Additional Safety for Air Filters

1.FILTER USE. This filter unit is only designed to remove very fine wood particles from the air. DO NOT use this machine to filter or collect liquids (especially flammables), metal shavings, lead paint, or asbestos. DO NOT use this machine to dissipate smoke, fumes, or when spraying paint.

2.FILTER REMOVAL. Unplug machine before removing filter. Removing primary fil- ter exposes the impeller, which may cause serious injury during contact if the machine is connected to the power source.

3.PROBLEMS WITH MOVING PARTS.

Problems concerned with moving parts or accessories must be investigated and cor- rected with the power disconnected and after the fan blade come to a complete stop.

4.EXPLOSION RISK. Suspended dust par- ticles in conjunction with an ignition source may cause an explosion. Do not operate this machine in areas where explosion risks would be high if dust were dispersed into the area. Areas of high risk include, but are not limited to, areas near pilot lights or open flames.

5.BURNING OR SMOKING MATERIAL. Avoid collecting any material that is burning

or smoking, including matches, cigarettes, and hot ashes.

6.MACHINE OPERATION. Always operate

the machine with the filter in place. When the primary filter is removed, the impeller is exposed to the unfiltered opening.

7.FILTER CLEANING AND REPLACEMENT. Wear a respirator and safety glasses when changing or replacing filters. Empty dust into an approved container and dispose of properly.

8.OPERATING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties perform- ing the intended operation, stop using the machine! Then contact our service depart- ment or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be performed.

9.ALLERGIC REACTIONS. Be aware that

certain woods may cause an allergic reac- tion in people and animals, especially when exposed to fine dust. Make sure you know what type of wood dust you will be exposed to in case there is a possibility of an allergic reaction. Always wear an ANSI approved respirator!

10.LEAD-PAINT DUST OR ASBESTOS FIBERS. This machine will not protect against lead-paint dust or asbestos fibers. These materials must be collected with spe- cial equipment due to high hazard to human health. DO NOT attempt to collect these materials with this machine.

Like all machines there is danger associ- ated with the Model G0573. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this machine with respect and caution to lessen the pos- sibility of operator injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, seri- ous personal injury may occur.

No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to do so could result in serious per- sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor work results.
