FOR YOUR SAFETY AND WELL BEING
DRY GRINDING
DO NOT operate gasoline/propane
powered equipment without adequate
ventilation. Carbon monoxide is an
invisible, oderless gas that can kill.
Dry Grinding:
Dry Grinding creates a large volume of airborne dust. For health reasons, the
operator should wear an applicable respirator. The dust may contain chemicals
known to cause serious illnesses, including Silicosis a fatal disease of the lungs.
Check the chemical properties of the material to be removed and follow all
EPA/OSHA regulations.
• An Industrial vacuum, capable of handling high volume of fine dust, such as the VAC-
200 (Figure 5), should be used when dry grinding with this machine. If the material
being used is hazardous or contains Silica - the vacuum unit should be capable of
removing Respirable Silica and hazardous particles of less than 3 microns and if
necessary, have the capability to be equipped with a HEPA filter.
• Most standard drum type units use a paper bag filter. The dust created during
grinding is extremely fine and will clog the filter bag of these units and eventually
damage the vacuums motor. In addition, damage to the CPM-4-8-10 engine could
occur.
• The collected debris and filters should be disposed of according to procedures that
comply with current EPA/OSHA standards.
