DUST COLLECTION CAPABILITY

A standard 2.5 inch dust exhaust port has been provided to make
dustless sanding possible. It is on the rear of your sander as
shown. The pickup adapter end of a vacuum hose fits inside the
dust exhaust port with a wedge fit. Even with a dust collection
system, it is necessary to periodically clean sanding dust from
the recess in the table. Sawdust buildup in the table recess may
prevent the belt or spindle from making a complete oscillation,
which may cause premature wear.
See Figure 22.

TRANSPORTING SANDER

When using your sander in a portable application, it is acceptable
to lift and carry sander at the sides of the rear table by the
carry handles. Be careful when transporting to reduce the risk
of dislodging accessories, spacer ring inserts, wrench, and upper
spindle washers from their respective storage areas.
See Figure 23.
