7. Dust Extraction
7.1 The importance of dust extraction
Before the machine is started, ensure that adequate dust extraction
provisions have been installed. Dust extraction is extremely important not
only for health and safety but also for the correct upkeep of the machine.
Saw dust can cause the machine not to operate properly or even fail
completely. By keeping the machine free of large amounts of waste the
performance will be optimised.
If large amounts of MDF or toxic woods are to be cut we recommend that
there is a good ventilation system in place and that a particle mask is worn
as minimum protection.
In addition, it is recommended that air filters are used in all workshops to
ensure collection of potentially harmful airborne particles which are not
collected directly from the machine.
7.2 Record Power Extractors
Record Power offer a range of high quality dust extractors, starting at the
single motor 45 litre RSDE1 right up to the 200 litre twin motor DX5000. We
offer both drum and bag type extractors high filtration models filter down
0.5 micron providing protection from harmful fine dusts such as MDF. Chip
collectors filter down to 5 micron. All Record Power dust extractors & chip
collectors have 100mm inlets and hoses.
