WARNING!
Do not use a Cabinet Blaster until you have read this manual and you understand its contents and
warnings. These warnings are included for the health and safety of the operator and those in the
immediate vicinity. Keep this manual for future reference.
Dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities may
contain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm and respiratory
illnesses. Some examples of the chemicals include:
- Lead from lead based paints
- Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products
- Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: Work in a ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Abrasive blasting produces harmful dust. Everyone in the blasting area must wear a properly fitted
and properly maintained NIOSH approved air supplied respirator.
SILICOSIS AND OTHER DUST WARNINGS:
Breathing dust from silica sand may cause silicosis, a fatal lung disease. Breathing dust during
blasting operations may also cause asbestosis and/or other serious or fatal diseases. A
NIOSH-approved, well maintained air supplied abrasive blasting respirator must be used by anyone
blasting, anyone handling or using media containing toxic substances or media with more than
point one percent (.001) free crystalline silica and anyone in the area of the dust. Harmful dust can
remain suspended in the air for long periods of time after blasting has ceased, causing serious
injury or death.
Before removing respirator, use an air monitoring instrument to determine if atmosphere is safe to
breathe. Contact local OSHA or NIOSH office to determine the proper respirator for your particular
application.
Air supplied respirators do not remove or protect against carbon monoxide (CO) or any other toxic
gas. Use a carbon monoxide removal device and monitoring device with the respirator to ensure
grade D quality air. Follow all applicable OSHA standards and OSHA regulation 1910.134 (d).
Do not use this equipment in any area that might be considered hazardous or where flammable
gases or liquids are present. Failure to do so may cause an explosion resulting in serious injury.
