Some 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.
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 dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
Handling the power cord on corded products may expose you to lead, a chemical known to the
State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands
after handling.
WORK AREA SAFETY
Inspect the work area before each use. Keep the work area clean, dry, free of clutter, and well lit.
Cluttered, wet, or dark work areas can result in injury.
Do not use the Concrete Cutter where there is a risk of causing a fire or an explosion; e.g., in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. The cutter can create sparks, which may ignite the
flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
Do not allow the Concrete Cutter to come into contact with an electrical source. The cutter is not
insulated and contact will cause electrical shock.
Keep children and bystanders away from the work area while operating the Concrete Cutter. Do
not allow children to handle the cutter.
Be aware of all power lines, electrical circuits, water pipes, and other mechanical hazards in your
work area. Some of these hazards may be hidden from your view and may cause personal injury
and/or property damage if contacted.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the Concrete
Cutter. Do not use the cutter while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
Use ANSI Z87.1-approved safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields, or when needed, a
face shield. Use a dust mask in dusty work conditions. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hardhat,
gloves, dust collection systems, and hearing protection when appropriate. This applies to all
persons in the work area.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before starting the Concrete Cutter. A wrench or key that is
left attached to a rotating part of the cutter may cause personal injury.
No smoking, matches, or open flames around machine. Fuel is flammable.
Do not touch hot surfaces.
