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!
