eign objects being blown into eyes,
which can result
in eye damage. Always wear safety goggles or glasses
with side shields when operating dust extractor.
• Wear a dust mask or use an OSHA compliant
dust extraction solution

•
Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking
such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
•
Do not pick up soot, cement, plaster or drywall
dust without filter in place.
These are very fine
particles that may affect the performance of the motor

WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activi-
ties 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.
•
Do not put any object into openings.
Do not use
with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair,
and anything else that may reduce air flow.
•
Maintain dust extractor. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the dust
extractor's operation. If damaged, have the dust
extractor repaired before use.
Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.
•
Maintain labels and nameplates.
These carry im-
portant information. If unreadable or missing, contact
a
MILWAUKEE
service facility for a free replacement.
SERVICE
•
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
