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.
f
Prevent dust accumulation at the work-
place.
Dusts can easily ignite.

, pull it off toward the
bottom with a twisting motion.
Before opening the dust box

plates of the filter element

To ensure optimum dust extraction, emp-
ty the dust box

in good time and clean the fil-
ter element
