Dust/Chip Extraction

f Before any work on the machine itself, pull

the mains plug.

f Dusts from materials such as lead-containing

coatings, some wood types, minerals and

metal can be harmful to one’s health. Touch-

ing or breathing-in the dusts can cause aller-

gic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infec-

tions of the user or bystanders.

Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are

considered as carcinogenic, especially in

connection with wood-treatment additives

(chromate, wood preservative). Materials

containing asbestos may only be worked by

specialists.

– Use dust extraction whenever possible.

– Provide for good ventilation of the work-

ing place.

– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-

class respirator.

Observe the relevant regulations in your

country for the materials to be worked.

External Dust Extraction

Mount the vacuum hose 31 (accessory) on to

the saw dust ejector 18. Connect the vacuum

hose 31 to a vacuum cleaner (accessory). An

overview for connecting to various vacuum

cleaners can be found at the end of this manual.

The machine can be plugged directly into the re-

ceptacle of a Bosch all-purpose vacuum cleaner

with remote starting control. The vacuum clean-

er starts automatically when the machine is

switched on.

The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the ma-

terial being worked.

When vacuuming dry dust that is especially det-

rimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special

vacuum cleaner.

Integrated Dust Extraction with Dust Bag

For smaller jobs, a dust bag (accessory) can be

mounted. Insert the dust bag sleeve firmly into

the saw dust ejector 18. Empty the dust bag at

regular intervals to maintain optimum dust col-

lection.
