Vacuuming dust
WARNING!
FIRE HAZARD!
A risk of fire exists when working with
electrical appliances that have a dust
collection box
4
or can be attached to a vacuum
cleaner via an external suction adapter! Under cer-
tain conditions the sanding dust in the dust box (or
in the vacuum’s dust bag) may self-ignite, e.g. as a
result of flying sparks generated when abrading
metals or metal objects left in wood. This can hap-
pen especially if the wood dust has paint particles
on it or is mixed with other chemical substances
and the sanded material is hot after extensive work-
ing. You should therefore avoid overheating of
products being sanded as well as the appliance
and always empty the dust collection box
4
or
the dust bag of the vacuum cleaner before work
pauses.
Wear a dust mask!
