The warnings and cautions mentioned in this user manual can not cover
all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by
the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS...cont
operation.
DO NOT
vacuum, or use the dust collector near flammable or combustible liquids,
gases, petrol or any other fuels or liquids.
DO NOT
vacuum anything that is burning, hot or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches, or hot ashes.
Always ensure the mains supply matches what is written on the specification plate of
the dust extractor (or in this manual), and that the supply is correctly earthed.
CAUTION:
Using this dust collector should help to keep airborne dust within accepta-
ble limits, you must regularly monitor airborne dust and maintain your dust collector
accordingly to avoid exceeding these limits. Each application is unique, your
maintenance schedule must therefore be tailored to your specific use of this dust
extractor. Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert, and knowing how
your dust collector works. A dust mask should be worn as a precaution, particularly
during operations that produce a high level of dust.
Do not uplift workshop floor debris if it contains stones, nails, screws etc. the extractor
is only designed for wood and wood by-products.
Be aware that wood dust is an explosive medium. Do not allow any ‘naked’ light
source to occur anywhere near the machine, this includes cigarettes, matches, etc,
and do not place the extractor near any unprotected light bulbs, or other heat
sources.
If you are not using ‘clear’ extraction hose, periodically remove the hose to check
that the inlet to the machine is not getting restricted, particularly if the operation pro-
duces large amounts chippings such as when the extractor is connected to a plan-
er or thicknesser.
WARNING!
Before connecting the dust collector to the mains supply be
sure that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on the name-
plate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater or lower than
that specified for the machine can result in serious injury to the user, as
well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not plug the tool into the
mains supply. Always turn the machine off and remove the plug from
the mains socket before making any adjustments or maintenance.
