WARNING! always wear a dust mask

WARNING! Always wear eye protection

Daily

• Empty the collection bag before it overflows, wear a dust mask 
whilst removing and emptying the bag.
 
Weekly
 
• Check the inlet and outlet duct and remove any accumulated 
sawdust.
 
•Check the inlet hoses for splits and cracks, repair as necessary.
 
• Check the dust collection bag for wear and tear, especially 
around the neck of the retaining belt. If wear
or fraying is occurring, replace the bag.

• Check the motor for dust, sawdust, shavings etc, build up. If 
this has occurred, clean with a vacuum cleaner, see fig 45. 
 
• Move the shaker paddle handle back and forth to remove any 
built up dust and debris from inside the filter. 

Monthly

•  Remove the filter securing belt and remove the filter assem-
bly, see fig 46 using an ‘M’ class vacuum cleaner, clean inside the 
filter.

Many manufacturers will state the volume of air required for each machine in their manual. If 
not, note the size of the extraction port and use the chart below

Basic design 
• Keep it simple, don’t over complicate the system.  
•  Keep it straight, ducting runs should all be straight with as few bends as possible.
•  Keep transfer duct as big as required by the extractor, this should get larger towards the 

extractor.

•  Keep flexible duct to a minimum. If the machine cannot be connected to the system by 

solid ducting only then should flexible ducting be used for the final connection. 

•  Keep branches joining the duct to a maximum of 45°  When branches join the main duct 

ideally they must enter at the side or the top at an angle of a maximum of 45° towards the 
direction of flow. 

• Fit Blastgates to maximise efficiency and balance the system.
The negative pressure inside the ducting draws air into the system. Incorrect sizing of the 
duct, too many bends coupled to lots of flexible hose induces losses into the system and in 
badly designed systems this is akin to leaving the hand brake on in a vehicle.

Example: for a single machine with a 100mm port an extractor of a minimum of 700m³/hr 
will be sufficient. For multiple machines count the number of extraction ports per size, multi-
ply the number of each size by the volume of air required. Then add the results per outlet size 
to give you a total volume of air required. This total is for all the machines operating at the 
same time. You then must decide which and how many machines will be used at the same 
time. Divide the total volume of air required by this number and add 500m³/hr. Choose an 
extractor that gives the airflow required by your calculations. Look at the main inlet size of the 
extractor, this is the size of the main duct to be used. In larger systems the ducting should get 
larger towards the extraction unit as more machines that are in use are added to maintain the 
correct air speed in the duct. This is very important; if the airflow is too low a build up of dust 
and debris will occur and is a fire and explosion risk. If the air speed is high then the system 
will be noisy but there will be no deposits in the ducting. Always use blastgates to close off 
airflow to machines that are not in use.
