safety must be rectified immediately.
The product’s moving parts always constitute
a risk (e.g. cutting, clamping or gripping points).
The product is not intended for the extrac-
tion of non-conductive dust with an MIE
(Minimum Ignition Energy) of less than 4 mJ.
The product must not be used in environ-
ments containing substances that can affect
or react with the materials from which it is
made. See
10.1 Technical data .
The earth cable must be connected to the
appropriate earthing point.
The earth cable resistance must not exceed
10 Ω.
For maintenance work where contact with
dust occurs, personal protective equipment
such as safety glasses, respiratory protection
and safety gloves must be worn.
The product should only be used by personnel
with good knowledge of the product and its
area of use.

2 Safety
2.1 General
This product is safe to use and designed to minimize
any potential risks. Even so, if the product is not used
correctly or as intended, it may be hazardous to the
user or cause damage to the product. The user should
therefore be informed and trained to handle the pro-
duct’s safety features.
2.2 Warning levels (on product)
Safety signs on Fumex products make use of colour
codes and signal words in accordance with ISO 3864-2.
Red (DANGER) : used to indicate
an imminently dangerous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in
death or serious personal injury.
Orange (WARNING) : used to indicate
a potentially dangerous situation
which, if not avoided, may result in
death or serious personal injury.
Yellow (CAUTION) : used to indicate a
potentially dangerous situation which,
if not avoided, may result in moderate
or minor personal injury.
2.3 Safety signs
Refer to 3.2 Labels and safety signs.
2.4 Protective equipment
As the extraction arm is earthed, electrostatic discharge
can be experienced when touching the product.
People can become electrostatically charged either
directly (friction from clothes or shoes) or by induc-
tion (proximity to highly charged objects). Electrostatic
charges can be produced when a person walks across a
floor with a high resistance. This can usually be preven-
ted with the use of floor coverings with a resistance to
earth of less than 100 MΩ and the use of electrostatic
dissipative shoes.
