second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.
WARNING

foreign objects being thrown into the eyes,
which can result in severe eye damage.
Always wear safety goggles that comply with
ANSI Z87.1 (shown on
Package) before
commencing power tool operation.
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.
