Hazards caused by dust and vapours

■ The dusts and vapours produced by using the machines for screw
connections can be hazardous to health (e .g . cause cancer, birth
defects, asthma and/or dermatitis); it is essential to carry out a risk
assessment in respect of these risks and to implement
corresponding regulatory mechanisms .
■ The risk assessment should include the dust caused by using the
machine and any existing dust that may be raised at the same
time .
■ The compressed air tool is to be operated and maintained in
accordance with the recommendations contained in this manual
to keep the release of dust and vapours to a minimum .
■ The exhaust air should be extracted so that the minimum amount
of dust is raised in an already dusty environment .
■ If dusts or vapours are created, the main priority must be to control
these at the site of their release .
■ All components of the compressed air tool or accessories
intended for collecting, extracting or suppressing airborne dust or
vapours or should be used and serviced properly in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions .
■ Consumables/tools should be selected, maintained and replaced
in accordance with the recommendations in this guide in order to
avoid unnecessary intensification of dust or vapour production .
■ Use a dust mask as per the instructions provided by your
employer or as required by health and safety regulations .
■ Working with certain materials can lead to emissions of dust and
vapours that are potentially explosive .
