No list of safety guidelines can be complete.
Every shop environment is different. Always
consider safety first, as it applies to your
individual working conditions. Use this and
other machinery with caution and respect.
Failure to do so could result in serious per-
sonal injury, damage to equipment or poor
work results.
Additional Safety for Double Air Filters
6. ALWAYS OPERATE THE MACHINE WITH
THE FILTER IN PLACE. When the filter is
removed, the impeller is exposed to the unfil-
tered opening.
7. WHEN EMPTYING DUST FROM THE COL-
LECTION BAGS, wear a respirator and
safety glasses. Empty dust into an approved
container and dispose of properly.
8. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC-
ING DIFFICULTIES PERFORMING THE
INTENDED OPERATION, stop using the
machine! Then contact our service depart-
ment or ask a qualified expert how the opera-
tion should be performed.
9. 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!
10. 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 DOUBLE AIR FILTER IS TO BE
USED FOR WOOD DUST COLLECTION
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 filters exposes the
fan blade, which may cause serious injury if
contacted 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 double air
filter is not a substitute
for a respirator!
