7.3 Connection of dust col-
lector
A
Danger!
Dust of certain timber species
(e.g. oak and ash) can cause cancer
when inhaled: always use a dust col-
lector when working in enclosed
spaces (air speed at the saw's dust
collection port ≥ 20 m/s).
A
Caution!
Operation without a dust col-
lector is only possible:
− outdoors;
− for short-term operation (up to
max. 30 minutes);
− with dust respirator.
If no dust collector is used, saw dust
and chips accumulate inside the
machine housing. These remains
have to be removed after 30 minutes
at the latest.
Dust collection ports are located on the
chip case and blade guard.
•
Fit the chip ejection tube (31) onto
suction port of saw housing as illus-
trated.
