[. . . ] 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 chemicallytreated 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. Page 4 SYMBOLS Important: Some of the following symbols may be used on your tool. Proper interpretation of these symbols will allow you to operate the tool better and safer. SYMBOL V A Hz W min NAME Volts Amperes Hertz Watt Minutes Alternating Current n0 No Load Speed Class II Construction /min Per Minute Safety Alert Eye Protection DESIGNATION/EXPLANATION Voltage Current Frequency (cycles per second) Power Time Type of current Rotational speed, at no load Double-insulated construction Revolutions, strokes, surface speed, orbits etc. 120 Volts, 60 Hz, AC only, . 5 Amps ELECTRICAL DOUBLE INSULATION Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded. EXTENSION CORDS When using a power tool at a considerable distance from a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has the capacity to handle the current the tool will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter's Laboratories (UL) should be used. When working outdoors with a tool, use an extension cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is designated with "WA" on the cord's jacket. Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires and cut or worn insulation. **Ampere rating (on tool faceplate) 0-2. 0 2. 1-3. 4 3. 5-5. 0 5. 1-7. 0 7. 1-12. 0 12. 1-16. 0 Cord Length Wire Size (A. W. G. ) WARNING: The double insulated system is intended to protect the user from shock resulting from a break in the tool's internal insulation. Important: Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and should be performed only by a qualified service technician. For service, we suggest you return the tool to your nearest authorized service center for repair. Always use original factory replacement parts when servicing. 25' 50' 100' 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 14 16 14 12 14 14 10 14 12 -- ELECTRICAL CONNECTION The buffer/polisher has a precision-built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only (normal household current). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If your tool does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply. **Used on 12 gauge - 20 amp circuit. WARNING: Keep the extension cord clear of the working area. Position the cord so that it will not become entangled in the rotating foam pad or caught on lumber, tools or other obstructions while you are working with a power tool. Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury. WARNING: Your buffer/polisher has a precision built electric motor. [. . . ] Note: The part number for one replacement applicator bonnet and one replacment buffing bonnet is A38RB01. Fig. 6 Page 10 MAINTENANCE WARNING: When servicing use only identical Ryobi replacement parts. However, if you do work with any of these materials, it is extremely important to clean the tool using compressed air. APPLICATION AND BUFFING BONNETS Both the application and buffing bonnets are reusable. For maximum life and performance, hand wash after use and allow them to air dry. [. . . ]
