Q
Vacuuming dust
WArnInG!
FIrE HAzArD!
A risk of fire exists when working with 
electrical appliances that have a dust 
collection box
4
or can be attached to a vacuum
cleaner via an external suction adapter! Under cer
tain conditions the sanding dust in the dust box (or 
in the vacuum’s dust bag) may selfignite, e.g. as 
a result of flying sparks generated when abrading 
metals or metal objects left in wood. This can hap
pen especially if the wood dust has paint particles 
on it or is mixed with other chemical substances 
and the sanded material is hot after extensive 
working. You should therefore avoid overheating 
of products being sanded as well as the appliance 
and always empty the dust collection box 
4
or
the dust bag of the vacuum cleaner before work 
pauses.
Wear a dust mask!
