Dust Collection
Figure 66. 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 66, and secure
with hose clamp.
Minimum CFM at 5" Dust Port:
600 CFM
Minimum CFM at 4" 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.
2. Fit 4" dust hose over dust port on middle
guard arm, as shown in
Figure 67, and
secure with hose clamp.
3. Tug on dust hoses to make sure they do not
come off. A tight fit is necessary for proper
performance.
