dle [7.5].
WARNING
Risk of injury

clamping unit faces forward.
7.4 Dust extraction
WARNING
Health hazard posed by dust
► Always work with an extractor.
► Comply with national regulations.
► Wear a dust mask.
A Festool dust extractor with an extractor hose
diameter of 36 mm or 27 mm (36 mm recom­
mended due to the reduced risk of clogging)
can be connected to the extractor connec­
tor [9.1].
The flexible chip deflector [9.2] improves the
collection of dust and chips. Therefore, never
work without a fitted chip deflector.
The chip deflector is clamped in position on the
guard with the clamp [10.1]. For this, the
hooks [10.2] of the clamp must lock into the re­
cesses [10.3] of the guard.
