3. Specific Safety Rules and Symbols

Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when per-
forming an operation where the cutting tool may con-
tact hidden wiring.
Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal
parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
WARNING: Some dust created by grinding, sanding,
cutting and drilling contains chemicals known to cause
cancer, birth defects, infertility or other reproductive
harm; or serious and permanent respiratory or other
injury. Some examples of these chemicals are: lead from
leadbased paints, crystalline silica from bricks, concrete
and other masonry products and natural stone, arsenic
and chromium from chemicallytreated lumber. Your risk
from these exposures varies, depending on how often
you do this type of work. To reduce exposure to these
chemicals, the operator and bystanders should work
in a well-ventilated area, work with approved safety
equipment, such as respiratory protection appropriate
for the type of dust generated, and designed to filter
out microscopic particles and direct dust away from
the face and body. Avoid prolonged contact with dust.
Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with
soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth,
eyes, or to remain on your skin may promote absorption
of harmful chemicals.
