SAFETY GUIDELINES - DEFINITIONS

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, always wear 

MSHA/NIOSH

approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator when using such tools.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE

USING THIS EQUIPMENT. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock,
fire, and/or serious personal injury or property damage.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Woodworking can be dangerous if safe and proper operating procedures are not followed. As with all machinery, there
are certain hazards involved with the operation of the product. Using the machine with respect and caution will
considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored,
personal injury to the operator may result. Safety equipment such as guards, push sticks, hold-downs, featherboards,
goggles, dust masks and hearing protection can reduce your potential for injury. But even the best guard won’t make
up for poor judgment, carelessness or inattention. Always use common sense and exercise caution in the workshop.
If a procedure feels dangerous, don’t try it. Figure out an alternative procedure that feels safer. 

REMEMBER:

Your

personal safety is your responsibility. For additional information please visit our website
