ASSEMBLY

Dust Hood

When connected to a dust collection system, the dust hood directs suction to remove harmful wood and abrasive dust from your work area. For additional information on the correct dust collection system, additions, or modifications; contact your Woodstock International dealer for your copy of the Dust Collection Basics hand- book and available accessories.

DO NOT operate this machine without the cor- rect dust collection sys- tem. Failure to use a dust collection system can result in short and long- term respiratory illness.

To connect dust hood, do these steps:

1.Locate your dust edge sander where it will be used

2.Connect your dust collection suction tube to the dust port, so when you tilt the platen from the vertical to the horizontal position, the suction tube will not bind, leak, or dis- connect the dust-collector ducting ground. See Figure 20.
