Use
only
Dremel
recommended
accessories.
Other accessories may not fit
properly and lead to injury.
Do not use standard flat wheels for face
grinding.
Side forces applied to these
wheels may cause them to shatter or burst.
Do not attempt to cut large stock or
sheets of metal as this machine is not
designed to be a dedicated cut-off
machine.
Do not collect dust (wood or metal) in
ordinary household vacuum cleaner.
Lint
and other fibers in household vacuums are
easily combustible and may start a fire.
Do not vacuum and collect metal
shavings/dust with wood sawdust.
Metal
shavings/dust becomes very hot during
abrasive cutting and will ignite wood dust.
When connecting tool to dust collection
and extraction systems, be sure these are
connected and used according to tool and
vacuum instructions.
Proper use of dust
collection can reduce dust related hazards.
When using tool with dust collection and
extraction systems, empty the dust
container before beginning work,
frequently during work, after completion
of work, and before storing the tool.
Be
extremely careful of dust disposal, materials
in fine particle form may be explosive.
Do not throw dust on an open fire.
Fine
dust particles may burn explosively.
When performing sanding and surface
preparation operations with tool
connected to a dust collection and
extraction system be aware of the
materials creating the dust.
Combustion
from mixture of varnishes, lacquers,
polyurethane, oil or water with dust particles
can occur if there is a static discharge,
electric spark, or excessive heat causing a
fire in the dust collection and extraction
system.
Do not use dust extraction for operations
that include burning, smoking or
smoldering items like hot ashes or
sparks.
Fire inside the vacuum tank or bag
may occur. Dust may smolder and set
vacuum on fire long after work is completed.
Do not use dust extraction with explosive
dusts, varnish, polyurethane coatings,
cleaners, or oil-based paints.
Electric
motors create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
Do not use dust extraction when working
on metal.
Swarf from sanding, grinding or
cutting metal may be hot and may spark
which may melt plastic adaptors, vacuum
hoses, and may cause a fire inside the
vacuum tank or bag.
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement
and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber.
Your 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
work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
