Additional Safety for Dust Filters
6. ALWAYS OPERATE THE MACHINE WITH
THE FILTER IN PLACE. When the filter is
removed, the fan is exposed to the unfiltered
opening.
7. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENCING
DIFFICULTIES PERFORMING THE INTEND-
ED OPERATION, stop using the machine!
Then contact our service department or ask a
qualified expert how the operation should be
performed.
8. BE AWARE THAT CERTAIN WOODS MAY
CAUSE AN ALLERGIC reaction in people
and animals, especially when exposed to fine
dust. Make sure you know what type of wood
dust you will be exposed to in case there is a
possibility of an allergic reaction. Always wear
an ANSI approved respirator!
9. THIS MACHINE WILL NOT PROTECT
AGAINST LEAD-PAINT DUST OR
ASBESTOS FIBERS. These materials must
be collected with special equipment because
of the high hazard to human health. DO NOT
attempt to collect these materials with this
machine.
1. THIS DUST FILTER IS TO BE USED FOR
WOOD DUST ONLY. DO NOT use this
machine to filter toxic fumes or paint spray.
DO NOT use this machine to dissipate smoke
or fumes.
2. UNPLUG MACHINE BEFORE REMOVING
FILTER. Removing the filter exposes the fan
blade, which may cause serious injury if con-
tacted while the machine is connected to its
power source.
3. PROBLEMS CONCERNED WITH ANY
MOVING PARTS or accessories must be
investigated and corrected with the power
disconnected and after everything has come
to a complete stop.
4. SUSPENDED DUST PARTICLES IN CON-
JUNCTION WITH AN IGNITION SOURCE,
may cause an explosion. Do not operate this
machine in areas where explosion risks would
be high if dust were dispersed into the area.
Areas of high risk include, but are not limited
to, areas near pilot lights or open flames.
5. AVOID COLLECTING ANY MATERIAL THAT
IS BURNING OR SMOKING, this includes
matches, cigarettes, and hot ashes.
Operations that gener-
ate large amounts of any
kind of dust may warrant
the use of a respirator
even though the air filter
is running. The dust filter
is not a substitute for a
respirator!
