Various dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling and other construction
activities contains 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 and
other masonry products, and
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
The risk from these exposures varies, depen-
ding 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 dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should
malfunction or break down while in use,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for
the electric current and reduces the risk of electric
shock to the operator. This appliance has a power
cord with equipment-grounding conductor and
grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into
an appropriate outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service person if you are in doubt
as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance if it will not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
This appliance is rated more than
15 amperes and is for use on a circuit having a
nominal rating of 120 volts, and is factory-
equipped with a specific electric cord and plug to
permit connection to a proper electric circuit.
Make sure that the appliance is connected to an
outlet having the same configuration as the plug.
