WARNING
1. Read and understand the entire contents of this manual before attempting assembly or
operation. Do not use this machine until proper training and knowledge has been obtained.
2. Do not leave Dust Collector when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before
servicing.
3. Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
4. Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used near children.
5. Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
6. Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If Dust Collector is not working as it should, has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoor, or dropped in water, return it to a service center.
7. Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp
edges or corners. Do not run Dust Collector over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
8. Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
9. Do not handle plug or Dust Collector with wet hands.
10. Do not put any objects into the openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust,
lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.
11. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from opening and moving parts.
12. Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
13. Do not use without dust bag and/or filters in place.
14. Turn off all controls before unplugging.
15. Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they
may be present.
16. Do not operate without hose connected to the inlet ports or covered by an inlet cap. Hazardous
moving parts inside. Unplug machine before removing inlet port, inlet cap, hose, or inlet guard.
17. Use the inlet caps to cover the inlet port openings that are not connected to hoses.
18. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling andother constructionactivities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead based paint
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement andother masonryproducts, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
19. Your risk from those 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 specifically designed to filter out microscopic
particles
20. Do not operate tool while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.
21. Make sure the extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use
one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersize cord will cause a drop
in the line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller gauge number, the heavier the cord.
22. Do not use dust collector for anything except wood dust. Materials such as liquids, metal shavings,
metal dust, screws, glass, plastic or rock can cause sparks and/or damage when coming into
contact with any part of the dust collector.
23. Ground your dust collector along all plastic componets. The connection of bare 12 gauge copper
wire on all plastic hoses, fittings and blast gates to all machines will help reduce the occurrence of
static build up and discharge.

Electrical Connections
WARNING
All electrical connections must be done by a
qualified electrician. A ll adjustments or
repairs must be done with the dust collector
disconnected from the power source,
unplugged. Failure to comply may result in
serious injury!
Removing the Collector Bag
CAUTION
Wearing a particle mask/respirator for
protection against fine dust particles during
cleaning is highly recommended.
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source, unplug.
The DC-1900-1 dust collector is rated at 230V
Only and is not supplied with a plug. Use a
plug and outlet rated at least 20 amps. The
circuit for the machine should also be protected
by at least a 20 amp circuit breaker or fuse.
Keep in mind that a curcuit being used by other
machines, tools, lights, heaters, etc. at the same
time will add to the electrical load. A dedicated
curcuit to the dust collector will give you the
best results since dust collectors are generally
used at the same time other tools are running.
Before hooking up to the power source, make
sure that the switch is in the off position.
Turning the M achine On & Off
Before hooking up to the power source, make
sure that the switch is in the off position.
The dust collector can be turned on by pressing
the start button mounted next to the motor.
Press the stop button to turn off the dust
collector.
Maintenance
WARNING
Never perform maintenace on this machine
before turning switch off and removing plug
from power source, unplug.
Failure to comply may cause serious injury!
2. Remove the collector bag by pushing the
ring of the collector bag upwards at an angle
and pulling the bag and snap ring out.
3. Empty the contents into an appropriate
container.
4. See Page 8 for details on replacing the
collector bags.
Motor
Make frequent inspections of the motor fan and
blow out (with low pressure air hose) or vacuum
any accumulation of foreign material in order to
maintain normal motor ventilation.
Connecting the Dust collector to a
Machine
Use the proper type hose to connect the dust
collector to the machine being operated. Dryer
vent hose is not acceptable for this purpose.
Contact your nearest JET distributor for the full
line of JET Dust Collector Hoses and
Accessories. Customize your installation and
obtain maximum performance with JET's dust
hoods, hoses, clamps, fittings, and blast gates.
You can also purchase the JET “Dust Collection
Basics Video” stock # JW1050V through your
JET Distributor
Cleaning the Filter
Clean both the filter and collector bags
frequently to keep the collector's performance at
its optimum.
To clean the filter turn the handle a couple
rotations so the dust falls into the collector bag.
Grounding the Dust Collection System
The dust collection system includes the dust
collector and the hose, or duct work you use to
connect the tools. The dust collector is grounded
though the ground wire in the cord. The hose or
duct work you use to connect the tool to the dus t
collector must also be grounded. To assist in
grounding your system you can purchase the JET
“Dust Collector Grounding Kit” stock # JW1053,
and also the JET “Dust Collection Basics Video”
stock # JW1050V through JET Distributors.
