IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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 example of these chemicals are:
• 

lead from lead-based paints

• 

crystalline silica from bricks and cement and 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, always wear 

MSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator when using 

such tools.
When using air tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
