IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS AND OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS EQUIPMENT. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below, may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury or property
damage.
Woodworking can be dangerous if safe and proper operating procedures are not followed.
As with all machinery, there are certain hazards involved with the operation of the product.
Using the machine with respect and caution will considerably lessen the possibility of
personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, personal
injury to the operator may result. Safety equipment such as guards, push sticks, hold-
downs, featherboards, goggles, dust masks and hearing protection can reduce your
potential for injury. But even the best guard won’t make up for poor judgment,
carelessness or inattention. Always use common sense and exercise caution in the
workshop. If a procedure feels dangerous, don’t try it. Figure out an alternative procedure
that feels safer. REMEMBER: Your personal safety is your responsibility.
This machine was designed for certain applications only. We
strongly recommend that this machine not be modified and/or used for any application
other than that for which it was designed. If you have any questions relative to a
particular application, DO NOT use the machine until you have first contacted the

ADDITIONAL SAFETY FOR DUST COLLECTORS
Intended use. This dust collector is only intended for collecting wood dust and chips from
woodworking machines. Do not use this dust collector to collect metal, dirt, pebbles,
drywall, asbestos, lead paint, silica, liquids, aerosols, or any flammable, combustible, or
hazardous materials.
Hazardous dust. Dust created while using machinery may cause cancer, birth defects, or
long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust hazards associated with each work piece
material, and always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to reduce your risk.

1.5HP Mobile Dust Cyclone Manual
7
Dust allergies. Dust from certain woods may cause an allergic reaction in people and
animals.
Make sure you know what type of wood dust you will be exposed to in case there is a
possibility of an allergic reaction.
Wear respirator. Fine dust that is too small to be caught in the filter will be blown into
the ambient air during operation. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator during
operation and for a short time after to reduce your risk of permanent respiratory damage.
Emptying dust. When emptying dust from the collection container, wear a respirator and
safety glasses. Empty dust away from ignition sources and into an approved container.
Disconnecting power supply. Turn the switch off, disconnect the dust collector from the
power supply, and allow the impeller to come to a complete stop before leaving the
machine unattended or doing any service, cleaning, maintenance, or adjustments.
Suspended dust particles and ignition sources. Do not operate the dust collector in
areas were explosion risks are high. Areas of high risk include, but are not limited to,
areas near pilot lights, open flames, or other ignition sources.
Fire suppression. Only operate the dust collector in locations that contain a fire
suppression system or have a fire extinguisher nearby.
Impeller hazards. Do not place your hands or tools near the open inlet during operation
for any reason. The powerful suction could easily cause accidental contact with the
impeller, which will
cause serious personal injury or damage to the machine. Always keep small animals and
children away from open dust collection inlets.
Avoiding sparks. Do not allow steel or rocks to strike the impeller—this may produce
sparks.
Sparks can smolder in wood dust for a long time before a fire is detected. If you
accidentally cut
Into wood containing tramp metal (nails, staples, spikes, etc.), immediately turn off the
dust collector, disconnect it from power, and wait for the impeller to stop—then empty the
collection container into an approved airtight metal container.
Operating location. To reduce respiratory exposure to fine dust, locate permanently
installed dust collectors away from the working area, or in another room that is equipped
with a smoke detector. Do not operate the dust collector in rainy or wet locations—
exposure to water may create a shock hazard or decrease the life of the machine.
Static electricity. Plastic dust lines generate high amounts of static electricity as dust
chips pass through them. Although rare, sparks caused by static electricity can cause
explosions or fire. To reduce this risk, make sure all dust lines are thoroughly grounded by
using a grounding wire.

1.5HP Mobile Dust Cyclone Manual
8
Regular cleaning. Regularly check/empty the collection bags or drum to avoid the
buildup of fine dust that can increase the risk of fire. Make sure to regularly clean the
surrounding area where the machine is operated—excessive dust buildup on overhead
lights, heaters, electrical panels, or other heat sources will increase the risk of fire.
This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in minor injury and/or
possible machine damage.
This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in serious injury or possibly
even death.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Refer to them often and use them to instruct others.

MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS
Your machine is wired for 240volts, 50 HZ alternating current. Before connecting the
machine to the power source, make sure the switch is in the "OFF" position.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
THIS MACHINE MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT
THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.
1. This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system; or
an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected
to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.
The installer, such as a qualified electrician, cut (or bend over) and insulate the grounding
conductor from a field wiring supply cable.
In the event of certain types of malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current—in order to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding wire can result in a risk of electric shock.
The wire with green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment-grounding
wire. If repair or replacement of the power cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the
equipment-grounding wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you do not understand these
grounding requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether the tool is properly
grounded. If you ever notice that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, disconnect it from
power, and immediately replace it with a new one.
