Dust/Chip Extraction
f
Dusts from materials such as lead-containing 
coatings, some wood types, minerals and 
metal can be harmful to one’s health. Touch-
ing or breathing-in the dusts can cause aller-
gic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infec-
tions of the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are 
considered as carcinogenic, especially in 
connection with wood-treatment additives 
(chromate, wood preservative). Materials 
containing asbestos may only be worked by 
specialists.
– As far as possible, use a dust extraction 
system suitable for the material.
– Provide for good ventilation of the work-
ing place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-
class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your 
country for the materials to be worked.
