● ●
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products

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, always wear
MSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator when us-
ing such tools.
