Dust Bag Assembly
(Fig. 6, 7)
Your tool is equipped with a
dust bag: empty it frequent-
ly, after completion of sanding, and before
storing the sander. Be extremely 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 varnish-
es, lacquers, polyurethane, oil or water with
dust particles can occur if there is a static dis-
charge, spark introduced in the box, or exces-
sive heat.
The integral dust extraction system collects
sanding dust in the Dust Bag 23 supplied with
your sander. For maximum efficiency, the Dust
Bag 23 should be emptied frequently during op-
eration.
Removing and Installing Dust Bag
Assembly
To remove Dust Bag Assembly 2: twist the Dust
Bag 23 left or right and simply pull away from
the tool.
To install Dust Bag Assembly 2: align Dust Port
22 with hole in Dust Bag Assembly 2 and push
onto tool until it locks into place (Fig. 5).
Cleaning and Emptying the
Dust Bag Assembly
Before opening the Dust Bag 23, it is recom-
mended to loosen dust from the Dust Bag 23 by
gently tapping it against a solid surface.
To empty Dust Bag 23: hold Dust Bag 23 and
maintain a firm grip. Unscrew the Dust Bag 23
from the Dust Bag Adapter 24 and pull them
apart (Fig. 6). Then, shake out the Dust Bag 23
over a suitable waste bin (Fig. 7). Knock excess
dust out of the Dust Bag 23, or remove dust with
your fingers or a soft brush. You may notice that
all the dust may not come out of the Dust Bag
23. This will not affect sanding performance but
will reduce dust collection efficiency.
NOTE: Do not wash the Dust Bag 23 with soap
and water. Dust may become more firmly lodged
in the pores, which will reduce dust collection.
