Health hazard by dust

WARNING! various dust created by pow­
er sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and
other construction activities contains chemicals
known (to the State of California) to cause can­
cer, 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.
The risk from these exposures varies, depend­
ing on how often you do this type of work. To re­
duce your exposure to these chemicals: work in
a well ventilated area, and work with approved
safety equipment, such as dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic par­
ticles. Wash hands after handling.
