ROUTER DUST COLLECTION

Your router is equipped with a dust extraction hood. If you have a shop vacuum system, you can attach the dust extraction hood for improved visibility, accuracy and utility, particularly in freehand routing.

To attach, align tabs on hood with notches in base, and position as shown. Rotate hood slightly counter-clockwise and secure adapter to base with the thumbscrew provided (Fig. 5).

To further enhance the dust collection efficiency, insert the extraction enhancement ring. To remove, press the two tabs inward, and lift out. Make sure ring does not touch bit at any time.

The dust extraction hood itself is sized to accept 35mm vacuum hoses. Also included is an adapter that will connect the hood to 1-1/4” and 1-1/2” vacuum hoses.
