system start-up Information (Continued)
15. DO NOT locate or operate the system in moist, wet, poorly lit, or cluttered environments. Operating in these areas can
create shock hazards, increase the risks of accidents and injury, and/or lower the operating lifespan of the dust collector.
16. DO NOT install in classified hazardous atmospheres without an enclosure rated for the application. System location
must account for wind, seismic zone, and other load conditions. Codes may regulate acceptable locations for installing
dust collectors. Consult with the appropriate authorities having jurisdiction to ensure compliance with all national and
local codes regarding dust collector installation. Equipment must be anchored in a manner consistent with local code
requirements. Anchors must be sufficient to support dead, live, seismic, and other anticipated loads. Consult a qualified
engineer for final selection of anchorage.
17. ENSURE exhaust air is properly vented. It should NOT be vented into a wall, a ceiling, or a concealed space of a building.
Personal injury, death, and/or property damage can result from material discharge during venting. The risk of personal
injury and/or property damage can be minimized or avoided by locating vented equipment outside buildings and away
from normally occupied areas. If exhaust air is vented outside, you must provide make up / return air. Flue gases (carbon
monoxide) can be drawn into the shop from furnaces, water heaters, or other appliances.
18. INSPECT and MAINTAIN REGULARLY. Keep the dust collector in proper working order. A machine that isn't properly
maintained, not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped in water could malfunction
leading to serious personal injury or death!
19. AVOID CORD DAMAGE. DO NOT pull or carry by cord. DO NOT use cord as handle. DO NOT unplug by pulling on
cord. To unplug, grab the plug, NOT the cord. DO NOT close door on cord or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. DO
NOT run dust collector over cord. DO NOT handle cord/plug with wet hands. Keep cord away from heated surfaces. If the
supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to
avoid a hazard.
20. ALWAYS check for damaged parts. A part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Immediately repair or replace damaged or mis-adjusted parts before operating
machine.
21. DO NOT put any object in openings. DO NOT use with any opening blocked. (Except when pulsing - See Maintenance
Section for more information.)
22. ALWAYS wear a NIOSH approved respirator when emptying dust bins and during operation. Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects
or other long-term respiratory damage.
23. ALWAYS keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body AWAY from openings and moving parts.
24. ALWAYS wear ANSI-approved safety glasses or a face shield when operating or observing machinery and when emptying
dust bin.
25. ALWAYS wear hearing protection during extended periods of operation.
