ATTACHING A VACUUM CLEANER/
DUST ExTRACTOR
The saw’s dust port will accept the typical
nozzles from 35 mm (1⅜") vacuum cleaner
hoses, and Bosch VH–Series hoses.
To connect the saw with a 1¼" (32mm) or
1½" (38mm) hose, the Bosch VAC024
adapter can be used (sold separately).
Note: the sizes above indicate the
hose
di-
ameters and not the
nozzle
diameters.
Attaching to Vacuum
– Insert the vacuum
nozzle into (or onto) the exit port as far as
it will go (Fig. 7). Check to see that the vac-
uum hose is free from the mechanism and
cutting path before plugging saw into
power source.
