Silica Rules

[tjacobs]

We are starting to look at Hammer Drills that are OSHA complaint with the Silica collection rules. What have others bought and what are the pros and cons of the different brands ?

Thanks for any input.

Are there ones that shoot water ? I'm pretty sure only thing you can do is wear a dust mask or something similar.

Our big construction companies all buy Hilti when it comes to hammer drills but DeWalt everything else power tools.

This is what I am referring to. Other manufacturers offer similar systems. Before I invest in theses tools I would like to have opinions of others.

Well, OK, but unless it's airborne it isn't necessarily hazardous.

By coincidence, I ran across this CE course today:
