quired. In addition to the following instructional manual, care should be
taken to ensure compliance with specic safety requirements mandated
by federal, state and local codes.

External Filter Cartridge Cleaning Intervals
Cleaning Procedures for HEPA Filters
Gasket Repair / Replacement
Remove lter from collector. Hold nozzle at least 6” away from
lter pleats* Wear a mask, safety glasses and do it outside.
A hand-held compressed air nozzle should be used to backush (with 30 - 60 psi air) by running the nozzle up and down the
exterior of the lter cartridges. If a residue on the inside (ePTFE membrane side) of the lter cartridge remains, low velocity
compressed air may be used directly on the inside, but care must be taken not to damage the membrane.
If there is signicant backside blinding, compressed air may be used. However, forcing the dust further into the media from
the backside is likely.
Wahing the lter cartridge with a high pressure water jet or stream is not recommended. Washing in place must be done
only after air cleaning and with no greater than 40 psi water, unassisted by a nozzle or jet acceleration. A water force similar
to a soft garden spray attachment is appropriate. Filter must be thoroughly dry before using again.
Gaskets may become loose over time and should be repaired or replaced as follows:
1. Remove the gasket completely. Excess adhesive should be removed from the endcap.
2. Roughen the surface of the endcap where the gasket attaches with an emery cloth.
3. Clean the gasket and endcap with isoprpyl alcohol to remove residue.
4. Apply liquid silicone (GE RTV-118) to the endcap and attach the gasket.
5. Apply a small bead of silicone (GE IS808) to ID and OD of the gasket.
6. Allow the silicone adhesive to cure a minimum of 24 hours before using the lter.
*WARNING: A close, direct blast with the compressed air nozzle
too close to lter, may damage lter media. Always wear safety
glasses and mask while blowing off lter.
Caution: Fine dust collected in lter is hazardous
to your health! Do not breathe!

Assembly Instructions for Wall Bracket
1. Before you attach the wall bracket to the wall, you must
determine the proper height the collector has to be hung at.
This height will be determined by the height of the dust drum
you are using.
2. There are two ways to attach your collector to a stud-
ded wall. You can either attach a sturdy board between two
studs and then attach the wall bracket to the board or using
the center slots, attach the wall bracket to a single stud in
the wall. Use the appropriate hardware to hold the bracket
to the wall. The collector and wall bracket are heavy. Make
sure the bracket is level when it is attached.
3. The collector can only be attached to the wall bracket
with the cyclone inlet in front as shown in picture. Line up
the holes in the cyclone support ring with the slots in the top
of the wall bracket and use the provided bolts, two washers
and nut to attach the collector to the bracket through the
three slots in the bracket.
*Note: A spacer may be needed between the bracket and
the support wall so the ex hose from the bottom of the
cyclone lines up with the dust drum opening.

7. Cyclone should be mounted to mobile stand. Carefully,
with help, ip cyclone cone right-side up and proceed with
assembly of Motor / Fan Wheel to the top of the Cyclone
using the instructions from the previous page.
5. Put wheel through front tab on bottom of tray then reas-
semble wheel unit with washer, PVC spacer, Rubber spacer
and knurled nut. Tighten nut to expand rubber spacer so wheel
ts snugly in front leg.
6. Put assembly in leg then tighten nut above tab with wrench

1. Start with Cone. Do not attach motor until the cart is fully as-
sembled.
3. Put end cap on axle then put on wheel / washer / through
the eye bolt / washer then through the tubes on the bottom
of the tray as shown in diagram below, then repeat on the
other side.
2. Before you attach the legs to the bracket, you must put end
caps in all of the legs. To do this, start with the front bent leg.
Screw an eye bolt into the end cap as shown above then gently
with a hammer, hit the eye bolt to force the end cap evenly into
the leg end until it is ush and centered. Remove the eye bolt
from the front leg and repeat this procedure with the straight
back legs, leaving the bolts in the end caps. The axle goes
through the back leg eye bolts.
Using the provided longer bolts, attach the legs to the brackets,
then put the bracket and leg on the underside of cone ring as
shown and attach with the shorter bolts. Make sure the bent leg
is in front and the straight legs with the eye bolts are in the back.

VII. Fan Motor Maintenance - for 1.5hp Industrial Motor only
Per Baldor specications, their 2 pole motors (3600 RPM) motors are to be relubricated every 5500 hours.
Grease Fittings Locations
Procedure
Clean the grease tting (or area around grease hole, if equipped with slot-
ted grease screws). If motor has a purge plug, remove it. Motors can be
re-greased while stopped (at less than 80 C) or running. Apply grease gun to
tting (or grease hole). Too much grease or injecting grease too quickly can
cause premature bearing failure. Slowly apply the recommended amount of
grease, taking 1 minute or so to apply. Operate motor for 20 minutes, rein-
stall purge plug if previously removed. Caution: Keep grease clean. Mixing
dissimilar grease is not recommended.
