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, 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.
• 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.

Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious and permanent
respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust

Use extra care when working into a corner because a sudden, sharp movement of the polisher
may be experienced when the wheel or other accessory contacts a secondary surface or a surface edge.
CAUTION: Do not operate this tool for long periods of time.
Vibration caused by the operating action of
this tool may cause permanent injury to fingers, hands and arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion, take
frequent rest periods and limit daily time of use.
