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.
