WARNING: Some dust contains chemicals
known to State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• compounds in fertilizers,
• compounds in insecticides, herbicides
andpesticides,
• arsenic and chromium from chemically treatedlumber.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, wear
approved safety equipment such as dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopicparticles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities. Wear protective clothing and
wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing
dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmfulchemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate
and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious
and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always
use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away
from face andbody.
WARNING: Always wear proper
personal hearing protection that conforms
to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some

CAUTION:
When not in use, place tool on
its side on a stable surface where it will not cause a
tripping or falling hazard. Some tools will stand upright
but may be easily knockedover.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in movingparts.
• An extension cord must have adequate wire size
(AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller
the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity
of the cable, that is, 16gauge has more capacity than
18gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When
using more than one extension to make up the total length,
be sure each individual extension contains at least the
minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
lower the gauge number, the heavier thecord.
