Abstract

A system for collecting debris produced during a cutting operation and having a shield to be placed against a surface so that the shield and surface cooperatively define an accumulation volume. The shield has at least one opening communicating from the accumulation volume to externally of the shield. First, second, and third different connectors are provided respectively on first, second, and third conduits, each with a passage. The first, second, and third connectors are releasably operatively engageable with the adaptor, one in place of the others, whereby a communication path is defined from the accumulation volume through the at least one shield opening and into the passage on one of the first, second, and third conduits on a selected one of the first, second, and third connectors that is releasably operatively engaged with the adaptor. The communication path is usable to direct debris produced from cutting from the collection volume to a location externally of the shield.
