Of course it does - that's why it's there. Mine is used (quite unfairly)as a dust extractor on a small saw bench, making more dust in a few minutes than a householder will get in a month. Keeping an eye on it, and emptying the container in good time - a very simple and clean job - avoids any trouble. If your machine keeps shutting down, appreciate the thermal cut-out. It's telling you that you should already have emptied the container. If you use an Alyx, play fair with it, or buy an industrial machine.
