Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live”

c. Let bit cool before touching, changing
or adjusting it. Bits heat up dramatically
while in use, and can burn you.
d. If the drill bit jams, release the

Masonry drilling on materials such as
concrete (which contains crystalline silica)
can cause silicosis (a serious lung disease),
cancer and death. To reduce crystalline silica
exposures in the workplace and prevent
silicosis and silicosis-related deaths:
a. Conduct air monitoring to measure
worker exposures.
b. Use containment methods to control the hazard
and protect adjacent workers from exposure.
c. Practice good personal hygiene to avoid
unnecessary exposure to silica dust.
d. Wear washable or disposable protective
clothes at the work site. Shower and change
into clean clothes before leaving the work site
to prevent contamination of cars, homes and
other work areas. Avoid skin exposure.
e. Always wear a NIOSH approved respirator and
safety goggles. Ventilate the work area properly.
f. Provide periodic medical examinations for all
workers who may be exposed to crystalline silica.
g. Post signs to warn workers about
the hazard and to inform them about
required protective equipment.
h. Provide workers with training that includes
information about health effects, work practices
and protective equipment for crystalline silica.
i. Report all cases of silicosis to State health
departments and to OSHA or the Mine
Safety and Health Administration (MSHA).

This tool vibrates during use.
Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may
cause temporary or permanent physical injury,
particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
a. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for
an extended period should first be examined
by a doctor and then have regular medical
check-ups to ensure medical problems are not
being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant
women or people who have impaired blood
