“With the smoothest-running
impeller, best overall t and
nish, and superior dust l-
tration, this 3-hp cyclone was
the cream of the crop. Another
plus: it’s the second quietest,
below the threshold of poten-
tial hearing loss (85 dB).”
WOOD® Magazine - May 2013
In WOOD Magazine’s (May 2013)
Air Quality Test the Oneida V-Sys-
tem dust collector was the best at
keeping airborn dust levels lowest
in the wood shop.

c
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.
Caution
The Direct Drive Fan / Blower makes the system top heavy! Use extreme care when setting the unit
up! It is recommended that at least two people lift the system up.
Warning
Do not operate Fan / Blower unless Fan Housing is attached to Cyclone body and Dust Drum is in
place. Dust Drum and Cyclone must be in place and sealed or motor will overheat!
Warning
Check amperage draw on motor with all gates open. Current draw should not exceed maximum
motor amperage as stated on motor plate. (OAS is not responsible for damage to motors caused by
improper installation, wiring or failure to follow these directions.)

1. Place rubber leg caps on long end of leg.
2. Attach top gusset and mid-gusset to legs using 2” carriage
bolts then a washer and Nylock nut.
3. Attach the braces to the mid-gussets using the 3/4” car-
riage bolts and a washer and Nylock nut.
4. Attach cyclone cone to top gussets using the mounting ring
by 5/16”x 1” bolts using the sequence of bolt, washer, cone/
stand, washer, Whiz nut.
Stand Braces
Note: Stand legs will angle slightly inward when connected to
cyclone. This adds stability to the unit and makes a slightly larger
footprint than if the legs were perfectly vertical.

1. Push clips onto inside circle on Fan Housing, making sure clip is pushed all of the way on, that the bolt
holes are in alignment with the clip holes and that the small barrel on the clip is on the INSIDE of the Fan
Housing as shown in diagram.
2. Stick the gasket material around the Fan Housing as shown in the diagrams, outside of the bolt circle.
Making sure of a complete seal. Dust collection systems cannot operate effectively without being tightly
sealed with no air leaks.

2. Put included self-sticking gasket on top rim of cone.
Make sure there is NO gap where both ends of gasket
meet. This is VERY important for an air tight seal.
1. Assemble stand per Pg. 5. If using wall bracket, mount to
wall per Pg. 16.
3. Put cone on stand and attach with
provided 5/16” bolts in System Hard-
ware Kit as shown on page 4. Line
up the two corresponding holes in
the ring to the gussets. (Slots are for
mounting with a wall bracket.)
4. Attach U-Spring clips as
shown on Pg. 6 to top of Fan
Housing. Then apply gas-
ket as shown, making sure
the outlet is to your left as
you look down as shown in
diagram.
5. Carefully lift housing on top of cone keeping gasket
side up. (This is best done using two people.) Carefully
line up the holes in housing with the holes in the cone top,
keeping in mind the direction you want your outlet to face.
Then attach using provided 5/16” ange bolts and 5/16”
washers. Do not use over 17 ft. lbs. of torque. You will
need a sturdy step ladder for this.
6. Carefully lift motor assembly on top of housing. It is
very heavy and a two person job. Watch your ngers
when you lower the motor to the housing!
Parts of this procedure require at least two people
to complete. Use extreme caution and good sense
when assembling this unit. Parts of it are very heavy.

7. Line up the holes in housing with the holes in the motor
plate. Then attach using provided 5/16” ange bolts and
5/16” washers. You will need a sturdy step ladder for this.
8.Place gasket material around lter plate as shown in dia-
grams. You may have to partially cover the bolt holes. Just
make sure that there is enough room for the bolts to push
through. and that there is no gap where the ends meet.
10. Attach gasket to
housing outlet, making
sure there is no gap
where ends meet. You
may have to trim out
some gasket to ensure
that the bolt holes are
clear.

18. Plug in Magnetic Starter and you are ready to connect
your collector to your ductwork and go!
16. Distance between the drum lid and cone can vary.
Some systems have little space there to minimize overall
system height.
In some cases, the exible hose will have to be cut down
(especially with stands).
OAS ships 1’ of hose as standard but this is not necessarily
the needed length once the system is installed.
Tools Needed: Razor Knife / Diagonal Cutters
Measure length between drum lid and collar of cone.
Measure hose while it is extended (don’t overly compress
the hose). This allows the lid to move up when installed.
Cut the hose with razor knife and then cut the wire with
diagonal cutters. Don’t cut too short! If in doubt, cut a
little long. Trim if necessary.
12. Pull Silencer out straight
and place in top of lter,
pushing it down into lter until
top ring is ush with lter and
ts snugly within the gasket.
13, Put 4 J-hooks into lter plate as shown above and
loosely tighten with thumb nuts.
14. Hook J-hooks under metal rim of lter and evenly
tighten, making sure lter’s gasket is tightly sealed against
lter plate.
15. Put J-hooks through Dust Bin as shown and tighten
with Thumb Nuts, making sure you have an even seal
between the lter gasket and Dust Bin.
17. Connect short end of Filter Grounding Wire from motor
to plenum bolt as shown below and clamp alligator clip to
lter mesh.
