WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of
• lead from lead-based paints,
these chemicals are:
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• 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.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the
and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed
skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause
approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away
from face and body.
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eye glasses are NOT safety
glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3)
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

• When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
