Your tool is equipped with
a dust canister, empty it
f
requently, after completion of sanding and
before storing the sander.
Be extremely
careful of dust disposal, materials in fine
particle form may be explosive. Do not throw
sanding dust on an open fire. Combustion from
mixture of varnishes, lacquers, polyurethane,
oil or water with dust particles can occur if
there is a static discharge, spark introduced in
the box, or excessive heat.
To empty canister, hold canister and maintain
a firm grip. Firmly push upward on tab on
c
orner of lid, and remove from canister (Fig. 4).
Knock excess dust out of the microfilter, or
remove dust with your fingers or a soft brush
(Fig. 5). You may notice that all the dust may
not come out of the canister. This will not affect
sanding performance but will reduce dust
collection efficiency.
NOTE: Do not wash the micro filter with soap
and water. Dust may become more firmly
lodged in the pores, which will reduce dust
collection, and damage the micro filter.
