1£ WARNING I
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling
and other construction activities contains chemicals known (to

reproductive harm. Some examples ofthese 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 those dust masksthat are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
To avoid electrical hazards, fire hazards or damage to the tool,
use proper circuit protection.

instructJoos. Failure to follow all
IOStrucooos isted below may
result m electric shock, fire
and/or senous personal injury.
WORKAREA
Keep your work area clean and
well lit. Cluttered benches and
dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such

POWER TOOL SAFETY
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Double insulated tools are
equipped with a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the
other). This plug will fit in a
polarized plug only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully in the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install a
polarized outlet. Do not
change the plug in any way.
Double insulation eliminates the
need for the three wire grounded
power cord and grounded power
supply system.
Avoid body contact with
grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is increased
risk of electric shock if your body
is grounded.
Don't expose power tools to
rain or wet conditions. Water
entering the power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never
use the cord to carry the tools
or pull the plug from an outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts.
Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords
increase the risk of electric shoel
When operating a power tool
outside, use an outdoor
extension cord marked "W-A"
or "W". These cords are rated
for outdoor use and reduce the
risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool.
Do not use the tool while tired
or under the influence of drug!
alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result
in se~ous personal InJury.
