collector body using eight hexagon
headed screws and washers supplied.

Ensure the side fixing holes at the side of each
collector are directly above the fixing holes in the
base plate.

6. Fix the upper bag supports in position by
bolting through the holes in the lower bag
supports to secure both supports to the
collector body shown in Fig 6.

7. Hang the two upper dust bags from
the support rod arms as shown in Fig 7.

8. Slide the securing bands into the
sleeve around the opening of the
filter/collecting bags with the clasp
components of the band pointing

USING YOUR DUST COLLECTOR

OPERATION

DO NOT OPERATE WITHOUT ALL PARTS IN PLACE!

Do not attempt to clean, remove/attach dust bags or carry out any servicing
to the unit whilst it is in operation, ALWAYS ensure it is switched off and isolated
from the mains by removing the plug from the socket.

CAUTION : THE BLOWER HOUSING CONTAINS A HIGH SPEED FAN
BLADE THAT COULD AMPUTATE FINGERS, GRAB LOOSE CLOTHING AND
NECKTIES ETC, AND PROPEL DUST AT VERY HIGH VELOCITIES.

A suitable length of flexible hose can be fitted to the collector inlet using the
3-way adapter supplied, (item No 29 in the parts list on page 13). The collec­tor can also be connected directly to the woodworking machine being used,
using the appropriate hose and adapters which can be purchased sepa­rately from your nearest Clarke dealer.

To switch ON, press the switch cover (see fig

10) down and slide in direction of arrow and

lift up, this will expose the ON/OFF buttons,
(see fig 11 ) Push the ON button, (green
button ‘I’). DO NOT close the cover as this will
switch the machine OFF again.

NOTE: In case of emergency, close the

switch cover quickly, cover will
latch down and motor will be
switched OFF. To switch OFF nor­mally, press OFF button, (red button
‘O’), always close cover to prevent
accidental starting.

MAINTENANCE

Always inspect the machine before use, and ensure it is in top condition.

Excessive dust in the motor can cause overheating, ensure all air vents are
clear, to avoid eye injury or adverse reaction to dust, clean the machine by
blowing out the air vents using low pressure compressed air where possible.

Check the power cable to ensure it is sound and free from cracks, bare wires
etc. Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts, most plastics are
susceptible to damage from the various types of commercial solvents.

11

Occasionally it may be necessary to manually clean the fan, to do this
proceed as follows.

1. Switch OFF and isolate from the main electrical supply by removing the

plug from the socket, ensuring it is not possible to be plugged back in
accidentally.

2. Remove the 12 screws securing the inlet cover and remove the cover to

expose the fan.

3. Clean the fan using a brush, cleaning cloth, vacuum cleaner and/or low

pressure compressed air.

CAUTION: BEWARE OF SHARP EDGES. IF ANY SERVICING (OTHER THAN
THE ABOVE CLEANING) BECOMES NECESSARY, IT SHOULD BE CARRIED
OUT BY AN AUTHORISED SERVICE CENTRE.
