DUST CHUTE
See Figure 70.
This saw features a dust chute for convenience in discharging
sawdust. A standard shop vac can be attached to the chute,
located under the back side of the saw.
During periods of extended use, the dust chute should be
emptied and cleaned to prevent buildup of sawdust and to
make sure there are no obstructions or other small offcuts
that may have fallen into the throat plate opening that could
hinder maximum performance.
To clean the dust chute:
Unplug the saw.
Loosen the screw at the bottom of the dust chute.
Remove the cover.
Shake out any sawdust and wipe with a clean dry cloth,
as needed.
Replace the cover and securely tighten the screw.
