SAFETY
MESSAGES

• Safety Instructions are proceeded by a graphic alert symbol

of DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION.

GASOLINE/PROPANE POWERED EQUIPMENT

harm.

• Gasoline is extremely ammable and poisonous. It

• Small gasoline engines produce high concentrations of car-

bon monoxide (CO) example: a 5 HP 4 cycle engine opera­ tion in an enclosed 100,000 cu. ft. area with only one change
of air per hour is capable of providing deadly concentrations

of CO in less than fteen minutes. Five changes of air in the

same area will produce noxious fumes in less than 30 min­ utes. Gasoline or propane powered equipment should not be
used in enclosed or partially enclosed areas. Symptoms of
CO poisoning include, headache, nausea, weakness, dizzi­ ness, visual problems and loss of consciousness. If symp­ toms occur - get into fresh air and seek medical attention
immediately.

ELECTRICAL POWERED EQUIPMENT

Extreme care must be taken when operating electric
models with water present: Ensure power cord is prop­erly grounded, is attached to a Ground-Fault-Interrupter
(GFI) outlet, and is undamaged.

• Check all electrical cables - be sure connections are tight and
cable is continuous and in good condition. Be sure cable is

correctly rated for both the operating current and voltage of

this equipment.

• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can

result in a risk of electric shock. Check with qualied electri-

cian or service person if there is any doubt as to whether the
outlet is properly grounded. Adhere to all local codes and

ordinances.

• NOTE: In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for the electric current to
dissipate. The machine is equipped with a grounded plug
and must be connected to an outlet that is properly installed
and properly grounded. DO NOT modify the plug provided on

the motor. If the plug does not t the outlet have a qualied

electrician install the proper receptacle.

• Switch motor OFF before disconnecting power.

or death.

• Do not modify the machine.

• Stop motor/engine when adjusting or servicing this equipment.

Maintain a safe operating distance from ammable

materials. Sparks from the cutting-action of this machine

can ignite ammable materials or vapors.

DUST WARNING

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, and

• Crystalline silica from bricks and concrete and other

masonry products.
Your risk of exposure to these chemicals varies depending

on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your risk:
work in a well ventilated area, use a dust control system, such

DUST AND CRYSTALLINE SILICA WARNING

REVISED JUNE 1, 2017

Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and other materials can generate dust,
mists and fumes containing chemicals known to cause serious or fatal injury or illness, such as
respiratory disease, cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. If you are unfamiliar with
the risks associated with the particular process and/or material being cut or the composition of
the tool being used, review the material safety data sheets and/or consult your employer, the
manufacturers/suppliers, governmental agencies such as OSHA and NIOSH and other sources
on hazardous materials. California and some other authorities, for instance, have published lists

of substances known to cause cancer, reproductive toxicity, or other harmful e󰀨ects.

Control dust, mist and fumes at the source where possible. In this regard use good work practices
and follow the recommendations of the manufacturers/suppliers, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupa­tional and trade associations. Water should be used for dust suppression when wet grinding/
cutting/drilling is feasible. When the hazards from inhalation of dust, mists and fumes cannot
be eliminated, the operator and any bystanders should always wear a respirator approved by
NIOSH/MSHA for the material being used.

Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete and other materials with silica in their composi-

tion may give o󰀨 dust or mists containing crystalline silica. Silica is a basic component of sand,

quartz, brick clay, granite and numerous other minerals and rocks. Repeated and/or substantial
inhalation of airborne crystalline silica can cause serious or fatal respiratory diseases, including
silicosis. In addition, California and some other authorities have listed respirable crystalline silica
as a substance known to cause cancer. When grinding/cutting/drilling such materials, always
follow the respiratory precautions mentioned above.

See more on the importance of dust prevention and silica warnings at osha.gov/silica.

See more concrete and silica dust supression training and educational
materials at edcoinc.com/silica-standards or scan the QR code at right.
