DUSTLESS SANDING
See Figure 5 - 6.
,_ WARNING: Do not use the dust bag when sand-
ing metal. Using the dust bag when sanding metal
creates a fire hazard, which could damage the tool
and lead to serious personal injury.
The dust bag provides a dust collection system for the
sander. Sanding dust is drawn up through the holes in the
sandpaper and cushion and collects in the dust bag dur-
ing sanding operation. For more efficient operation, empty
dust bag when half full.

Sanding dust is drawn up through the holes of the sand-
ing disc to collect in the dust bag during sanding opera-
tion.
NOTE: For more efficient operation, empty dust bag
when no more than half full. This will permit the air to flow
through the bag better.
_, WARNING: Collected sanding dust from sand-
ing surface coatings such as polyurethanes, linseed
oil, etc., can self-ignite in the sander dust bag or
elsewhere and cause fire. To reduce the risk of fire,
always empty the dust bag frequently while sanding.
Never store or leave a sander without totally empty-
ing its dust bag (see Cleaning Dust Bag Assembly in
the Maintenance section of this manual). Also follow
the recommendations of the coatings manufacturers.
