Section 14 – Transport information

This product is an electrical dust extractor (vacuum cleaner), not a chemical substance or mixture. As such, conventional Safety Data Sheet Section 14 transport classifications (ADR/RID, IMDG, IATA, etc.) typically do not apply in the same way as for hazardous chemicals.

No specific, verified transport classification data for the Mirka DEXOS 1217 M AFC has been identified in the public documentation consulted. For bulk shipments, international transport or when in doubt, follow standard rules for transporting electrical equipment and packaging, and refer to the manufacturer’s official documentation and applicable transport regulations.

Section 8 – Individual protective measures

The unit itself is designed to reduce dust exposure, but personal protective equipment (PPE) recommendations always depend on the material being processed and the working environment. Based on general good practice for powered sanding and professional dust extraction, the following measures are typically recommended, but have not been specifically verified for this exact model:

• Respiratory protection: Use appropriate respiratory protective equipment (e.g. a certified dust mask or respirator) when working with fine or hazardous dusts, especially if local exhaust is not sufficient.
• Eye protection: Wear safety glasses or goggles to protect against airborne particles and debris.
• Hand protection: Use suitable work gloves when handling tools, sharp workpieces or during cleaning and maintenance of the extractor.
• Hearing protection: Depending on the noise level from the extractor and connected power tools, hearing protection may be required.
• Protective clothing: Wear work clothing that covers exposed skin to limit dust contact, and consider disposable coveralls in high-dust environments.
• General hygiene measures: Wash hands and exposed skin after work; avoid eating, drinking or smoking in dusty areas.

These recommendations are generic and not a substitute for the official instructions, local legislation or a task-specific risk assessment.
