Attaching the Straight 8” Exhaust
(non-filtered systems only)
1. Using a 7/16” wrench, loosen the (4) bolts
closest to the rectangular opening on the
blower housing and expand it slightly.
2. If not already installed, place the white
mounting sticks on the outside of the blower
housing’s plastic wrapper.
a. The blocks will be marked left and right.
b. Line up the pre-drilled holes on the
blocks with the holes on the plastic
wrapper.
c. Tighten the bolts on the top of the
blower housing to clamp the mounting
sticks in place.
3. Place the straight 8” exhaust over the opening of the blower housing and line up the pre-
drilled holes with the holes on the mounting sticks.
4. Insert a ¼”-20 x 1-½” hex bolt into each
hole from the inside, with the ends pointed
towards the exterior of the assembly.
a. Secure the transition in place using
a ¼”-20 lock washer, ¼”-20 flat
washer and a ¼”-20 nut.
b. Repeat for (3) remaining holes.
5. The exhaust is sized to receive 8” sewer
and drain PVC, which is then used to duct
to the final termination point outdoors.
7.
Caulk the seams of your blower housing (where plastic meets MDF), as well as where the
straight 8” exhaust attaches to the blower housing, using clear silicone caulk. Be sure to
cover all seams.
Sealing the exhaust is very important. If there are any leaks, the unit will blow fine dust
into your shop.
Do not remove the white block of wood mounted to the inside of your
blower housing. This block counters the sound as the impeller blade
passes by the larger opening of the blower housing, reducing noise.
