TX-3 SAFETY
SAFETY WARNINGS
SILICA DUST WARNING:
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and other materials with silica in their composition
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 inhalation 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 substance known to cause cancer. When cutting such
materials, always follow respiratory precautions.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 MESSAGE:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contain
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:

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.
