 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 port. Hazardous moving parts inside. Unplug
machine before removing hose.
17. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities
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 and other masonry products, 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 components. 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.

Grounding Instructions
Caution: This tool must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock.
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor, with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes, is the
equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only three wire extension
cords that have three-prong grounding plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
115 Volt Operation
As received from the factory, your dust collector is ready to run at 115 volt operation. This dust collector,
when wired for 115 volts, is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet and a plug that looks the one
illustrated in Figure A. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter as illustrated in Figure B, may
be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle, as shown in Figure B if a properly grounded outlet
is not available. The temporary adapter should only be used until a properly grounded outlet can be
installed by a qualified electrician. This adapter is not applicable in Canada. The green colored rigid
ear, lug, or tab, extending from the adapter, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box, as shown in Figure B.

5
230 Volt Operation
If 230V, single phase operation is desired, the following instructions must be followed:
1. Disconnect the machine from the power source.
2. This dust collector is supplied with four motor leads that are connected for 115V operation, as shown
in Figure A. Reconnect these four motor leads for 230V operation, as shown in Figure B.
3. The 115V attachment plug supplied with the dust collector must be replaced with a UL/CSA listed
plug suitable for 230V operation. Contact your local Authorized JET Service Center or qualified
electrician for proper procedures to install the plug. The dust collector must comply with all local and
national codes after the 230V plug is installed.
4. The dust collector with a 230V plug should only be connected to an outlet having the same
configuration. No adapter is available or should be used with the 230V plug.
Important: In all cases (115 or 230 volts), make certain the receptacle in question is properly
grounded. If you are not sure, have a registered electrician check the receptacle.

 WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury from moving
parts, always keep inlet connected to a
flexible hose. Failure to comply may result
in serious injury!
Electrical Connections
 WARNING
All electrical connections must be done by a
qualified electrician. All adjustments or
repairs must be done with the dust collector
disconnected from the power source,
unplugged. Failure to comply may result in
serious injury!
The DC-650C dust collector is rated at
115/230V, Prewired 115V. 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 circuit being used by other machines,
tools, lights, heaters, etc. at the same time will
add to the electrical load. A dedicated circuit 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 Machine 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 flipping
the start switch up. Flip the switch down to turn
the dust collector off. There is a removable key
that can be used to lock the machine in the
“OFF” position.
Maintenance
 WARNING
Never perform maintenance on this machine
before turning switch off and removing plug
from power source, unplug.
Failure to comply may cause serious injury!
Cleaning the Filter
Clean both the filter and collector bag 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.
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.
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.
