INTRODUCTION
The AC82E is a compact, well made chip extractor for use in a home workshop. The main body can be mounted either way up, giving a choice of inlet positions on the top or bottom of the machine. It is powered by a 230V 1.1kW induction motor, which produces quite a vigorous airflow, ensuring better than average waste collection performance.
The base has castors fitted for easy mobility around the workshop.
HAVING UNPACKED YOUR MACHINE, PLEASE DISPOSE OF THE PACKAGING PROPERLY.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR 230V MACHINES
The following will enable you to observe good working practices, keep yourself and fellow workers safe and maintain your tools and equipment in good working order.
WARNING!! KEEP TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT OUT OF REACH OF YOUNG CHILDREN
KEEP WORK AREA AS UNCLUTTERED AS IS PRACTICAL. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD CHILDREN BE ALLOWED IN WORK AREAS.
Mains Powered Tools
• Tools are supplied with an attached 13 Amp plug.
• Inspect the cable and plug to ensure that neither are
damaged. Repair if necessary by a suitably qualified person.
• Do not use when or where it is liable to get wet.
Workplace
• Do not use 230V a.c. powered tools anywhere
within a site area that is flooded.
• Keep machine clean.
As standard, 30 micron filter bag is fitted, along with a plastic waste sack. The filtration can be upgraded with an optional 1 micron cartridge filter. This has a very large surface area, so does not impede the airflow.
The inlet size is 100mm, allowing easy connection to many types of machines using flexible hose. Please do not step down the hose diameter below 75mm, as the airflow volume will drastically fall below this diameter.
• Leave machine unplugged until work is about to commence.
• Always disconnect by pulling on the plug body and not the cable.
• Carry out a final check e.g. check the cutting tool
is securely tightened in the machine and the correct speed and function set.
• Ensure you are comfortable before you start work,
balanced, not reaching etc.
• Wear appropriate safety clothing, goggles, gloves, masks etc. Wear ear defenders at all times.
• If you have long hair wear a hair net or helmet to prevent it being caught up in the rotating parts of the machine.
• Consideration should be given to the removal of rings and wristwatches.
• Consideration should also be given to non-slip
footwear etc.
• If another person is to use the machine, ensure they are suitably qualified to use it.
• Do not use the machine if you are tired or distracted.
• Do not use this machine within the designated safety
areas of flammable liquid stores or in areas where there may be volatile gases.
• Check cutters are correct type and size, are undamaged and are kept clean and sharp, this will maintain their operating performance and lessen the loading on the machine.
• OBSERVE…. make sure you know what is happening around you and USE YOUR COMMON SENSE.

SPECIFIC SAFETY FOR DUST EXTRACTORS
DO NOT use this machine as a vacuum cleaner, try to keep the waste medium to wood by-products.
DO NOT uplift workshop floor debris (stones, nails, screws, paper etc., etc). Be aware that wood dust is an explosive medium.
DO NOT allow any ‘naked light’ source to occur anywhere near the machine. This includes cigarettes, matches, etc, and do not place the machine near any unprotected light bulbs, that could possibly get broken.
The suction force is generated by a high speed fan unit. This has the potential to amputate fingers, grab loose clothing (ties etc.,) and ‘bat’ large chips etc, at high speeds. Keep all guarding in place, and if access to the fan becomes necessary (due to blockage etc.,) Disconnect the machine from the mains supply and ensure the fan has come to a complete stop before putting your hands anywhere near to it.
If you are not using ‘clear’ extraction hose, periodically remove the hose to check that the inlet to the machine is not getting restricted.
ONLY USE DUST EXTRACTION BAGS WITH THIS MACHINE NOT DOMESTIC WASTE BAGS!
The safety guard grill of the inlet duct can be particularly irksome in this way, as long strand shavings etc., can wrap around the grill fret.
KEEP the particle filter clean. The machine relies on its ability to ‘blow’ air through the filter, to generate good suction. If the particle filter starts to clog, this reduces the air flow and hence the machine becomes less efficient. The particle filter can be cleaned, by using an ‘M’ class vacuum cleaner, clean the inside of the filter.
BE AWARE that in dry air periods or areas, the movement of the air through the machine can generate static electric fields. These are not normally a problem as the machine is bonded together via its construction and the whole is earthed back through the electrical supply; problems can occur with isolated items, such as stands or hosing that are insulated from the ground (standing on rubber feet?, suspended in the air etc). If possible, try to connect everything together electrically, to eliminate static shocks.
(Use the integral metal coil in flexible hosing to connect the units together). Try to route the power cable and the hosing away from busy walkways.
DO NOT PLACE DUST EXTRACTION BAGS OVER THE FILTER ASSEMBLY!

After a period of time dust, sawdust and shavings can build up causing blockages and reduced suction performance. Carry out the following checks to keep your extractor working at peak performance.
DISCONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY FROM THE MAINS!
ALWAYS WEAR A DUST MASK AND EYE PROTECTION.
• Remove the micron filter bag and check for signs of
build up of sawdust and clean with an ‘M’ class vacuum cleaner.
• If you have the cartridge filter fitted, move the shaker
paddle handle back and forth to remove any built up dust and debris from inside the filter.
• Check the hose/s for blockages.
• Check the dust collecting bag and empty if full.
WAIT UNTIL IT’S UP TO FULL SPEED AND CHECK FOR SIGNS OF VIBRATION, IF ALL IS WELL SWITCH OFF AND WAIT UNTIL THE EXTRACTOR HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP.
IF THE EXTRACTOR FAILS TO START UP OR THERE ARE ANY OTHER STRANGE NOISES APART FROM VIBRATION SOUNDS, CONTACT THE “ TECHNICAL SALES” FOR SUPPORT.
PHONE: 03332 406406 EMAIL:
• After a period of time remove the cartridge filter if
installed and using a ‘M’ class vacuum cleaner clean the interior and exterior of the filter.

MAINTENANCE
DISCONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY FROM THE MAINS!
ALWAYS WEAR A DUST MASK AND 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 an ‘M’ class vacuum cleaner.
• Move the shaker paddle handle on top of the filter cartridge assembly, if fitted, back and forth to remove any built up dust and debris from inside the filter.
