metal filings, dust or wood chips. Goggles are acceptable in other situations. Wear a clean
dust mask if the work creates a lot of fine or coarse dust. When operating for extended periods
of time, use approved ear protection. Safety goggles and ear protectors are available from
Harbor Freight Tools.
