1. Inspecting the body of the dust extractor system
Regularly inspect the places where the various parts

The terminal of the dust extractor system is an
important component that supplies electrical current
to the motor.

adhered to the terminal, use a soft brush or a similar
tool to clean o
ff
the adhered concrete dust before
using the dust extractor system again.
Additionally, clean the area around the terminal
insertion port of the tool body.
