Safe operation and good practice use of your BK-75 dust collection
system
April 2001
The BK-75 dust collection system is designed to accept one dust inlet. Dust is drawn into the BK-75 by
its onboard air suction system. The air stream and dust is passed through a filter bank where a significant
amount of the dust is removed from the air stream. The air is then ducted out of the BK-75. The following
minimum safe practices should be read, understood, and practiced by all users of the BK-75, and those
persons who maintain the BK-75, or are present in the BK-
75 work area.
To minimize fire, explosion, health and other risks to personnel and property:
Do not use your BK-75 to collect materials prone to explosion unless it has been specifically
modified to be “explosion proof”.
Do not draw debris from different alloys into the BK-75 system.
Do not use water or other electrically conductive fluid in your BK-75 unless it has been
specifically modified for wet operation.
Do not mix wood, plastic, paper, or other flammable material debris with metal or other
high temperature dust/debris.
Do use a spark-arresting device if your BK-75 will be used to collect debris from materials
that spark or otherwise create ignition level debris when worked.
Do consult with the appropriate authorities to be certain that your BK-75 installation and
its intended use comply with local, state, and federal codes.
Do use approved inhalation protective devices in conjunction with the BK-75.
Do use approved protective eye, face, hand, and body protection when grinding, polishing,
or otherwise creating dust and debris that you intend the BK-75 collect.
Do disconnect all power to the BK-75 (and any equipment connected to it) prior to
performing adjustments, maintenance, or other activity that involves opening any cover on
the BK-75.
Do read, understand, and abide by the operating and maintenance instructions provided for
the BK-75.
Do use specified replacement parts and filters.
Do maintain the BK-75 in specification compliant condition.
