TO EMPTY THE DUST COLLECTION BAG

For more efficient operation, empty the dust collection bag when it is no more than half full. This action permits the air to flow through the bag better. Always empty and clean the dust collection bag thoroughly upon completion of a sanding operation and before placing the sander in storage.

_1 WARNING: Collected sanding dust from sanding surface coatings such as polyurethanes, linseed

oil, etc. can self-ignite in your sander dust collection bag or elsewhere and cause fire. To reduce the risk of fire always empty your dust bag frequently (10-15 minutes) while sanding and never store or leave a sander without totally emptying its dust bag. Also follow the recommendations of the coatings manufacturers.
