equipment such as breathing protection, protective gloves, special overalls and safe-
ty helmet should be worn as necessary. When assessing whether breathing protec-
tion or a full face mask (respirator) should be worn, the hazardous characteristics of
the material to be cut or ground as well as any coatings applied to it should be taken
into account. In cases of doubt, full protective equipment should be worn. Use an
industrial vacuum cleaner, with an officially approved protection classification, which
complies with the local dust control regulations.
