MAINTENANCE
Empty the collection drum when it is approximately
3
/
4
full as seen through the viewing window. If the drum
is overfilled, dust will be sucked into the inlet cylinder
and pass through to the filter. Sawdust and wood chips
collected from different machines will require you to
adjust the frequency of inspections.
To empty the sawdust from the drum, use the clamping
lever (see
Figure 35
) on the drum lid to lift the lid and
roll the drum out for emptying.
To empty the canister bag, use the canister quick release
clamp to remove and dump the bag. The bags may be
reused several times. We do not recommend using plain
garbage bags as the wall thickness is insufficient to
prevent blow-out.
Emptying Drum
No maintenance such as bearing lubrication is required
on this machine. But it is important to empty the drum
and clean the filter during use. To catch any potential
problems, make it a habit to inspect your machine
before and after you use it.
Check for the following conditions and repair or
replace when necessary:
•
Check loose mounting bolts and ducting.
•
Check worn or damaged wires.
•
Check system for leaks.
•
Check for tears in the filter or bags.
•
Look for any other unsafe condition.
General
Your cyclone dust collector has a set of paddles inside the
filter for cleaning. This paddle system is controlled by the
filter cleaning handle (see Figure 35 ). To clean the filter,
simply rotate the handle left and right, so the paddles
ripple against the internal filter pleats and knock off the
caked-on dust. The dust will then fall into the collection
bag below. During heavy sanding operations, the canister
may have to be cleaned this way several times during
the day. Periodically inspect the bag, the quick release
clamp, and the canister filter for evidence of any leakage
or tears. If damage is found, immediately replace as
required. Refer to
SERVICE
for major filter cleaning.
Normal Filter Cleaning
MAKE SURE that your machine is
unplugged during all maintenance pro-
cedures! And Always wear goggles and
a respirator when emptying the dust
collection bags. Sawdust may cause
allergic reactions or respiratory prob-
lems.
