• Do not sand on surfaces hotter than 120°F. Damage to the Dustless Sanding Block may occur.
• Turn off the shop vacuum when changing sandpaper. Alignment of sandpaper while the vacuum is operating may be difficult.
• Proper adjustment of the Flow Control Valve (e) and the Primary Adapter Regulator Ring (g) are essential for optimal performance
of the DSB System and to prevent the vacuum from stalling and possible overload. See Airflow Adjustment Guideline Table for
set-up tips.
SAFETY INFORMATION
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS BEFORE PROCEEDING.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in personal injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE is used to address practices not related to personal injury.
HEALTH AND INJURY HAZARDS!
• Dust and fine particulate matter is generated during the sanding process which can contain toxic substances such as lead, silica,
solvents and others. Breathing this dust and fine particulate matter can cause many serious respiratory health conditions.
Always use NIOSH approved respiratory protection while using this tool.
• Moving abrasive surfaces can eject metal particles, dirt and debris at high velocity. Always wear ANSI approved eye protection
when operating this tool.
• Utilizing a shop vacuum can generate excessive noise. Wear appropriate hearing protection while using a shop vacuum.
• Sanding can result in abrasion to the hands and involves working around sharp edges. Always wear protective work gloves
when sanding.
INJURY HAZARD!
• Sanding may result in your hands becoming pinched, particularly in tight areas. Take care when sanding in tight areas and always wear
protective work gloves.
• Moving around hoses and sanding in unusual positions makes tripping easy. Exercise caution when moving around the work area and
always make sure you are sure-footed.
• Repetitive motions involved in sanding can cause Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI). Take frequent breaks to avoid strain injuries.
• The shop vacuum can eject dust and fine particulate matter during operation. Breathing this dust and fine particulate matter can cause
many serious respiratory health conditions. The vacuum should always have a HEPA filter or HEPA bag installed to minimize this risk
during operation.
