WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grind-
ing, 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.

9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condi-
tion. Conductor size should be in accor-
dance with the chart below. The amperage
rating should be listed on the motor or tool
nameplate. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. Your extension
cord must also contain a ground wire and
plug pin. Always repair or replace exten-
sion cords if they become damaged.
Minimum Gauge for Extension Cords
10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. DO NOT
wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties,
rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may
get caught in moving parts. Non-slip
footwear is recommended. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also
use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have
impact resistant lenses, they are NOT
safety glasses.
12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to
hold work when practical. It is safer than
using your hand and frees both hands to
operate tool.
13. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times.
14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep
tools sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubri-
cating and changing accessories.
Safety Instructions for Power Tools
15. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the instruction manual for recom-
mended accessories. The use of improper
accessories may cause risk of injury.
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTION-
AL STARTING. On machines with mag-
netic contact starting switches there is a
risk of starting if the machine is bumped or
jarred. Always disconnect from power
source before adjusting or servicing. Make
sure switch is in OFF position before
reconnecting.
17. MANY WOODWORKING TOOLS CAN
“KICKBACK” THE WORKPIECE toward
the operator if not handled properly. Know
what conditions can create “kickback” and
know how to avoid them. Thoroughly read
the manual accompanying the machine.
18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before fur-
ther use of the tool, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function.
Check for alignment of moving parts, bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that
may affect its operation. A guard or other
part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced.
19. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT-
TENDED. TURN POWER OFF. DO NOT
leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
20. NEVER OPERATE A MACHINE WHEN
TIRED, OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF
DRUGS OR ALCOHOL. Full mental alert-
ness is required at all times when running
a machine.
21. NEVER ALLOW UNSUPERVISED OR
UNTRAINED PERSONNEL TO OPER-
ATE THE MACHINE. Make sure any
instructions you give in regards to the
operation of the machine are approved,
correct, safe, and clearly understood.

Additional Safety For Dust Collectors
5. DO NOT ALLOW STEEL TO STRIKE
AGAINST IMPELLER WHICH MAY PRO-
DUCE A SPARK. Sparks can smolder in
wood dust for a long time before fire or
flame is detected. If metal contacts metal
during operation, immediately turn off the
dust collector, unplug the power cord from
the outlet or flip the disconnect switch and
wait for all moving parts to stop. Remove
collection bags and empty the dust into an
approved air tight metal container in case of
spark. Remedy the metal to metal contact
problem before resuming operation.
6. WHEN EMPTYING DUST FROM THE
COLLECTION BAGS, wear a respirator
and safety glasses. Empty dust into an
approved container and dispose of properly.
7. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC-
ING DIFFICULTIES PERFORMING THE
INTENDED OPERATION, stop using the
machine! Then contact our service depart-
ment or ask a qualified expert how the oper-
ation should be performed.
8. BE AWARE THAT CERTAIN WOODS
MAY CAUSE AN ALLERGIC reaction in
people and animals, especially when
exposed to fine dust. Make sure you know
what type of wood dust you will be exposed
to in case there is a possibility of an allergic
reaction. Always wear an approved respira-
tor!
1. THIS DUST COLLECTOR IS TO BE USED
FOR WOOD DUST COLLECTION ONLY.
Do not use this dust collector to pick up liq-
uids and metal scrap including, but not lim-
ited to, nails and filings. Metallic debris will
contact the spinning impeller and could
spark. The spark could then cause a saw-
dust explosion and severe fire hazard. Also,
do not pick up material which cannot safely
pass through the impeller such as solid
wood scraps.
2. DO NOT PLACE YOUR HANDS OR
TOOLS NEAR THE OPEN INLET during
operation for any reason including, but not
limited to, unclogging material and testing
suction. The impeller could cause serious
damage to body parts if touched while spin-
ning.
3. PROBLEMS CONCERNED WITH ANY
MOVING PARTS or accessories must be
investigated and corrected with the power
disconnected and after everything has
come to a complete stop.
4. SUSPENDED DUST PARTICLES IN CON-
JUNCTION WITH AN IGNITION SOURCE,
may cause an explosion. Do not operate the
dust collector in areas where explosion risks
would be high if dust were dispersed into
the area. Areas of high risk include, but are
not limited to, areas near pilot lights and/or
open flames.
No list of safety guidelines can be com-
plete. Every shop environment is different.
Always consider safety first, as it applies to
your individual working conditions. Use
this and other machinery with caution and
respect. Failure to follow guidelines could
result in serious personal injury, damage to
equipment or poor work results.
DO NOT use the dust collector for any other
purpose besides collecting dust from con-
nected woodworking machines. A dust col-
lector 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.

