Use And Care Manual
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
Some dust created by using power tools contain 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 dust masks that
are specially designed to lter 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 or eyes or
to lie on the skin may promote absorption of harmful
chemicals.
Safety is a combination of using common sense, staying
alert, and knowing how your mini wood lathe works. Read
this manual to understand this mini wood lathe and how to
use it safely.
