WARNING:

The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage.

We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with side shields. Always use eye protection which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
