When you drill and cut construction elements and road surfaces, these give off dust which is harmful to health. You should ideally avoid inhaling this – or, in a worst-case scenario, restrict your inhalation of it as far as possible.

Dust can be kept to a minimum by:

• Better planning so that drilling is carried out on as few occasions as possible
• Use tools that create less dust
• Always use respiratory protection
• When working for more than three hours, use respiratory protection with an air supply
• When working for less than three hours, use filtering respiratory protection
• Use a P2 filter as a minimum.
• Always read the instructions for use supplied
