Specific Safety Rules for Dust Extractors
►
The dust extractor uses a 3-prong grounded plug. Never
connect the dust extractor to an ungrounded electrical outlet.
Never defeat or bypass the ground prong. Do not use the
dust extractor if the ground prong is broken or missing.
►
Take care when using the dust extractor on stairs or elevated
work areas.
►
Do not vacuum toxic, carcinogenic, combustible or other
hazardous materials such as asbestos, arsenic, barium, beryl-
lium, lead, pesticides or other health endangering materials.
►
Do not pick up anything that is burning, smoldering, or smok-
ing, such as cigarettes, matches or hot ashes.
►
Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids, such
as gasoline, or use in areas where they may be present.
►
Take care when disposing of fine sanding dust. Fine particle
dust may become explosive. Do not throw sanding dust on an
open flame.
Respiratory Exposure Safety Warnings
Substantial or repeated inhalation of dust and other airborne
contaminants, in particular those with a smaller particle size,
may cause respiratory or other illnesses. Various dusts created
by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construc-
tion activities contain chemicals or substances known (to the
State of California and others) to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals/
substances are: lead from lead-based paints; crystalline silica
from bricks, cement, and other masonry products; arsenic and
chromium from chemically-treated lumber; and some wood
dusts, especially from hardwoods, but also from some soft-
woods such as Western Red Cedar.
The risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often
you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area and use a properly
functioning dust extraction system. When the inhalation of
dust cannot be substantially controlled, i.e., kept at or near the
ambient (background) level, the operator and any bystanders
should wear a respirator approved by NIOSH for the type of
dust encountered.
