WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities, contain chemicals known (to the State of California) 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 or 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 masks that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.
(California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
GROUNDING
WARNING!
Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly
grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with the tool. Never remove
the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the power cord or plug is
damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a service facility before use. If the plug will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
GROUNDED TOOLS: TOOLS WITH THREE PRONG PLUGS
Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong grounding
plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the tool should electrically
malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity
away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock. (See Figure A.)
The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the
grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected
to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically “live” terminal.
(See Figure A.)
