DUST COLLECTION (Fig. D)
WARNING: This machine creates a lot
of dust. Inhaling said dust on a regular
basis can cause permanent respiratory
illness. Minimize your exposure by
wearing a respirator and using a dust col-
lector. If you do not use some method
of dust extraction or collection, the
motor could overheat and fail. Failure to
use some method of dust extraction or
collection will void the warranty.
To connect a dust collection system to the machine:
1. Fit a 1-1/2 in. dust hose over the dust port and
secure in place with a hose clamp as needed.
2. Tug the hose to make sure that puppy is tight. A
tight fit is necessary for proper performance.
