INTENDED USE.­ This­ dust­ collector­ is­ only­
intended­for­collecting­wood­dust­and­chips­from­
woodworking­ machines.­ DO­ NOT­ use­ this­ dust­
collector­ to­ collect­ metal,­ dirt,­ pebbles,­ drywall,­
asbestos,­ lead­ paint,­ silica,­ liquids,­ aerosols,­ or­
any­flammable,­combustible,­or­hazardous­materi-
als.
hazarDoUS DUST. Dust­ created­ while­ using­
machinery­ may­ cause­ cancer,­ birth­ defects,­ or­
long-term­ respiratory­ damage.­ Be­ aware­ of­ dust­
hazards­associated­with­each­workpiece­material,­
and­always­wear­a­NIOSH-approved­respirator­to­
reduce­your­risk.
DUST aLLErGIES.­ Dust­ from­ certain­ woods­
may­cause­an­allergic­reaction­in­people­and­ani-
mals.­Make­sure­you­know­what­type­of­wood­dust­
you­will­be­exposed­to­in­case­there­is­a­possibility­
of­an­allergic­reaction.
WEar rESPIraTor.­ Fine­ dust­ that­ is­ too­
small­to­be­caught­in­the­filter­ will­be­blown­into­
the­ ambient­ air­ during­ operation.­ Always­ wear­ a­
NIOSH­approved­respirator­during­operation­and­
for­a­short­time­after­to­reduce­your­risk­of­perma-
nent­respiratory­damage.
EMPTYING DUST.­When­emptying­dust­from­the­
collection­container,­wear­a­respirator­and­safety­
glasses.­ Empty­ dust­ away­ from­ ignition­ sources­
and­into­an­approved­container.
DISCoNNECTING PoWEr SUPPLY.­ Turn­ the­
switch­
OFF,­ disconnect­ the­ dust­ collector­ from­
the­power­supply,­and­allow­the­impeller­to­come­
to­ a­ complete­ stop­ before­ leaving­ the­ machine­
unattended­or­doing­any­service,­cleaning,­main-
tenance,­or­adjustments.
rEGULar CLEaNING.­ Regularly­ check/empty­
the­ collection­ bags­ or­ drum­ to­ avoid­ the­ buildup­
of­fine­dust­that­can­increase­the­risk­of­fire.­Make­
sure­to­regularly­clean­the­surrounding­area­where­
the­machine­is­operated—excessive­dust­buildup­
on­ overhead­ lights,­ heaters,­ electrical­ panels,­ or­
other­heat­sources­will­increase­the­risk­of­fire.
SUSPENDED DUST ParTICLES aND IGNITIoN
SoUrCES.­DO­NOT­operate­the­dust­collector­in­
areas­were­explosion­risks­are­high.­Areas­of­high­
risk­include,­but­are­not­limited­to,­areas­near­pilot­
lights,­open­flames,­or­other­ignition­sources.
FIrE SUPPrESSIoN.­Only­operate­the­dust­col-
lector­in­locations­that­contain­a­fire­suppression­
system­or­have­a­fire­extinguisher­nearby.
IMPELLEr hazarDS.­ DO­ NOT­ place­ your­
hands­or­tools­near­the­open­inlet­during­operation­
for­any­reason.­The­powerful­suction­could­easily­
cause­accidental­contact­with­the­impeller­which­
will­ cause­ serious­ personal­ injury­ or­ damage­ to­
the­machine.­Always­keep­small­animals­and­chil-
dren­away­from­open­dust­collection­inlets.
aVoIDING SParKS.­ DO­ NOT­ allow­ steel­ or­
rocks­ to­ strike­ the­ impeller—this­ may­ produce­
sparks.­ Sparks­ can­ smolder­ in­ wood­ dust­ for­ a­
long­time­before­a­fire­is­detected.­If­you­acciden-
tally­cut­into­wood­containing­tramp­metal­(nails,­
staples,­ spikes,­ etc.),­ immediately­ turn­
OFF­ the­
dust­collector,­disconnect­it­from­power,­and­wait­
for­ the­ impeller­ to­ stop—then­ empty­ the­ collec-
tion­ container­ into­ an­ approved­ airtight­ metal­
container.
oPEraTING LoCaTIoN.­ To­ reduce­ respira-
tory­ exposure­ to­ fine­ dust,­ locate­ permanently­
installed­ dust­ collectors­ away­ from­ the­ working­
area,­or­in­another­room­that­is­equipped­with­a­
smoke­detector.­DO­NOT­operate­the­dust­collec-
tor­ in­ rainy­ or­ wet­ locations—exposure­ to­ water­
may­create­an­shock­hazard­or­decrease­the­life­
of­the­machine.
STaTIC ELECTrICITY.­Plastic­dust­lines­gener-
ate­high­amounts­of­static­electricity­as­dust­chips­­
pass­through­them.­Although­rare,­sparks­caused­
by­ static­ electricity­ can­ cause­ explosions­ or­ fire.­
To­ reduce­ this­ risk,­ make­ sure­ all­ dust­ lines­ are­
thoroughly­grounded­by­using­a­grounding­wire.
