outdoors in a well ventilated area.
Operate it under good visibility and
daylight conditions only. Work carefully.

Inhalation of certain dusts, especially
organic dusts such as mold or pollen,
can cause susceptible persons to have
an allergic or asthmatic reaction.
Substantial or repeated inhalation of
dust and other airborne contaminants, in
particular those with a smaller particle
size, may cause respiratory or other
illnesses. Control dust at the source
where possible. Use good work
practices, such as operating the unit so
that the wind or operating process
directs any dust raised by the power tool
away from the operator. Follow the
recommendations of EPA/OSHA/
NIOSH and occupational and trade
associations with respect to dust

fatal injury/illness from inhaling toxic
fumes, never run the machine indoors or
in poorly ventilated locations.

operator and any bystanders should
wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/
