Dust Extraction (Fig. A, U)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn
tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making
any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or
accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

WARNING: Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered
carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment additives.
• Always use dust extraction.
• Provide for good ventilation of the work space.
• It is recommended to wear an appropriate respirator.

CAUTION: Never operate this saw for cutting wood unless the
dust bag or D WALT dust extractor is in place. Wood dust may
e
create a breathing hazard.

CAUTION: Check and clean the dust bag each time after using.

WARNING: When sawing aluminium, remove the dust bag, or
disconnect the dust extractor to avoid the risk of fire.
Your mitre saw has a built-in dust port
either a dust bag (33 mm nozzles) or direct attachment to the D
AirLock (DWV9000-XJ) 34 .
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the materials to
be worked.
To Attach the Dust Bag
1. Fit a dust bag to the dust port 16
To Empty the Dust Bag
1. Remove dust bag from the saw and gently shake or tap the dust bag
to empty.
2. Reattach the dust bag back onto the dust port.
You may notice that all the dust will not come free from the bag. This will
not affect cutting performance but will reduce the saw's dust collection
efficiency. To restore your saw's dust collection efficiency, depress the
spring inside the dust bag when you are emptying it and tap it on the side
of the waste bin or dust receptacle.
External Dust Extraction
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to health or
carcinogenic, use a special dust Class M vacuum cleaner.
