GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING:Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known 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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.

Always operate tool in a well-ventilated area and provide for proper dust
removal. Use dust collection system wherever possible. Exposure to the dust
may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury, including silicosis
(a serious lung disease), cancer, and death. Avoid breathing the dust, and avoid
prolonged contact with the dust. Allowing dust to get into your mouth or eyes,
or lay on your skin may promote absorption of harmful material. Always use
properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for
dust exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and water.

UNPACKINGANDCONTENTS
IMPORTANT:Due to modern mass production techniques, it is
unlikely the tool is faulty or that a part is missing. If you find anything
