If Battery fluid comes in contact with skin, wash with soap and water and rinse with lemon juice and vinegar. If the fluid comes in contact with eyes, flush with water for several minutes and contact a doctor immediately. Never burn the Battery, as it can explode in a fire. Do not attempt to charge a leaking Battery. Contact local solid waste authorities for instructions on correct disposal or recycling of the Battery.

9.WARNING! 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 or 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. (California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
