Microfilter Dust Canister
The integrated dust-extraction system collects sanding dust in the canister supplied with
your sander. For maximum efficiency, the dust canister should be emptied frequently during
operation.
WARNING
extremely careful of dust disposal; materials in fine-particle form may be explosive. Do not
throw sanding dust on an open fire. Combustion from mixtures of dust particles with
varnishes, lacquers, polyurethane, oil, or water can occur if there is a static discharge, a
spark introduced in the canister, or excessive heat.
Installing and Removing the Dust
Canister
To install the dust canister, align the slot on
the dust canister with the rib on the tool, and
then push the dust canister onto the tool until
it locks into place (Fig. 7). To remove the dust
canister, simply pull the dust canister away
from the tool.
Cleaning and Emptying the Dust
Canister
After removing the dust canister, remove
the backing cover of the dust canister by
depressing the two latches on the cover
(Fig. 8).
Knock excess dust out of the dust canister
or remove the dust with your fingers or a soft
brush (not included). You may notice that not
all the dust has 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.
Your tool is equipped with a dust canister; empty it frequently during
use, after completion of sanding, and before storing the sander. Be
