where the paint sanding or wire brushing is being done
until all clean up is completed.
2. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons
entering the work area. The filter should be replaced daily or
whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing.
nOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead
paint dust and fumes should be used. Ordinary painting
masks do not offer this protection. See your local hardware
dealer for the proper approved mask.
3. NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the
work area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint particles.
Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking
or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking should not be
left in the work area where dust would settle on them.
Cleaning and Disposal
1. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed
of along with any dust chips or other removal debris. They
should be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed
of through regular waste pick-up procedures.
During clean up, children and pregnant women should be
kept away from the immediate work area.
2. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children
should be washed thoroughly before being used again.
Chasing

indicated on the shoe.
8. Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the
workpiece, do not change the angle of the cut. Changing
