• 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 spe-
cially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

Always remember that a careless fraction of a sec-

• THINK SAFETY! SAFETY IS A COMBINATION
OF OPERATOR’S COMMON SENSE, KNOWL-
EDGE OF THE SAFETY AND OPERATING IN-
STRUCTIONS AND ALERTNESS AT ALL TIMES
WHEN THE TILE SAW IS BEING USED.
