I. SystemStart-UpInformation
1. Read the installation and maintenance instructions as well as the recommended
safety practices in this manual.
2. Install Ductwork completely before operating collector:
A.) Seal ductwork with silicone sealant or duct tape.
B.) Have Dust Bin in place and sealed.
3. Have licensed electrician wire Fan / Blower according to wire diagram on pg. 12
in this owner’s manual.
4. Have licensed electrician check current draw on motor with all gates open. Current
draw should not exceed maximum motor amperage. (OAS is not responsible for
damage to motors caused by improper installation, wiring or failure to follow these
directions.)
Caution
The Direct Drive Fan / Blower makes the system top heavy!
Use extreme care when setting the unit up!
Warning
If amperage is too high - shut down immediately!
(See troubleshooting section.)
Warning
Do not operate Fan / Blower unless Cyclone and Dust Bin
are in place. Motor will over heat!
Warning
Check amperage draw during operation with all blast gates
open. Make certain amperage is not outside operating limit
indicated on motor plate!

VI. BracketAssembly
1. You must determine the direction the fan outlet will point to
proceed with this mounting assembly. The collector will seem
quieter if the outlet is aimed away from the area people tend to
work. Slots in the brackets are .406” x 1.00”
Note: Bolts included to mount bracket to collector. Hardware
NOT included to mount to wall.
2. Hold bracket against wall with top of plate at 56”. Mark where
mounting holes fall. Mount wall bracket. For wall mounting, the
bolt centers on the brackets are at 16”to accomodate most wall
stud spacing. See Fig. 1 & 2. Use a Level to ensure straightness.
3. Attach bracket to wall with lag screws, concrete anchors, or
other suitable hardware. See Fig. 2 & 3. Note: When installing
the brackets on a concrete wall, mount 2 x 4’s between wall and
brackets to stabilize and dampen vibration.
4. Position Angle Ring around top of cone over bracket. Line up
one hole in Ring with hole in each bracket at desired rotation of
outlet. If rotation you desire does not correspond to an existing
hole in Angle Ring, drill new ones. Use three 3/8” bolts (included)
with washers & lock washers to secure the fan. See Fig. 4.
5. Attach tightly with bolts. See Fig. 4.

and motor, additional square-to-round connectors and pipe
can be purchased.
*Silencer Included.
For Filter cleaning instructions, see pg. 11.
Caution:
If exhaust air is vented outside you must provide make up / return air.
Flue gases (carbon monoxide) can be drawn into the shop from furnaces,
water heaters or other appliances.
1. Exhaust air to exterior of building.
Mount directly at the hole in exterior
wall or use a square-to-round transition
and ductwork to vent air to exterior.

VIII.FilterMaintenance
External Filter Cartridge Cleaning Intervals
Caution: Fine dust collected in filter is hazardous
to your health! Do not breathe!
When unit is turned off, use compressed air to blow dust off from
exterior of filter. Hold nozzle at least 6” away from filter pleats*.
Do not remove bottom dust pan before or during the blow-off
process! Let dust settle into dust pan. Unclip and dump out dust.
Filter removal is not required.
* WARNING: A close, direct blast with the compressed air nozzle
too close to filter, may damage filter media. Always wear safety
glasses while blowing off filter.
Fan / Blower & Cyclone Outside Placement
Fan / Blower has a TEFC - Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled motor.
Note: Use steel drum when placed outside.
Before Operation:
Mount system and connect cyclone and dust bin. Make sure dust bin is in place before turning on the dust
collector.
Do not operate Fan / Blower unless Cyclone and Dust Bin are in place! Motor will overheat!
Electrical Wiring:
Make sure power source matches wire voltage configurations on motor.
Prior to connecting to the power line, check motor plate for proper voltage and rotation connection. Wire for
counter-clockwise rotation. Fan wheel must rotate counter-clockwise if looking down on fan housing.
Note: If fan is wired incorrectly and fan is rotating backwards, poor suction and airflow will result. See Wire
Diagrams on motor plate.
Use 12 gauge cord for the fan / blowers.
Lubrication:
The motor is supplied with pre-lubricated ball bearings, lubricated for the life of the bearing.
Caution: Rotating Fan Blades! Keep objects clear of outlet.
