Frequently asked questions
Are stilts covered?
Yes, with the conditions under which they may be used, the floor condition required, and the tasks for which a podium is the safer choice.
What controls the sanding dust?
On-tool extraction or a vacuum sander first, ventilation second, and respiratory protection as the backup.
