IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,

chemicals known (to the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects

or other reproductive harm. Some example of these chemicals are:

lead from lead-based paints

crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products

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, always

wear MSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator when
