one’s health. Touching or breathing-in the dusts can cause 
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of 
the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are considered 
as carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treat-
ment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials 
containing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.

– As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suita-

ble for the material.

– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.

Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the 
materials to be worked.

To ensure optimum dust extraction, pay attention that the 
punched holes in the sanding sheet match with the holes in 
the sanding plate.

Sanding Sheets with Velcro Backing (see figure C)

, free the Velcro back-

ing of the sanding plate
