carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as
well as the specific potential hazards related to this
tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock, fire, or serious injury.
• Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses
have only impact-resistant lenses; they are NOT
safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of serious personal injury.
• Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask ifthe
operation is dusty. Following thisrule willreduce the
riskof serious personal injury.
• Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection dur-
ing extended periods of operation. Followingthis
rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
• Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged,
have repaired at your nearest Factory Service
Center or other Authorized Service Organiza-
tion. Constantly stay aware of cord location.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock or fire.
• Check damaged parts. Before further use of the
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should
be carefully checked to determine that it will
operate properly and perform itsintended func-
tion. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and
any other conditions that may affect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced by an authorized
service center. Following this rule willreduce the
riskof electricshock, fire, or serious injury.
• Don't abuse cord. Never carry the tool by the
cord or yank it to disconnect itfrom the recep-
tacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and sharp
edges. Followingthis rulewillreducethe riskof
electric shock or fire.
• Make sure your extension cord is in good condi-
tion. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at
least 16 is recommended for an extension cord
100 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding 100
feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number,
the heavier the cord. An undersized cord willcause
a drop in linevoltage resultingin lossofpower and
overheating.
• Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before
drilling. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
• Drugs, alcohol, medication. Do not operate tool
while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or any
medication. Followingthis rulewill reducethe riskof

,_k 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.
