DC-1200P

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.

OPERATING LOCATION

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 a shock hazard or 
decrease the life of the machine.

STATIC ELECTRICITY

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 using a grounding wire.

REGULAR CLEANING

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.

!

No list of safety guidelines can be complete. 
Every shop environment is different. Accidents 
are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or 
failure to pay attention. Use this machine with 
respect and caution to lessen the possibility of 
operator injury. If normal safety precautions are 
overlooked or ignored, serious personal injury 
may occur.

DUST COLLECTOR SAFETY

EMPTYING DUST

When emptying dust from the collection container, 
wear a respirator and safety glasses. Empty dust 
away from ignition sources and into an approved 
container.

DISCONNECT POWER 

SUPPLY

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. 

SUSPENDED DUST 

PARTICLES AND IGNITION 

SOURCES

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.

FIRE SUPPRESSION

Only operate the dust collector in locations that 

contain a fire suppression system or have a fire 

extinguisher nearby. 

IMPELLER HAZARDS

Do not place your hands or tools near the open 
inlet during operation for any reason. The powerful 
suction could easily cause accidental contact with 
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.

AVOIDING SPARKS

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
