Microfilter Dust Canister
The integral dust extraction system collects sanding dust in canister supplied with your sander.
For maximum efficiency, the dust canister should be emptied frequently during operation.
WARNING
careful of dust disposal, materials in fine particle form may be explosive. Do not throw sanding
dust on an open fire. Combustion from mixture of varnishes, lacquers, polyurethane, oil or
water with dust particles can occur if there is a static discharge, spark introduced in the box, or
excessive heat.
Removing And Installing Dust Canister
To remove dust canister, rotate canister so that slot is in line with pin and simply pull away
from the dust port (Fig. 1).
To install dust canister, align dust port with hole in canister, push canister onto dust port and
rotate until it locks into place.
Cleaning And Emptying The Dust Canister
Knock excess dust out of the microfilter, or remove dust with your fingers or a soft brush.
You may notice that all the dust may not come out of the canister. This will not affect sanding
performance but will reduce dust collection efficiency.
NOTE: Do not wash the micro filter with soap and water. Dust may become more firmly lodged
in the pores, which will reduce dust collection, and damage the micro filter.

Your tool is equipped with a dust port for dust
extraction. To use this feature, insert standard
