Vacuum dust extraction
WARNING!
DANGER OF FIRE! There is
the danger of fire when working with electrical de-
vices that have a dustbox or can be connected to a
vacuum cleaner. Under certain conditions the
wood dust in the dust collection box (or in the vacu-
um‘s dust bag) may self-ignite, e.g. as a result of
flying sparks generated when abrading metals or
metal objects left in wood. This can happen partic-
ularly if the wood dust is mixed with paint residue
or other chemicals and the abraded particles are
hot from prolonged abrasion. Therefore you must
empty the device’s dust collection box and the vac-
uum cleaner’s dust bag before taking a break or
stopping work and always avoid overheating of the
abraded particles and the device.
Wear a dust mask!

WARNING!
If there is an explosive mixture

cially intended for that purpose.
DANGER OF FIRE! Do not use vacuum dust
