ADDITIONAL RULES FOR DUST
EXTRACTORS
1. Dust extractors are frequently moved around the workshop. Make sure that
mains cables and extractor hoses are positioned in such a way that they do
not present a trip hazard.
2. Do not pick up pieces of metal or chunks of wood.
3. Switch off and unplug the extractor before removing the collection bag and/or
filter.
4. Do not allow the collection bag to become over full.
5. When necessary, wash, thoroughly rinse and completely dry the filter bag.
Using a wet or damp filter bag will reduce its efficiency as it will quickly
become clogged.
6. Dispose of waste in accordance with local regulations.
