•
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support
the workpiece to a stable platform
. Holding the work by hand
or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• Accessories must be rated for at least the speed
recommended on the tool warning label.
Wheels and other
accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause
injury. Accessory ratings must be above listed minimum wheel
speed as shown on tool nameplate.
• Wear safety goggles or other eye protection.
Hammering and
drilling operations cause chips to fly. Flying particles can cause
permanent eye damage.
• Keep handles dry, clean, free from oil and grease. it is
recommended to use rubber gloves.
This will enable better
control of the tool.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time.
Vibration
caused by the operating action of this tool may cause permanent
injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use gloves to provide extra
cushion, take frequent rest periods, and limit daily time of use.
•
Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
•
An extension cord must have adequate wire size for safety.
An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss
of power and overheating. When using more than one extension
to make up the total length, be sure each individual extension
contains at least the minimum wire size. 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.

WARNING:
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.
•
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities.
Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with
soap and water.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or
lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
