Dust/Chip Extraction

The dust from materials such as lead paint, certain types of wood and minerals can be harmful to human health. Touching or breathing in this dust can trigger allergic reactions and/or cause respiratory illnesses in the user or in people in the near vicinity.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are classified as carcinogenic, especially in conjunction with wood treatment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing asbestos may only be machined by specialists.

• Use a dust extraction system that is suitable for the material wherever possible.
• Provide good ventilation at the workplace.
• It is advisable to wear a P2 filter class breathing mask.

The regulations on the material being machined that apply in the country of use must be observed.

Place and move the complete dust bag (2) onto the extraction outlet (22) until it lines up precisely with the power tool.

To empty the dust bag(23), pull the complete dust bag (2) away from the extraction outlet (22). Unscrew the adapter (24) from the dust bag (23) and empty the dust bag.

Note: Empty the dust bag (23) in good time to ensure optimum dust extraction.

When working vertical surfaces, hold the power tool in such a manner that the dust bag (2) faces downward.

Fit a dust extraction hose (25) onto the extraction outlet (22).

Connect the dust extraction hose (25) to an extractor. You will find an overview of connecting to various dust extractors at the end of these operating instructions.

The dust extractor must be suitable for the material being worked.

When extracting dry dust that is especially detrimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special dust extractor.

When working on vertical surfaces, hold the power tool with the dust extraction hose facing downwards.
