Table A shows the correct size to use depending
on cord length and nameplate ampere rating.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
9. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
loose clothing, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other
jewelry which may get caught in moving parts.
Nonslip footwear is recommended.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

Grounding Instructions
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK AND DEATH FROM INCORRECT GROUNDING WIRE CONNECTION
READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS:
110-120 V~ Grounded Tools: Tools with Three Prong Plugs
1. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
2. Do not modify the plug provided – if it will
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
3. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
The conductor with insulation having an outer
surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor.
If repair or replacement of the electric cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the equipmentgrounding conductor to a live terminal.
4. Check with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if in doubt as
to whether the tool is properly grounded.
6. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

Dust Reclaimer Safety Warnings
For Your Own Safety Read Instruction
Manual Before Operating
1. Wear eye protection.
2. Do not use with any openings blocked.
Keep openings clear of anything that may
limit air flow or hinder motor operation.
3. Do not use the Reclaimer without its
Filter (18) in place. Before each use,
make sure the Filter is not clogged.
4. This product is designed only to pick up dry debris.
Do not use the Dust Reclaimer to pick up
water (or any other liquid) from the floor or
containers such as sinks, tubs, barrels, etc.
5. When mounting the Dust Reclaimer to a wall surface,
make sure the wall and the mounting hardware
used (not included) are capable of supporting the
weight of the Dust Reclaimer and its contents.
6. Prior to drilling mounting holes in a wall surface,
check to make sure there are no hidden electrical
cables, gas or plumbing pipes in the drilling path.
7. Do not use for abrasives containing crystalline silica.
Silica containing abrasives have been linked to
severe respiratory disease such as silicosis.
Use proper abrasives such as aluminum oxide,
glass bead, or walnut shell.
8. DO NOT OPERATE WITH ANY GUARD
DISABLED, DAMAGED, OR REMOVED.
13. Industrial applications must follow OSHA guidelines.

15. Avoid unintentional starting.
Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
16. People with pacemakers should consult their
physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in
close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause
pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure.
17. WARNING: Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities, contains chemicals
known [to the State of California] 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 or other
masonry products
• 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.
(California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
9. The use of accessories or attachments not
recommended by the manufacturer may
result in a risk of injury to persons.
10. When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
11. Only use safety equipment that has been approved
by an appropriate standards agency. Unapproved
safety equipment may not provide adequate
protection. Eye protection must be ANSI-approved
and breathing protection must be NIOSH-approved
for the specific hazards in the work area.
12. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
18. WARNING: Handling the cord on this product will
expose you to lead, a chemical known to the State
of California to cause cancer, and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
(California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
19. The warnings, precautions, and instructions
discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all
possible conditions and situations that may occur.
