throw sawdust on an open fire. Spontaneous
combustion, in time, may result from the mix-

dust port (Fig. 11, 41).
Cleaning Dust Bag – After the dust bag is 2/3 to
3/4 full, remove it from the saw. Bring the bag
to a proper container and pull open the zipper
located on the bottom of the bag. Hold the bag
by the coupler end and shake it vigorously until
all the dust and debris fall from it. Close zipper
and reattach the bag.
