,_ WARNING
Some dust created by using power tools contains chemicals known to the state
of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
® Lead from lead-based paints
® Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and 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 dust
masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
