accumulate on the floor. Make it a practice to pick up and
discard this dust when you have completed cutting.
See figure 10.
The sawdust port is located at the rear of the upper guard.
A dust collection system or dust bag can be attached to this
port to aid in the removal of sawdust from the work area.
The sawdust port accepts a standard 1-1/4" vacuum hose.
