MK-X1318 SAFETY
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 MESSAGE
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities con -
tain chemicals known (to the State of California) 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
• Arsenic and chromium, from chemically treated lumber
For further information, consult the following sources:

http://www.dir.ca.gov/Title8/sub4.html
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.
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and other materials with silica in their compo -
sition may give off dust or mists containing crystalline silica. Silica is a basic component of sand,
quartz, brick clay, granite and numerous other minerals and rocks. Repeated and/or substantial inha -
lation of airborne crystalline silica can cause serious or fatal respiratory diseases, including silicosis.
In addition, California and some other authorities have listed respirable crystalline silica as a sub -
stance known to cause cancer. When cutting such materials, always follow respiratory precautions.
