Independent extraction
► Secure the connection piece [5-1] of the
dust collection bag [5-3] at the extractor
connector [5-2] with a clockwise rotation.
► To empty, remove the connection piece of
the dust collection bag from the extractor
connector with an anti-clockwise rotation.
Blockages in the guard may impair safety fea
tures. To avoid blockages, it is therefore better
to work with a mobile dust extractor at full suc
tion power.
Static charge may occur when sawing (e.g.
MDF). If this is the case, work with a mobile
dust extractor and an antistatic suction hose.
Festool mobile dust extractor
A Festool mobile dust extractor with a suction
hose diameter of 27 mm can be connected at
the extractor connector [5-2].
The adapter on a suction hose is inserted into
the adapter [5-2].
CAUTION! If an anti-static suction hose is not
used, static charge may occur. The user may
receive an electric shock and the electronics of
the power tool may be damaged.
