Cleaning The Dust Bag - Craftsman 320.39598 Operator's Manual

CLEANING THE DUST BAG
For more efficient operation, empty the dust bag when it is no more than half full.
This will permit the air to flow through the bag better.
To empty the dust bag
1. Unplug the sander.
2. Remove the dust bag from the sander and shake out the dust.
3. For a more thorough cleaning of
the dust bag, remove the dust Fig. 6
bag from the frame and then
shake out the dust (Fig. 6).
4. Replace the dust bag over
the frame, then reinstall it on
the sander.

risk of fire, always empty the dust bag frequently while sanding and never
store or leave a sander without totally emptying its dust bag. Also follow the
recommendations of the coating manufacturer.

the motor housing top cap where
