WARNING: Breathing asbestos dust is
dangerous and can cause severe or fatal
illness, respiratory illness or cancer. The
use and disposal of asbestos-containing
products have been strictly regulated by OSHA
and the Environmental Protection Agency If
you have any reason to believe that you might
be blowing or otherwise disturbing asbestos,
immediately contact EPA, your employer or a
local OSHA representative
WARNING: Dust with silica in its
composition may contain crystalline silica.
Silica is a basic component of sand, quartz,
brick, clay, granite and numerous other
minerals and rocks including masonry
and concrete products. Repeated and/
or substantial inhalation of airborne
crystalline silica can cause serious or fatal
respiratory disease including silicosis. In
addition, the state of California and some
other authorities have listed respirable
crystalline silica as a substance known
to cause cancer. When encountering such
materials, always follow the respiratory
precautions approved by NIOSH/MSHA for the
type of dust encountered
CAUTION: Objects in the blower fan
can damage the blower or be thrown from
the nozzle. Do not insert anything into the air
intake
CAUTION: 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 or other airborne contaminants, in
particular those with a smaller particle
size, may cause respiratory or other
illnesses. Control dust at the source where
possible Operate the unit so that the wind
or blower air directs any dust away from the
operator Follow the recommendations of
EPA/OSHA/NIOSH and occupational and trade
associations with respect to dust ("particulate
matter") When the inhalation of dust cannot
be kept at or near the background level, the
operator and any bystanders should wear a
respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for the
type of dust encountered
