Symptom
Possible Cause
Possible Solution
Loud, repetitious
noise, or excessive
vibration coming
from dust collector
(non-motor related).
1. Dust collector not on a flat surface and
wobbles.
2. Impeller is damaged and unbalanced.
3. Impeller is loose on the motor shaft.
1. Stabilize dust collector; lock casters.
2. Disconnect dust collector from power. Inspect
impeller for dents, bends, or loose fins. Replace
impeller if damaged.
3. Secure impeller; replace motor and impeller as a set
if motor shaft and impeller hub are damaged.
Dust collector does
not adequately
collect dust or chips;
poor performance.
1. Collection bag is full.
2. Canister filter is clogged/at fault.
3. Ducting blocked/restricted.
4. Dust collector too far away from point of
suction; duct clamps not properly secured;
too many sharp bends in ducting.
5. Lumber is wet and dust is not flowing
smoothly through ducting.
6. Ducting has one or more leaks, or too
many open ports.
7. Not enough open branch lines at one time,
causing a velocity drop in main line.
8. Ducting and ports are incorrectly sized.
9. The machine dust collection design is
inadequate.
10. Dust collector is undersized.
1. Empty collection bag.
2. Wash canister filter (
Page 36); replace canister filter
(
Page 39).
3. Remove ducting from dust collector inlet and
unblock the restriction. A plumbing snake may be
necessary.
4. Relocate dust collector closer to point of suction;
re-secure ducts; remove sharp bends. Refer to
Designing the System in manual.
5. Process lumber with less than 20% moisture
content.
6. Seal/eliminate all ducting leaks; close dust ports
for lines not being used. Refer to
Designing the
System in manual.
7. Open 1 or 2 more blast gates to different branch
lines to increase main line velocity.
8. Install correctly sized ducts and fittings (
Page 22)
Refer to
Designing the System in manual.
9. Use a dust collection hood on a stand (
Page 34).
10. Install a larger dust collector.
Dust collector blows
sawdust into the air.
1. Duct clamps or filter bag(s) are not properly
clamped and secured; ducting loose/
damaged.
2. Cylinder or funnel seals are loose or
damaged.
1. Re-secure ducts and filter bag, making sure duct
and bag clamp are tight; tighten/replace ducting.
2. Retighten all mounting and sealing points; replace
