Dust Collection
Figure 59. 5" dust hose attached to dust port.
To connect dust collection hoses:
1. Fit 5" dust hose over dust port on rear side of
cabinet, as shown in
Figure 59, and secure
with hose clamp.
Minimum CFM at 5" Dust Port:
615 CFM
Minimum CFM at 3" Dust Port:
150 CFM
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with
the rating of the dust collector. To determine the
CFM at the dust port, you must consider these
variables: (1) CFM rating of the dust collector,
(2) hose type and length between the dust col-
lector and the machine, (3) number of branches
or wyes, and (4) amount of other open lines
throughout the system. Explaining how to cal-
culate these variables is beyond the scope of
this manual. Consult an expert or purchase a
good dust collection "how-to" book.
This machine creates a lot of wood chips/
dust during operation. Breathing airborne
dust on a regular basis can result in perma-
nent respiratory illness. Reduce your risk
by wearing a respirator and capturing the
dust with a dust collection system.
Hose Clamp
2. Fit 3" dust hose over dust port on blade
guard, as shown in
Figure 60, then secure it
with a hose clamp.
3. Connect 5" and 3" dust hoses to a Y-fitting,
as shown in the example in
Figure 61, then
attach it to a single dust collection branch
line.

Hose Clamp
4. Tug on dust hoses to make sure they do not
come off. A tight fit is necessary for proper
performance.
