TOOL SHOULD BE MAINTAINED
• Always unplug tool prior to inspection.
• Consult manual for specific maintaining and adjusting
procedures.
• Keep tool lubricated and clean for safest operation.
• Remove adjusting tools. Form habit of checking to see that
adjusting tools are removed before switching machine on.
• Keep all parts in working order. Check to determine that
the guard or other parts will operate properly and perform
their intended function.
• Check for damaged parts. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding, breakage, mounting and any other condi
tion that may affect a tool’s operation.
• A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced. Do not perform makeshift repairs.
(Use parts list provided to order replacement parts.)
KNOW HOW TO USE TOOL
• Use right tool for job. Do not force tool or attachment to do
a job for which it was not designed.
• Disconnect tool when performing service or maintenance.
• Avoid accidental start-up. Make sure that the switch is in
the OFF position before plugging in.
• Do not force tool. It will work most efficiently at the rate for
which it was designed.

specific limitations.
DANGER: The operation of any power tool can result in for
eign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result in
severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses complying
with United States ANSI Z87.1 (shown on package) before
commencing power tool operation.
PREPARE WORK AREA FOR JOB
• Keep work area clean. Cluttered work areas invite
accidents.
Check for shipping damage, if damage has occurred, a claim
must be filed with the carrier immediately. Check for complete
ness. Immediately report any missing parts to dealer. Remove
all components of dust collector from shipping carton.
Refer to Figure 1.
The dust collector comes assembled as one unit. Additional
loose parts which need to be fastened to the dust collector
should be located and accounted for before assembly:
A Mounting brackets (2)
B Collar with bag clamp
C Hose
D Inlet and screws (4)
E Hose clamp (2)
F Collector bag (3)
G Mounting screws and anchors (4 each)
H Bolts and washers (8 each)
ASSEMBLY
TOOLS NEEDED
• Vi" Open End Wrench
• Offset or Short Phillips Head Screwdriver
• Portable Drill
• Vt" Drill Bit
• Hammer
NOTE: For masonry walls, use four masonry anchors and
masonry drill bit of proper size for anchors (not supplied).
SELECT SITE FOR DUST COLLECTOR
Site for the dust collector should be located as close to the
woodworking machine(s) as possible. Site should be to the
Left of the machine(s), on the wall.
ATTACH WALL BRACKETS TO DUST COLLECTOR
ASSEMBLY
Refer to Figure 2.
Wall brackets need to be attached to dust collector body. To
attach wall brackets:
• Position wall bracket at set of holes at back of dust
collector body.
• Make sure that the bracket is straight up and down and
that the narrow side of slot is “UP” as shown.
• Secure each wall bracket to dust collector assembly using
four hex head bolts and flat washers.
INSTALL WALL ANCHORS
Refer to Figure 3.
Wall anchors need to be installed at the site selected for the
dust collector. To install wall anchors:
• Mark the location of anchors on the wall according to
Figure 3.
• Drill Va"hole, 1’/4" deep at each of the four marks.
• Hammer anchors into each of four holes so that they are
flush with wall.
• Partially screw in thread-forming screws so that there is
approximately Va"of threads showing.

MOUNT DUST COLLECTOR ASSEMBLY TO WALL
Refer to Figure 4,
To mount dust collector assembly:
• Lift dust collector assembly and position slots in wall
brackets over installed anchored screws. Slide dust collec
tor assembly down so that anchored screws rest in narrow
portion of slots.
NOTE: Mounting dust collector will be easier and safer if done
by two people.
• Tighten four screws using offset or short Phillips head
screwdriver.
Refer to Figure 6.
Collector bag needs to be attached to collar using collector
bag clamp. To attach collector bag:
• Remove collector bag clamp from collar.
• Slide collector bag over collar. Position bag approximately
T'h" above lower edge of collar.
NOTE: The bottom of collector bag should rest flat on the
floor, so that the floor supports the weight of wood dust and
chips.
• Position bag clamp in lower channel of collar over bag.
• Position the spring connector into one of the slots on the
latch and lock the clamp handle.
• Make sure collector bag is secure.
NOTE: The top of collector bag should NOT block the filter. If
collector bag does block filter, fold excess bag over bag
clamp.

ATTACH COLLAR
Refer to Figure 5.
Collar needs to be attached to lower flex-ring of filter. To
attach lower collar:
• Pull filter down from dust collector housing.
• Make sure that filter is straight and there are no folds or
creases.
• Bend and insert lower flex-ring of filter into upper collar
channel.
• Pull down on collar to make sure that flex-ring is entirely in

INSTALLATION
DANGER; Do not permit fingers to touch terminals of plug
when installing or removing the plug to or from the outlet.
WARNING: Do not connect to power source until unit is
completely assembled.
POWER SOURCE
• Motor is designed for operation on the voltage and fre
quency specified on motor nameplate.
• Normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not more
than 10% above or below the specified voltage.
• Running unit on voltages not within range may cause over
heating and motor burnout.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Refer to Figure 9.
• This tool is equipped with a 3-conductor cord.
• Do not remove or alter grounding prong in any manner. In
the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides
path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce risk
of electrical shock.
• Plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is proper
ly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
• The conductor with insulation having an outer surface
which is green is equipment grounding conductor. If repair
or replacement is necessary, make sure equipment
grounding conductor is not connected to line terminal.
• If power cord is worn, cut or damaged in any way, have it
replaced immediately.

EXTENSION CORDS
• The use of any extension cord will cause some drop in the
voltage and loss of power.
• Wires of the extension cord must be sufficient in size to
carry the current and maintain adequate voltage.
• Use the table below to determine the minimum wire size
(A.W.G.) extension cord.
• Use only 3-wire extension cords having 3-prong grounding
type plugs and 3-pole receptacles which accept the tool
plug.
• If extension cord is worn, cut or damaged in any way, have
it replaced immediately.
