WARNING: For optimum dust removal, empty the dust bag when it is no more than half full.
Do not use the dust bag when sanding metal. The hot metal particles could cause residual wood dust or the bag itself to catch fire. A vacuum cleaner adaptor can be used to connect a household vacuum cleaner or workshop dust extraction system to the sander. The adaptor fits into the dust extraction port (11).
General inspection

•The supply cord of the tool and any extension cord used should be checked frequently for damage. It damaged, have the cordset replaced by an authorised service facility. Replace the extension cord if necessary.
