Dust Extraction - Metabo BAE 75 Notice Originale

mate, wood preservative). Material containing
asbestos must only be treated by specialists.
- Use a dust extractor or the dust bag where
possible.
- To achieve a high level of dust collection, use a
suitable Metabo vacuum cleaner together with
this tool.
- The work place must be well ventilated.
- The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is
recommended.
Follow national requirements for the materials you
want to work with.
Materials that generate dusts or vapours that may
be harmful to health must not be processed.
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause
loss of hearing.
Secure the workpiece against slipping, e.g. with
the help of clamping devices.
Always guide the machine with both hands on the
handles provided. Loss of control can lead to inju-
ries.
Remove chips and similar material only with the
machine at standstill.
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any
adjustments or servicing are performed.
Avoid inadvertent starts by always unlocking the
switch when the plug is removed from the mains
socket or in case of a power cut.

Dust extraction

Dust bag:
Mount the dust bag (2) with its connector on the
machine's ejection nozzle (3) and turn counter-
clockwise as far as the stop (bayonet catch).
To optimise the extraction performance, empty the
dust bag in good time. The dust bag should not be
filled with sanding dust beyond 1/3 of its capacity.
When emptying the dust bag, ensure that
sanding dust cannot penetrate your body or
harm other persons.
Dust extraction with a dust extractor:
During long periods of sanding wood and - in
commercial applications - materials where dust
that is harmful to health is created during
processing (e.g. beech and oak, leaded coatings,
metals), the belt sander must be connected to an
extraction device suitable for this purpose.
Comment: In Germany, extraction devices certi-
fied according to TRGS 533 (Technical Rules on
Dangerous Substances) must be used to extract
wood dust. For other materials, commercial users
must clarify the special requirements with the
responsible employer's liability insurance associa-
tion.
- Remove the dust bag (2).
(Bayonet catch! Turn the dust bag clockwise and
remove from the machine's ejection nozzle (3)
together with its connector.)
- Fit adapter (8) onto ejection nozzle (3).
- Fit the hose on the adapter (8).
(Fitting requires exertion of force. Use a hose
with connector dia. 35 mm, e.g. the hose from a
