Machine Setup
This sanding machine is designed to be operated with a remote vacuum
dust collection system or with the included dust bag.
Preparing Remote Vacuum Dust Collection Systems
To prepare the machine for remote vacuum dust collection systems that
have a 2" hose end, follow this procedure:
1. Install 2" hose end (figure 4, A) directly into the exhaust tube (figure
4, B).
2. The exhaust tube can be rotated for optimum convenience.
To prepare the machine for remote vacuum dust collection systems that
have a 1 ½" hose end, follow this procedure:
1. Install the 2" x 1½" hose end adaptor (Part No. 30563A) (figure 4, C)
over the exhaust tube (figure 4, B).
2. Insert 1 ½" hose end (figure 4, D) into the adaptor (figure 4, C).
NOTE: Start the remote vacuum collection system before operation.
Preparing to use the included dust bag
To prepare the machine for use with the included dust bag (Part No.
53741A), follow this procedure:
1. Install the dust bag by pressing the end onto the exhaust tube until
the ring locks into the groove (figure 5). This is best done by press-
ing on the back of the bag opening with the palm of your hand.
2. The exhaust tube can be rotated for optimum convenience.
3. To remove the dust bag from the exhaust tube, pry up the end of the
bag opening to partially release the internal rib from the groove, then
pull.
4. To empty the dust bag, unzip the disposal flap and force contents out
by inverting the bag.
NOTE: For best results, empty frequently. Follow all warnings
posted in this manual and on the dust bag.
