Inhaling dust created as a result of construction projects could be hazardous to your health. Construction dust may contain
chemicals, which are known to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm in the State of California.
These chemicals could be, but are not limited to: lead from lead based paints, crystalline silica from bricks or cement, arsenic, and
chromium from chemically treated-lumber.
To reduce your risk of exposure to harmful materials: always wear a dust mask that is designed to filter out hazardous microscopic
contaminants, always work in a well ventilated area, and wear other approved safety equipment.
Wash hands after handling the power cord. Touching the power cord could expose you to lead, which is known in the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm.
All work areas should be clean and well lit. Accidents are more likely to occur in poorly lit and cluttered areas.
Do not operate power tools in the presence of flammable liquids, gas, or dust. Sparks created from the power tool could ignite
flammable materials.

This power tool is equipped with a polarized plug, meaning one blade is wider than the other and is designed to fit into a
standard polarized outlet. The plug will fit into polarized outlets only one way. DO NOT FORCE THE PLUG INTO THE OUTLET! If
the plug does not fit, a polarized outlet may need to be installed by a qualified electrician.
Keep the power cord in good condition, and replace damaged cords immediately. Do not use the cord to pull the plug from the
outlet. Keep the cord away from materials and surfaces that could damage cords. The risk of electric shock increases when the power
cord is damaged.
Always use the appropriate extension cord, making sure it is rated for use with power tools. Always be sure the extension cords
are in good condition, free of cuts or nicks in the insulation. If using the power tool in an outside area with an extension cord, make sure
the cord is rated for outdoor use.
