4. Operation
The purpose of this overview is to provide the novice machine operator with a basic understanding
of how the machine is used during operation, so the machine controls/components discussed later
in this manual are easier to understand. Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is not intended
to be an instructional guide. To learn more about specific operations, read this entire manual, seek
additional training from experienced machine operators, and do additional research outside of this
manual by reading "how-to" books, trade magazines, or websites.
If you are not experienced with this type of machine, WE STRONGLY
RECOMMEND that you seek additional training outside of this manual. Read
books/magazines or get formal training before beginning any projects.
This cyclone dust collector creates a vortex of incoming air that extracts heavy wood chips and large
dust particles, and then drops them into the collection drum.
The remaining fine dust travels past the impeller and is then caught by a canister filter and deposited
in the plastic collection bag below. The spun-bond polyester filters are pleated to provide maximum
surface area for efficient air flow.
To maintain CFM during heavy dust-collection operations, turn the filter cleaning handle to knock
caked-on dust into the plastic collection bag.
Always lock the front two swivel casters before operation.