directly to your panel, provided you place a dis-
connect near the machine. Check the electrical
codes in your area for specifics on wiring require-
ments. The motor is wired according to the dia-
gram in Figure 1a.

SECTION 3: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS

G0562 3 HP Dust Collector -7-
Electrocution or a fire
can result if the machine
is not grounded correct-
ly. Make sure all electri-
cal circuits are ground-
ed. DO NOT use the
machine if it is not
grounded.
We do not recommend the use of extension cords
with 220V equipment. Instead, arrange the place-
ment of your equipment and the installed wiring to
eliminate the need for extension cords. Should
the situation be necessary to use an extension,
make sure the cord is rated Standard Service
(grade S) or better. The extension cord must also
contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair
or replace extension cords when they become
worn or damaged.
NOTICE
The wire on the power cord with green or
green and yellow striped insulation is the
grounding conductor.
In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance to disperse electric cur-
rent. This tool is equipped with a power cord that
has an equipment-grounding prong. The outlet
must be properly installed and grounded in accor-
dance with all local codes and ordinances.
Always check to see if the wires in your circuit are
capable of handling the amperage draw from
your machine, as well as any other machines that
could be operating on the same circuit. If you are
unsure, consult a qualified electrician.
If the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows regu-
larly, your machine may be operating on a circuit
that is close to its amperage draw capacity.
However, if an unusual amperage draw does not
exist and a power failure still occurs, contact a
qualified electrician.

You have many choices regarding main line and
branch line duct material. In most commercial
workshops, the main line and branch lines are
usually metal duct. Flexible hose is then used to
connect each machine to the branch lines. In the
case of small home shops, flexible hose may be
used for both main line and branch line ducts.
Plastic duct is also a popular material for home
shops. Please be aware that there is a fire or
explosion hazard if plastic duct material is used
for dust collection without being grounded
against static electrical charge build-up. This
topic will be discussed later in the manual.
METAL DUCT
Metal duct comes in many varieties. Stove pipe,
heating/ventilation duct and duct made especial-
ly for dust collection are all options. Advantages
of metal duct is its conductivity and that it does
not contribute to static electrical charge build-up.
However, static charges are still produced when
dust particles strike other dust particles as they
move through the duct. Since metal duct is a
conductor, it can be grounded quite easily to dis-
sipate any static electrical charges. However,
metal duct is generally more expensive than
plastic duct and it is not usually airtight unless
specifically manufactured for dust collection.
Specially manufactured metal duct, on the other
hand, is quite expensive. Metal duct is also gen-
erally more difficult to cut and assemble.
FLEXIBLE HOSE
Flexible rubber hose, polyethylene, plastic flex-
hose and other flexible ribbed hose is generally
used for short runs, small shops and at rigid duct-
to-tool connections. There are many different
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.
The Model G0562 can be operated as either a
stationary or a mobile unit. There are advantages
and disadvantages to both set-ups. The advan-
tage of the mobile system is eliminating the cost
of many ducts and fittings. On the other hand, the
stationary system is more versatile and conve-
nient.
The Model G0562 is designed to be a central
dust collector system. Locate the dust collector in
an out of the way location such as a corner or
separate room. The dust collector is capable of
collecting dust from up to two machines running
simultaneously. Because of the large suction
capacity of the Model G0562, great flexibility is
possible in the planning and designing of your
dust collection duct layout. Grizzly offers a com-
plete line of dust collection accessories for setting
up a stationary system. Additionally, Grizzly
offers a guide book entitled Dust Collection
Basics.
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.
