Additional Dust Collector Safety
Power Disconnect.
Turn machine OFF,
disconnect from power supply, and
allow impeller to completely stop before
leaving machine unattended, or doing any
maintenance or service.
Regular Cleaning.
To reduce risk of starting
a fire, regularly check/empty collection
bags or drum to avoid buildup of fine dust,
which can increase risk of fire. Regularly
clean surrounding area where machine
is operated—excessive dust buildup on
overhead lights, heaters, electrical panels, or
other heat sources will increase risk of fire.
Suspended Dust Particles.
To reduce risk of
death or injury caused by explosions or fires,
DO NOT operate in areas where these risks
are high, including spaces near pilot lights,
open flames, or other ignition sources.
Avoiding Sparks.
To reduce risk of fire, avoid
collecting any metal objects or stones. These
can possibly produce sparks when they
strike impeller, which can smolder in wood
dust for a long time before a fire is detected.
If you accidentally cut into wood containing
metal, immediately turn OFF dust collector,
disconnect from power, and wait for impeller
to stop. Then empty bag or drum into
approved airtight metal container.
Fire Suppression.
Only operate dust collector
in locations that contain fire suppression
system or have fire extinguisher nearby.
Static Electricity.
To reduce risk of fire or
explosions caused by sparks from static
electricity, ground all ducting using
grounding wire.
Dust Allergies.
Dust from certain woods will
cause an allergic reaction. Make sure you
know what type of wood dust you will be
exposed to in case of an allergic reaction.
Intended Use.
Collecting the wrong materials
can result in serious inhalation hazards, fire,
explosions, or machine damage. This machine
is ONLY designed to collect wood dust and
chips from woodworking machines. DO NOT
use it to collect silica, polyurethane, toxic
fumes, metal dust or shavings, lead paint,
drywall, asbestos, biohazards, explosive dusts,
flammable or combustible liquids or fumes,
nor burning or smoking material.
Wear a Respirator.
Fine dust that is too small to
be caught in filter will be blown into ambient
air. Always wear a NIOSH-approved
respirator during operation and for a short
time after to reduce your risk of permanent
respiratory damage. Never collect dust from
any hazardous material.
Impeller Hazards.
To reduce risk of entanglement
or contact with impeller, DO NOT place hands,
hair, clothing, or tools in or near open dust
collection inlet during operation, and keep
small animals and children away. The powerful
suction could easily pull them into impeller.
Hazardous Dust.
Dust exposure created while
using machinery may cause cancer, birth
defects, or long-term respiratory damage.
Be aware of dust hazards associated with
each workpiece material, and always wear a
NIOSH-approved respirator.
Emptying Dust.
When emptying bag or drum,
wear respirator and safety glasses. Empty
dust away from ignition sources and into
approved container.
Operating Location.
To reduce respiratory
exposure to fine dust, locate permanently
installed dust collectors away from working
area or in another room. DO NOT place dust
collector where it can be exposed to rain or
moisture, which creates a shock hazard and
will reduce life of machine.
Long-term respiratory damage can occur from using dust collectors without proper use of a
respirator. Fire or explosions can result in smoke inhalation, serious burns, or death—if machine
is used to collect incorrect materials, is operated near potential explosion sources, or ducting is
improperly grounded. Entanglement, amputation, or death can occur if hair, clothing, or fi ngers
are pulled into the inlet. To reduce the risk of these hazards, operator and bystanders MUST
completely heed the hazards and warnings below.
