CX-HF HAND MIXERS — SILICOSIS/RESPIRATORY WARNINGS
WARNING
SILICOSIS WARNINGRESPIRATORY HAZARDS
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and
other materials with silica in their composition may give
off 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 cutting such
materials, always follow the respiratory precautions
mentioned above.
WARNING
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
sheet and/or consult your employer, the material
manufacturer/supplier, 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
effects.
Control dust, mist and fumes at the source where
possible. In this regard use good work practices and
follow the recommendations of the manufacturers or
suppliers, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupational and trade
associations. Water should be used for dust
suppression when wet cutting 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 materials being used.

CX-HF SERIES HAND MIXERS — RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
■
DO NOT spray water onto electric motor. Do not expose
equipment to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the
equipment will increase the risk of electric shock.
■
Double-insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit on a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug
in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the threewire grounder power cord and grounded power supply system.
■
AVOID body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased
risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
■
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor
extension cord marked "W-A" or "W". These cords are rated
for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
■
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool
on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of
the equipment may result in personal injury.

■
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of
the equipment in unexpected situations.
■
Do not force any tool. Use correct tool for your application. The
correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it is designed.
■
Do not use the equipment if switch does not turn on or off. Any
equipment that cannot be controlled with a switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
■
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts, and any other condition that may affect the operation
of the equipment. If damaged, have the equipment serviced
before using. Poorly-maintained equipment can cause
accidents.
■
Do not use the equipment in an environment with potentially
explosive atmosphere. Do not mix any solvents or solventcontaining substances with a flash point of below 69° F (21° C).
■
Make sure that the current voltage indicated on the rating
plate corresponds to the main power supply.
■
Position the cord clear of the rotating mixing paddle. Do not
wrap the cord around arm, wrist or other body parts. This can
cause injury.
