Asbestos-containing material may only be
machined by specialists.
f Wherever possible, use a dust extractor
suitable for the material you are working on
(e.g. a special MAKITA dust extractor).
f Ensure the workplace is properly ventilated.
f We recommend wearing a face mask
respirator with filter class P2 or P3 (to
EN 149:2001).
Observe the relevant regulations in your country
for the materials to be machined.
