Model G0900 (Mfd. Since 03/20)
Dust Collection
To connect dust collection system to machine:
1. Fit 4" dust hoses over two dust ports and
secure in place with hose clamps (see
Figure
18).
Minimum CFM at Dust Port: 400 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.
4. Secure spindle nut with spindle wrench and
tighten drawbar nut (see
Figure 17). DO
NOT use excessive force.

removed for clarity).
5. Lock spindle seat by returning spindle assem-
bly lock handle to original position. Spindle
should rotate freely in both directions
securely.
2. Tug hoses to make sure they do not come
off.
Note: A tight fit is necessary for proper
performance.
