Attaching the Vacuum Adapter
This lets you perform engraving while taking up cutting waste using a vacuum cleaner with the vacuum adapter
attached. This can minimize scattering of cutting waste.
WARNING
When using a vacuum cleaner to take up cutting waste, exercise caution to
prevent re or dust explosion.
Picking up ne cuttings using an ordinary vacuum cleaner may result in re or
explosion. Check with the manufacturer of the vacuum cleaner. When the safety
of use cannot be determined, clean the machine using a brush or the like, without
using a vacuum cleaner.
CAUTION
The machine contains blades and other sharp components.
Be careful not to touch the tool tip or any other sharp edges. Doing so may cause
injury.
CAUTION
Do not touch the spindle unit immediately after engraving has ended.
Doing so may result in burns.
Before using the vacuum adapter, be sure to verify the following points
• Use a vacuum cleaner that allows adjustment of the suction force and is equipped with an
overload protector.
To prevent re or explosion, carefully check the specications of your vacuum cleaner before use, including
contacting the manufacturer if necessary.
• Be sure to use the nose unit.
The vacuum adapter cannot be attached unless the nose unit is installed.
" P. 43 "2. Install the cutter holder, solid collet, and nose unit."
• Be sure to use a vacuum cleaner hose having a diameter that allows connection with the
vacuum adapter hose.
The diameter of the vacuum adapter hose is 32 mm (1.3 in.).
