WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and
other masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed to fil
ter out microscopic particles.

Collection System
General
The Model G8027 is designed to be a singlemachine dust collector. Locate the dust collec
tor where it will not interfere with the workpiece
being processed, and no more than 10' of ducting
is used, otherwise the CFM will be reduced. To
solve dust collection questions, Grizzly offers a
guide book entitled Dust Collection Basics that
will help you design your system.
Whatever system you choose, always make sure
there are no open flames or pilot lights in the
same room as the dust collector. There is a risk
of explosion if dust is dispersed into the air.
Material Selection
You have many choices regarding dust collection
ducting, but flexible hose is the most common.
However, be aware that there is a fire or explo
sion hazard if plastic duct material is used for
dust collection without being grounded against
static electrical charge build-up.
and plastics. However, the cost of specifically
designed flexible duct can vary greatly. Grizzly
offers polyethylene hose, which is well suited for
the removal of particulate matter, especially saw
dust, since it is durable and completely flexible.
Polyethylene is also very economical and avail
-
able in a wide variety of diameters and lengths for
most applications.
-
-
Duct Grounding
Plastic flex-hose is an insulator, and dust particles
moving against the walls of the hose creates a
static electrical build up. This charge will build
until it discharges to a ground. If a grounding
medium is not available to prevent static electrical
build up, the electrical charge will arc to the nearest grounded source. This electrical discharge
may cause an explosion and subsequent fire
inside the system.
To protect against static electrical build up inside
a non-conducting duct, a bare copper wire should
-
be placed inside the duct along its length and
grounded to the dust collector. You must also
confirm that the dust collector is continuously
grounded through the electrical circuit to the elec
tric service panel.
-
Plastic Flexible Duct
Flexible rubber hose, polyethylene, plastic flexhose and other flexible ribbed hose is generally
used for short runs, small shops, and at rigid
duct-to-tool connections. There are many differ
ent types of flex hose on the market today. These
are manufactured from materials such as poly
ethylene, PVC, cloth hose dipped in rubber and
even metal, including steel and aluminum.
There are also many kinds of pure plastic flex
ible hose, such as non-perforated drainage type
hose and dryer vent hose. Drainage type hose,
while being economical, does not quite have the
flexibility required for dust collection. The inside
of the duct is also deeply corrugated and can
increase the static pressure loss by as much as
50% over smooth wall duct. Dryer vent hose,
while being completely flexible, is non-resistant
to abrasion and has a tendency to collapse in a
negative pressure system.
If using flex-hose, you should choose one of the
many types that are designed specifically for
the movement of solid particles, i.e. dust, grains
Always guard against

static electrical build up
by grounding all dust
collection lines.
-
G8027 1 HP Dust Collector -15-
Ensure that the entire system is grounded. If
using plastic blast gates to direct air flow, the
grounding wire must be jumped (
Figure 15)
around the blast gate without interruption to the
grounding system.
Plastic Blast Gate
We also recommend wrapping the outside of all
plastic ducts with bare copper wire to ground the
outside of the system against static electrical
build up. Wire connections at Y’s and T’s should
be made with wire nuts.
Attach the bare ground wire to each stationary
woodworking machine and attach the dust col
lector frame with a ground screw as shown in
Figure 16. Ensure that each machine is continuously grounded to the grounding terminal in your
electric service panel.

SECTION 4: OPERATION
Operation Safety
Disconnect power to the
machine when perform
ing any maintenance,
assembly or adjust
ments. Failure to do this
may result in serious
personal injury.
Keep loose clothing
rolled up and out of the
way of machinery and
keep hair pulled back.
Test Run
Once assembly is complete and adjustments are
done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test
run the machine.
-
-
Turn on the power supply at the main panel.
Turn the dust collector ON. Make sure that your
finger is poised on the toggle switch just in case
there is a problem. The dust collector should run
smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing
noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be
investigated and corrected before operating the
machine further.
If you cannot easily locate the source of an
unusual noise or vibration, contact our service
department for help.
General
Wear safety glasses during the entire operations
process. Failure to com
ply may result in serious
personal injury.
Always wear a respirator when operating
your dust collector. This
machine circulates saw
dust dust which may
cause allergic reactions
or respiratory problems.
-
Operating your Model G8027 is simple and
-
straightforward. Move the dust collector to the
machine location, connect the duct, connect the
ducting ground, and you are ready to begin.
DO NOT use the dust collector for any
other purpose besides collecting dust from
connected woodworking machines. A dust
collector should NEVER be used as an air
cleaner. For safest use, wear a respirator
and use an air cleaner in addition to the
dust collector.

SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE
!
Schedule
Disconnect power to the
machine when perform
ing any maintenance,
assembly or adjust
ments. Failure to do this
may result in serious
personal injury.
-
-
Regular periodic maintenance on your Model
G8027 Dust Collector will ensure its optimum
performance. Make a habit of inspecting your
machine each time you use it. Check for the
following conditions and repair or replace when
necessary:
1. Loose mounting bolts.
Keep loose clothing
rolled up and out of the
way of machinery and
keep hair pulled back.
Wear safety glasses during the entire operations
process. Failure to com
ply may result in serious
personal injury.
2. Worn switch.
3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs.
4. Any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this machine.
5. DO NOT let collection bags get completely
full.
-
Lubrication
Since all bearings are shielded and permanently
lubricated, simply leave them alone until they
need to be replaced. DO NOT lubricate them.
-20- G8027 1 HP Dust Collector
Bag Cleaning
Always wear a respirator or dust mask and safety
glasses when emptying the storage bag (
25). Small dust particles can escape the bags
during emptying, causing them to become air
borne and easily inhaled. This microscopic air
borne dust is extremely unhealthy to breathe and
can cause serious health problems.
Grizzly offers replacement collection bags
(G5051 and G5559) for your Model G8027 Dust
Collector.
Figure
To empty the collection bag:
1. Make sure you are wearing a respirator and
the dust collector is unplugged.
2. Un-clamp the collection bag and empty it.
-
-
3. Reinstall the collection bag.
While the Model G8027 excels at collecting the
majority of wood dust produced by your machines,
it is not an air filter; therefore, we strongly rec
ommend the supplemental aid of a shop air filter
such as the Grizzly G5955 or G9956. Air filters
are designed to collect the smaller dust particles
that a dust collector cannot trap.
