Safety Warnings Specific for Wire Brushing Op
-
erations:
•
Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the
brush even during ordinary operation. Do not
overstress the wires by applying excessive load
to the brush.
The wire bristles can easily penetrate
light clothing and/or skin.
•
If the use of a guard is recommended for wire
brushing, do not allow any interference of the
wire wheel or brush with the guard.
Wire wheel or
brush may expand in diameter due to work load and
centrifugal forces.

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 paint
• 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.
