12. HOW IT WORKS WITH EDGE POWER CUTTER
HOW IT WORKS
Silica dust, fumes & slurry get
sucked away from powercutter
through vacuum hose.
The silica dust & slurry get captured
in 90 litre resevoir.
Power cutter exhaust fumes get removed through the
exhaust port and down the 50mm/2” Guarda hose.*
*(Always place hose end outside
in a well ventilated area)
