Introduction
Instructions For Use
Check if the bag needs emptying or changing before and after use.
Airborne wood dust is hazardous to health. Wood dust should always be vacuumed rather than swept with a brush to avoid creating airborne dust.
Large chips, eg from planing or the wood lathe should be gathered up using the dustpan and brush and binned before vacuuming.
Do not use without a bag fitted.
Do not use without a filter fitted.
No Wet Use.
This machine is for use with wood dust in the wood workshop, if it is used with liquids it will get gummed up inside.
Do not use this extractor for liquids … unless it is an emergency. Instead, use the Charles vacuum from the CNC for liquids.
If there is an emergency need to use this for liquids, it has that capability, please read page 10 of the manual for how to set it up. (clean out wood dust, remove bag, change filter) and ensure that you clean and dry the vacuum after use.

- Handle the bag with care to avoid damage.
- Insert the collection bag into the container with the opening towards the front of the vacuum cleaner (images below).
