@EK<E;<;LJ<. This dust collector is only
intended for collecting wood dust and chips
from woodworking machines. DO NOT use this
dust collector to collect metal, dirt, pebbles,
drywall, asbestos, lead paint, silica, liquids,
aerosols, or any flammable, combustible, or
hazardous materials.
?8Q8I;FLJ;LJK% Dust created while using
machinery may cause cancer, birth defects,
or long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of
dust hazards associated with each workpiece
material, and always wear a NIOSH-approved
respirator to reduce your risk.
;LJK8CC<I>@<J. Dust from certain woods
may cause an allergic reaction in people and
animals. Make sure you know what type of
wood dust you will be exposed to in case
there is a possibility of an allergic reaction.
N<8II<JG@I8KFI% Fine dust that is too small
to be caught in the filter will be blown into
the ambient air during operation. Always wear
a NIOSH approved respirator during operation
and for a short time after to reduce your risk
of permanent respiratory damage.
<DGKP@E>;LJK% When emptying dust from the
collection container, wear a respirator and
safety glasses. Empty dust away from ignition
sources and into an approved container.
;@J:FEE<:K@E>GFN<IJLGGCP% Turn the
switch OFF, disconnect the dust collector from
the power supply, and allow the impeller to
come to a complete stop before leaving the
machine unattended or doing any service,
cleaning, maintenance, or adjustments.
I<>LC8I:C<8E@E>% Regularly check/empty
the collection bags or drum to avoid the
buildup of fine dust that can increase the
risk of fire. Make sure to regularly clean
the surrounding area where the machine is
operated—excessive dust buildup on overhead
lights, heaters, electrical panels, or other
heat sources will increase the risk of fire.
JLJG<E;<;;LJKG8IK@:C<J8E;@>E@K@FE
JFLI:<J% DO NOT operate the dust collector
in areas where explosion risks are high. Areas
of high risk include, but are not limited to,
areas near pilot lights, open flames, or other
ignition sources.
=@I<JLGGI<JJ@FE% Only operate dust collector
in locations that contain a fire suppression
system or have a fire extinguisher nearby.
@DG<CC<I?8Q8I;J% DO NOT place your hands
or tools near the open inlet during operation
for any reason. The powerful suction could
easily pull them into the impeller, which
will cause serious personal injury or damage
to the machine. Always keep small animals
and children away from open dust collection
inlets.
8MF@;@E>JG8IBJ% DO NOT allow steel or rocks
to strike the impeller—this may produce
sparks. Sparks can smolder in wood dust
for a long time before a fire is detected. If
you accidentally cut into wood containing
tramp metal (nails, staples, spikes, etc.),
immediately turn OFF the dust collector,
disconnect it from power, and wait for the
impeller to stop—then empty the collection
container into an approved airtight metal
container.
FG<I8K@E>CF:8K@FE. To reduce respiratory
exposure to fine dust, locate permanently
installed dust collectors away from the
working area, or in another room that is
equipped with a smoke detector. DO NOT
operate the dust collector in rainy or wet
locations—exposure to water may create
an shock hazard or decrease the life of the
machine.
JK8K@:<C<:KI@:@KP% Plastic dust lines generate
high amounts of static electricity as dust
chips pass through them. Although rare,
sparks caused by static electricity can cause
explosions or fire. To reduce this risk, make
sure all dust lines are thoroughly grounded by
usin
a
roundin
wire.
