and dust collection easy. To attach the dust bag, fit it onto
the dust nozzle.
When the dust bag is about half full, remove the dust bag
from the tool and pull the fastener out. Empty the dust
bag of its contents, tapping it lightly so as to remove
particles adhering to the insides which might hamper
further collection.
