Vibration Safety - Chicago Electric 93632 Set Up And Operating Instructions Manual

• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid
electrical shock.
• Any power cord must be properly
grounded. Ground Fault Circuit Inter-
rupter (GFCI) should also be imple-
mented – it prevents sustained electrical
shock.
12. Some dust created by power sand-
ing, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities, contains chemi-
cals 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 ce-
ment 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 ventilat-
ed 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.)
13. WARNING: Handling the cord on this
product will expose you to lead, a chemi-
cal known to the State of California to
cause cancer, and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Wash hands after
handling. (California Health & Safety
Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
14. The warnings, precautions, and instruc-
tions discussed in this instruction manual
cannot cover all possible conditions and
situations that may occur. It must be
understood by the operator that common
sense and caution are factors which can-
not be built into this product, but must be
supplied by the operator.

vibration Safety

This tool vibrates during use. Repeated
or long-term exposure to vibration may
cause temporary or permanent physical
injury, particularly to the hands, arms and
shoulders. To reduce the risk of vibra-
tion-related injury:
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly
or for an extended period should first
be examined by a doctor and then have
regular medical check-ups to ensure
medical problems are not being caused
or worsened from use. Pregnant women
or people who have impaired blood cir-
culation to the hand, past hand injuries,
nervous system disorders, diabetes, or
Raynaud's Disease should not use this
tool. If you feel any symptoms related
to vibration (such as tingling, numbness,
and white or blue fingers), seek medical
advice as soon as possible.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine re-
duces the blood supply to the hands and
fingers, increasing the risk of vibration-
related injury.
3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibra-
tion effects on the user.
4. Use tools with the lowest vibration when
there is a choice between different pro-
cesses.
5. Include vibration-free periods each day
of work.
6. Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still
keeping safe control of it). Let the tool
do the work.
7. To reduce vibration, maintain the tool
as explained in this manual. If any
