UST COLLECTION HOOK-UP KIT
D
This dust collection kit allows one woodworking machine to be connected to a dust collector within close proximity.
This kit includes: 1 – 10' section of 4" Flex-hose, 1 – Universal Dust Hood and 2 – Hose Clamps. If your dust collector
inlet port is larger than 4", you will need to reduce to 4". Refer to the heating and cooling section at your local hard
ware store for reducers.
Hood Set Up:
1. Attach the Universal Hood over your woodworking machine dust port with either double sided carpet tape, foam
mounting tape, or sheet metal screws. If using screws, pre-drill 4 screw holes in the hood flange. If your woodwork
ing machine does not have a dust port, it will be necessary to make a modification.

One type of modification requires an intermediate mounting adapter to decrease the dust port opening. The need for an
intermediate adapter is necessary for open frame contractor type table saws and whenever an opening must be reduced to
accommodate the Universal Hood. The intermediate adapter can be either a piece of thin plywood or sheet metal
with a hole cutout. The cutout should be sized smaller than the Universal hood flange so that the hood will surface
mount to the adapter.
A second modification type may require cutting a dust port hole in an enclosed stand where non exists. If cutting a
hole, locate it near the bottom of the compartment and away from the operator’s normal position. Surface mount
the Universal Hood over the hole with double sided carpet tape, foam mounting tape or screws.

Grounding:
2. It is important to properly ground your system against the risk of spark caused by static electricity. Since plastic is an
insulator, the movement of dry dust contacting the walls of the flex-hose will produce a static charge. This charge
may build and eventually arc to the nearest ground. The resulting spark may cause a fire or explosion. To protect
against static electric build-up, we strongly recommend the installation of an internal bare copper grounding wire
(available from Woodstock International dealers). Fish the wire through the flex-hose and connect one end to the
frame of your dust collector, making sure that metal to metal contact is made. Connect the other end to the frame
of your woodworking machine. Ensure that your dust collector and woodworking machine are electrically grounded
so that your machine frames provide a continuous ground for static electricity.

Hose Conenction:
3. Place a loosened wire hose clamp around one end of the flex-hose and slide the hose over the dust collector inlet
port. If the dust collector port is not 4", it will be necessary to provide a reducer of the correct size to make the
connection. Tighten the hose clamp with a screw driver to secure the flex-hose to the dust collector.
4. Place the second wire hose clamp around the free end of the flex-hose and slide the hose over the Universal Dust
Hood. Secure the wire clamp with a screw driver.
5. Now, assuming that all safety precautions are observed, you are now ready to collect the dust produced by your
woodworking machine.
