Additional Safety Warnings
a. GFCI and personal protection devices
like electrician’s rubber gloves and
footwear will further enhance your
personal safety.
b. Keep handles dry, clean and free from
oil and grease. Slippery hands cannot
safely control the power tool.
c. Develop a periodic maintenance
schedule for your tool. When cleaning
a tool be careful not to disassemble
any portion of the tool since internal
wires may be misplaced or pinched or
safety guard return springs may be
improperly mounted. Certain cleaning
agents such as gasoline, carbon
tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may
damage plastic parts.
d. Ensure the switch is in the off position
before inserting battery pack. Inserting
the battery pack into power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
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.
