A WARNING: Some dust particles created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling and other construction jobs contains chemicals known
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples
of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending upon how often you do this
type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
• Work in a well-ventilated area,
• Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
A WARNING: The operation of any saw can result in
foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can result in
severe eye damage. Before beginning power tool operation,
ALWAYS wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shield
and a full face shield when needed. We recommend A Wide
