Protect your workers with a top-tier manhole cutter misting system

Easily use this attachment to control dust as you cut out concrete and asphalt.

After 46 years, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration has issued new standards concerning crystalline silica in order to protect workers from exposure. Crystalline silica is dangerous for workers and has been known to cause silicosis, respiratory diseases, lung cancer, and even kidney disease. 

As a result of the new silica regulations, Mr. Manhole has developed a new manhole cutter misting system for our tools, which will control silica exposure for your crews and allow you to fully comply with the new regulations.

Mr. Mister is specifically designed to comply with new safety standards

The Mr. Mister misting system is specifically designed to comply with OSHA silica control regulations. The system uses water to control dust created by cutting concrete and asphalt. The main components are the spray head, which bolts directly to the Model 40 drive motor, the flow control valve, a supply hose, a quick-connect fittings mounting bracket, and all fittings and clamps. Even a handy hose clamp crimping tool is included!

The manhole cutter misting system is designed to work with the skid loader’s supplied water tank and pump, which all manufacturers offer. The flow rate is adjustable, ranging from 0.5 gallons per minute to one gallon per minute.

With the Mr. Manhole cutter tool and Mr. Mister misting system mounted on a skid steer loader, your cutting and removing operation will fall under the category 4.8 vehicle-mounted drilling rig.

reliable manhole cutter misting system

Mr. Mister misting system follows the latest regulations, such as:

  • Ensuring that the drill bit is enclosed by a close-capture hood or shroud connected to a dust collection system.
  • Wetting the dust with a low-flow water spray at the point where the dust collector releases material.
  • Or, drilling from within an enclosed cab and using water on the drill bit to reduce dust

By misting the cutting blades with water to mitigate silica dust from spreading and enabling crews to operate from within an approved cab, the Mr. Mister manhole cutter misting system makes sure that these requirements are met.
