WARNING:
This product and some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction
activities may contain chemicals,
including
lead, known to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive
harm. Wash hands after handling.
Some examples
of these chemicals
are:
1. lead from lead-based
paints,
2. crystalline
silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products,
and
3. 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.
EXTENSION CORDS
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has
the capacity to handle the current the product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting
in overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine the minimum wire size required in an extension cord.
Only round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter's Laboratories (UL) should be used.
When working outdoors with a product,
use an extension cord that is designed for outside use.
This type of cord is designated with "W-A" or "W" on the cord's jacket. Before using any extension
cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.

can result in serious personal injury. Check extension cords before each use. If damaged replace
immediately.
Never use the product with a damaged cord since touching the damaged area could
cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.
