Work areas should be sealed off from the rest of the
dwelling by sealing doorways with drop cloths.
•
Children, pregnant women or potentially pregnant
women and nursing mothers should not be present in
the work area until the work is done and all clean up
is complete.
•
Wear a dust respirator mask or a dual filter (dust and
fume) respirator mask which has been approved by the
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA),
the National Institute of Safety and Health (NIOSH), or
the United States Bureau of Mines. These masks and
replaceable filters are readily available at major hardware
stores. Be sure the mask fits. Beards and facial hair may
keep masks from sealing properly. Change filters often.
Disposable paper masks are not adequate.
•
Use caution when operating the heat gun. Keep the heat
gun moving as excessive heat will generate fumes which
can be inhaled by the operator.
•
Keep food and drink out of the work area. Wash hands,
arms and face and rinse mouth before eating or drinking.
Do not smoke or chew gum or tobacco in the work area.
•
Clean up all removed paint and dust by wet mopping the
floors. Use a wet cloth to clean all walls, sills and any other
surface where paint or dust is clinging. Do not sweep,
dry dust or vacuum. Use a high phosphate detergent or
trisodium phosphate (TSP) to wash and mop areas.
•
At the end of each work session put the paint chips and
debris in a double plastic bag, close it with tape or twist
ties, and dispose of properly.
•
Remove protective clothing and work shoes in the work
area to avoid carrying dust into the rest of the dwelling.
Wash work clothes separately. Wipe shoes off with a wet
rag that is then washed with the work clothes. Wash hair
and body thoroughly with soap and water.
Additional Safety Information
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
•
ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
•
ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
•
NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
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 and other
masonry products, and
•
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.
•
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities. Wear protective clothing and
wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing
dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/
or disperse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles
away from face and body.
WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)
during use. Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may contribute to
hearing loss.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side
on a stable surface where it will not cause a
tripping or falling hazard.
Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
•
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
•
If use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
necessary outdoors, use an extension cord suitable
for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
An extension cord must have adequate wire size
•
(AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller
the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity
of the cable, that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than 18
gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using
more than one extension to make up the total length,
be sure each individual extension contains at least the
minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
lower the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
