Using the Ecoguard Type CD Dust Collection Cover is a breeze. First, connect it to your vacuum using the dust hose - it fits most hoses. Then, place it on the surface where you'll be drilling, whether it's horizontal or vertical, and use the vacuum to secure it. Start your drilling, and the shroud will contain dust and water, keeping your work area clean. When using water, it also stops splashing. As for maintenance, after each use, simply remove the shroud from the vacuum and clean it with a mild detergent and water. Make sure it's completely dry before storing it. And always check for any signs of wear and tear regularly, like cracks or loose parts. If you notice any issues, replace the part as needed to keep it working effectively.
