Additional Rules for Safe Operation

■Know your power tool. Read operator's manual carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or serious injury.

■Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eye- glasses have only impact-resistant lenses; they are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

■Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

■Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended periods of operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

■Don't abuse cord. Never carry the tool by the cord or yank it to disconnect it from the recep- tacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.

■Make sure your extension cord is in good con- dition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an extension cord 25 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding 50 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage num- ber, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.

■Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have repaired at your nearest authorized ser- vice center. Constantly stay aware of cord loca-

tion. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.

■Check damaged parts. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended func- tion. Check for alignment of moving parts, bind- ing of moving parts, breakage of parts, mount- ing, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or serious injury.

WARNING:

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known 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.

The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible dangers. The safety symbols, and the explanations with them, deserve your careful attention and understanding. The safety warnings do not by themselves eliminate any danger. The instructions or warnings they give are not substitutes for proper accident prevention measures.
