ing. This static electricity may discharge sud‐
denly with a spark. To reduce the risk of per‐
sonal injury following static discharge:
– Never operate the shredder vac in a loca‐
tion where combustible gases, liquids,
vapors, dusts or other combustible materi‐
als and substances are present.
■ Sparks generated from operation of the shred‐
der vac may be capable of igniting combusti‐
ble gases, liquids, vapors, dusts or other com‐
bustible materials and substances. To reduce
the risk of fire and explosion:
– Never operate the shredder vac in a loca‐
tion where combustible gases, liquids,
vapors, dusts or other combustible materi‐
als and substances are present.
– Read and follow recommendations issued
by government authorities (e.g., OSHA)
for identifying and avoiding the hazards of
combustible gases, liquids, vapors, dusts
or other combustible materials and sub‐
stances.
■ Use of this shredder vac can generate dust
and other substances containing chemicals
known to cause respiratory problems, cancer,
birth defects and other reproductive harm.
– Consult governmental agencies such as
EPA, OSHA, CARB and NIOSH and other
authoritative sources on hazardous mate‐
rials if you are unfamiliar with the risks
associated with the particular substances
with which you are working.
■ Inhalation of certain dusts, especially organic
dusts such as mold or pollen, can cause sus‐
ceptible persons to have an allergic or asth‐
matic reaction. Substantial or repeated inhala‐
tion of dust or other airborne contaminants,
especially those with a smaller particle size,
may cause respiratory or other illnesses.
– Control dust at the source where possible.
– To the extent possible, operate the shred‐
der vac so that the wind or operating proc‐
ess directs any dust, mist or other particu‐
late matter raised by the shredder vac
away from the operator.
– When respirable dust or other particulate
matter cannot be kept at or near back‐
ground levels, always wear a respirator
that is approved by NIOSH and rated for
worksite-specific conditions. Follow the
recommendations of governmental
authorities (e.g., OSHA/NIOSH) and occu‐
