OPERATION TO ATTACH THE DUST BAG assembly See Figure 4. Unplug the sander. Slide the dust bag onto the dust exhaust on the sander using a slight twisting motion. TO EMPTY THE DUST BAg assembly See Figures 4 - 5. For more efficient operation, empty the dust bag when it is no more than half full. This will permit the air to flow through the bag better. Always empty and clean the dust bag thoroughly upon completion of a sanding operation and before placing the sander in storage. WARNING: Collected sanding dust from sanding surface coatings such as polyurethanes, linseed oil, etc., can self-ignite in the sander dust bag or elsewhere and cause fire. To reduce the risk of fire, always empty the dust bag frequently while sanding. Never store or leave a sander without totally emptying its dust bag. Also follow the recommendations of the coatings manufacturers. Unplug the sander. Remove the dust bag assembly from the sander. Shake out the dust. For a more thorough cleaning of the dust bag, remove dust bag from the frame and shake out dust. Replace the dust bag assembly on the sander. ATTACHING THE SANDER TO A VACUUM See Figure 6. When sanding for an extended period of time, you can easily attach the dust collection system of the sander to a vacuum. Unplug the sander. Remove the dust bag assembly from the sander. Attach the vacuum hose to the dust exhaust on the sander. NOTE: The vacuum hose fits inside the dust exhaust. The figure illustrates a standard 1-1/4 in. vacuum connection. Connect the sander and vacuum to a power supply. dust EXHAUST DUST BAG ASSEMBLY Fig. 4 dust EXHAUST FRAME DUST BAG Fig. 5 dust EXHAUST VACUUM HOSE Fig. 6 11
