and water.
Allowing dust to get into
your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING:
Use of this tool can
generate and/or disperse dust, which may
cause serious and permanent respiratory
or other injury
. Always use NIOSH/OSHA
approved respiratory protection appropriate
for the dust exposure. Direct particles away
from face and body.

Sanding of lead-based paint is not
recommended.
See
Sanding: Lead
Based Paint
for additional information
before sanding paint.
• Clean your tool out periodically.
Extension Cords
When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating. The
following table shows the correct size
to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the
gauge number, the heavier the cord.
SYMBOLS
The label on your tool may include the
following symbols. The symbols and their
definitions are as follows:
V ..................volts
A ..................amperes
Hz ................hertz
W .................watts
min ..............minutes

or DC ...direct current
no ................no load speed
................Class I Construction

OTHER IMPORTANT SAFETY
WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS
SANDING
LEAD BASED PAINT
Sanding of lead based paint is NOT
RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of
controlling the contaminated dust. The
greatest danger of lead poisoning is to
children and pregnant women.
Since it is difficult to identify whether or not
a paint contains lead without a chemical
analysis, we recommend the following
precautions when sanding any paint:
PERSONAL SAFETY
• No children or pregnant women should
enter the work area where the paint
sanding is being done until all clean up is
completed.
• A dust mask or respirator should be
worn by all persons entering the work
area. The filter should be replaced daily
or whenever the wearer has difficulty
breathing.
•
NOTE:
Only those dust masks suitable for
working with lead paint dust and fumes
should be used. Ordinary painting masks
do not offer this protection. See your local
hardware dealer for the proper (NIOSH
approved) mask.
• NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING
should be done in the work area to
prevent ingesting contaminated paint
particles. Workers should wash and clean
up BEFORE eating, drinking or smoking.
Articles of food, drink, or smoking should
not be left in the work area where dust
would settle on them.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
• Paint should be removed in such a
manner as to minimize the amount of dust
generated.
• Areas where paint removal is occurring
should be sealed with plastic sheeting of
4 mils thickness.
• Sanding should be done in a manner to
reduce tracking of paint dust outside the work
area.
CLEANING AND DISPOSAL
• All surfaces in the work area should be
vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned daily
for the duration of the sanding project.
Vacuum filter bags should be changed
frequently.
• Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up
and disposed of along with any dust chips
or other removal debris. They should be
placed in sealed refuse receptacles and
disposed of through regular trash pick-up
procedures. During clean up, children
and pregnant women should be kept
away from the immediate work area.
• All toys, washable furniture and utensils
used by children should be washed
thoroughly before being used again.
