SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulated tools are constructed throughout with two separate layers of
electrical insulation or a double thickness of insulation between you and the tool's
electrical system. Tools built with double insulation are not intended to be
grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped with a two prong plug which permits
you to use extension cords without concern for maintaining a ground connection.
Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when
operating this tool. The insulation system is for added protection against injury
resulting from a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.
REPLACEMENT PARTS: When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
Repair or replace damaged cords.
SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: POLARIZED PLUGS
Polarized plugs (one blade is wider than the other) are used on equipment to
reduce the risk of electric shock. When provided, this plug will fit into a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: SANDERS
• ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION.
• Clean your tool out periodically.
• CAUTION: Some wood contains preservatives such as copper chromium
arsenate (CCA) which can be toxic. When sanding these materials extra care
should be taken to avoid inhalation and minimize skin contact.
OTHER IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS
Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due to the difficulty of
controlling the contaminated dust. The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to
children and pregnant women.
Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains lead without a
chemical analysis, we recommend the following precautions when sanding any
paint:

•PERSONAL SAFETY
• No children or pregnant women should enter the work area where the paint
sanding is being done until all clean up is completed.
• A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons entering the work
area. The filter should be replaced daily or whenever the wearer has
difficulty breathing.
• NOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead paint dust and
fumes should be used. Ordinary painting masks do not offer this protection.
See your local hardware dealer for the proper (NIOSH approved) mask.
• NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in the work area to
prevent ingesting contaminated paint particles. Workers should wash and
clean up BEFORE eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or
smoking should not be left in the work area where dust would settle on them.

•ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY

• Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the amount of
dust generated.
• Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with plastic
sheeting of 4 mils thickness.
• Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of paint dust
outside the work area.

•CLEANING AND DISPOSAL

• All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and thoroughly cleaned
daily for the duration of the sanding project. Vacuum filter bags should be
changed frequently.
• Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of along with any
dust chips or other removal debris. They should be placed in sealed refuse
receptacles and disposed of through regular trash pick-up procedures.
During clean up, children and pregnant women should be kept away from
the immediate work area.
• All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children should be washed
thoroughly before being used again.
