WARNING!
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities contains
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.
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.
•
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities. Wear
protective clothing and wash exposed
areas with soap and water.
Allowing dust
to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the
skin may promote absorption of harmful
chemicals.
