Safety 255E
Respirators for both operator and bystanders must be approved by the respirator
manufacturer for the application in question. It is essential that the respirators
protect from the tiny dust particles which cause silicosis and which may cause other
serious lung diseases. You should not use the equipment until you are sure the
respirators are working properly. This means the respirators must be checked to
make sure that it is clean, that its filter has been changed, and to otherwise make sure
the respirator will protect in the way it is meant to.
Always make sure dust has been cleaned off your boots and clothes when you leave
your shift. The smallest particles of dust are the most harmful. They may be so fine
that you cannot see them. Remember, you MUST protect yourself and bystanders
from the danger of breathing or inhaling dust.
Always follow local laws and regulations for airborne pollutants in the working
environment.
