Yes I agree and always wear a real respirator when using it. Not a white "wood-working style mask, but a real one with 2 can filters, safety glasses and gloves. Still - it's real nice not to "wear" the rouge .

I also wear a respirator when using my Angle Grinder, Belt Sander and most dust making related tools. Once in a while I mess up and forget, but I am pretty good about it.

A few years back I also bought a full face shield as I do not want an "ugly face" from flying metal or flying Angle Grinding wheels.
