HEALTH ADVICE
WARNING:
When using this machine, dust
particles may be produced. In some instances,
depending on the materials you are working
with, this dust can be particularly harmful.
If you suspect that paint on the surface of
material you wish to cut contains lead, seek
professional advice. Lead based paints should
only be removed by a professional and you
should not attempt to remove it yourself.
Once the dust has been deposited on surfaces,
hand to mouth contact can result in the
ingestion of lead.
Exposure to even low levels of lead can
cause irreversible brain and nervous system
damage. The young and unborn children are
particularly vulnerable. You are advised to
consider the risks associated with the materials
you are working with and to reduce the risk
of exposure. As some materials can produce
dust that may be hazardous to your health,
we recommend the use of an approved face
mask with replaceable filters when using
this machine.
You should always:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment,
such as dust masks that are specially
designed to filter microscopic particles.
