wARNING: Some dust particles
created by power sanding, contain
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.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically
treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending upon how often you do this type
of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment,
such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter microscopic
particles.
