It is your responsibility to follow all applicable ANSI, OSHA, UL, CSA, National & Local Fire Codes, and other 
regulatory guidelines covering the safe use of equipment that extracts fumes, collects dusts, and exhausts filtered 
air either indoors or outdoors.  

 

Before use, inspect the unit for damage and verify it is working properly.

Do not modify or repair the unit with parts or accessories not supplied by the manufacturer. 

 

Consult filter manufacturer’s instructions for filter use and reuse, including instructions for cleaning. 

1.2 Fume Extraction Hazards 

 

Breathing smoke, fumes, or dusts produced in applications such as welding, cutting, grinding, painting, deburring 
are hazardous to user’s health.  Proper ventilation or use of well maintained fume extraction and/or dust collection

Dusts from many welding, cutting, grinding, painting, or deburring applications can be combustible.   

 

Do not use or install equipment where any potential for combustible fumes or dusts are present, until a qualified 
person has indicated it is safe to do so. 

 

Never use or install equipment where the potential for combustible fumes or dusts are present without a 
fire/explosion protection system.
