use both hands when operating. Many tools such as chain saws, hand-held sand-

ers, drills, routers, etc., require the use of both hands when operating. Also, hold stock
with both hands when buffing or sanding. This helps maintain tool and stock stability
and keeps hands away from the working area of the tool.
wArning! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
11.
other construction activities, contain 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.)
wArning! People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before us-
12.
ing this product. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to a heart pacemaker could
cause interference to or failure of the pacemaker.
In addition, people with pacemakers should adhere to the following:
•
Avoid operating power tools alone.
•
Don't use a power tool with the power switch locked on.
•
If powered via a power cord be certain that the tool is properly grounded. A ground
fault interrupt (GFCI) system is also a good precaution. This inexpensive device is a
good safety measure because it prevents a sustained electrical shock.
•
Properly maintain and inspect all tools before use to avoid electrical shock.
