•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 NOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.

Symbols

•The label on your tool may include the following symbols. The symbols and their definitions are as follows:

V		volts	A		amperes
Hz		hertz	W		watts
min		minutes	no		alternating current
		direct current			no load speed
		Class I Construction			earthing terminal
	................			..................
		(grounded)		................	safety alert symbol
	................	Class II Construction	.../min or rpm		revolutions or reciprocation
		(double insulated)			per minute

•When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

			Minimum Gage for Cord Sets
Volts			Total Length of Cord in Feet
120V			0-25	26-50	51-100	101-150
			(0-7,6m)	(7,6-15,2m) (15,2-30,4m) (30,4-45,7m)
240V			0-50	51-100	101-200	201-300
			(0-15,2m) (15,2-30,4m) (30,4-60,9m) (60,9-91,4m)
