System Start-Up Information
 WARNING 
1. READ and understand ALL instructions and warning labels BEFORE using the dust collector.
2. REPLACE warning labels if they become obscured or removed.
3. ALWAYS follow all applicable federal, state, local, OSHA, NFPA, or authorities having jurisdiction codes and
regulations when installing and operating this dust collector.
4. ENSURE that all users of this dust collector are informed of all warnings and precautions, safe use, and maintenance
procedures.
5. FULL mental alertness is required. e machine is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge.
6. DO NOT allow use by or near children.
7. DO NOT allow it to be used as a toy.
8. NEVER leave the dust collector running while unattended.
9. TURN OFF and UNPLUG the dust collector BEFORE walking away, servicing, or cleaning. Allow the fan blower
motor to come to a COMPLETE STOP before walking away or performing any maintenance, service, cleaning, or
adjustments. is eliminates the risk of injury from unintended startup or contact with live electrical components.
10. ENSURE that your dust collector is turned OFF and UNPLUGGED during installation. is eliminates the risk of
injury from unintended startup or contact with live electrical components.
11. COMPLETELY INSTALL ductwork/ex hose before operating collector.
a. Seal ductwork with silicone sealant or duct tape if leaks are found.
b. Have dust drum in place and sealed.
c. NEVER operate without lter and cowling in place. is machine has high speed rotating elements than can cause
severe injury.
12. ONLY use the dust collector for its intended purpose as described in this manual. DO NOT force it or an attachment
to do a job for which it was not designed. Consult this owner’s manual or reach out for recommended accessories.
13. ENSURE enough air volume is at the suction point to capture all the particulate generated.
14. NEVER make modications without prior approval from Oneida Air Systems. Modifying the dust collector or using
it dierently than intended will void the warranty and may result in malfunction or mechanical failure that leads to
serious personal injury or death! DO NOT allow use as a toy.
Before Purchasing or installing a dust collection system the process owners/operators
are cautioned to do so in accordance with prescribed Federal, State, Local, OSHA, NFPA,
and any other applicable codes or regulations relating to the type of dust(s) you are
collecting.
This manual contains specific precautionary statements relative to worker safety. Read
thoroughly and comply as directed. The most up to date safety information can be found
on our website: oneida-air.com/safety

System Start-Up Information (Continued)
15. DO NOT locate or operate the system in moist, wet, poorly lit, or cluttered environments. Operating in these areas
can create shock hazards, increase the risks of accidents and injury, and/or lower the operating lifespan of the dust
collector.
16. DO NOT install in classied hazardous atmospheres without an enclosure rated for the application. System location
must account for wind, seismic zone, and other load conditions. Codes may regulate acceptable locations for installing
dust collectors. Consult with the appropriate authorities having jurisdiction to ensure compliance with all national
and local codes regarding dust collector installation. Equipment must be anchored in a manner consistent with local
code requirements. Anchors must be sucient to support dead, live, seismic, and other anticipated loads. Consult a
qualied engineer for nal selection of anchorage.
17. ENSURE exhaust air is properly vented. It should NOT be vented into a wall, a ceiling, or a concealed space of a
building. Personal injury, death, and/or property damage can result from material discharge during venting. e risk of
personal injury and/or property damage can be minimized or avoided by locating vented equipment outside buildings
and away from normally occupied areas. 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.
18. INSPECT and MAINTAIN REGULARLY. Keep the dust collector in proper working order. A machine that isn’t
properly maintained, not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, le outdoors, or dropped in water could
malfunction leading to serious personal injury or death!
19. AVOID CORD DAMAGE. DO NOT pull or carry by cord. DO NOT use cord as handle. DO NOT unplug by pulling
on cord. To unplug, grab the plug, NOT the cord. DO NOT close door on cord or pull cord around sharp edges or
corners. DO NOT run dust collector over cord. DO NOT handle cord/plug with wet hands. Keep cord away from
heated surfaces. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualied persons in order to avoid a hazard.
20. ALWAYS check for damaged parts. A part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Immediately repair or replace damaged or mis-adjusted parts before
operating machine.
21. DO NOT put any object in openings. DO NOT use with any opening blocked. (Except when pulsing - See
Maintenance Section for more information.)
22. ALWAYS wear a NIOSH approved respirator when emptying dust bins and during operation. Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other long-term respiratory damage.
23. ALWAYS keep hair, loose clothing, ngers, and all parts of body AWAY from openings and moving parts.
24. ALWAYS wear ANSI-approved safety glasses or a face shield when operating or observing machinery and when
emptying dust bin.
25. ALWAYS wear hearing protection during extended periods of operation.

System Start-Up Information (Continued)
1. THIS UNIT IS NOT RATED FOR USE IN COMBUSTIBLE ENVIRONMENTS.
2. DO NOT operate the dust collector in areas where explosion risks are high. Areas of high risk include, but are not
limited to, areas near pilot lights, open ames, or other ignition sources.
3. ONLY operate dust collector in locations that include a re suppression system or have a re extinguisher available
nearby.
a. e ABC type (dry chemical) is generally a good choice for small wood shops.
b. Additional information on portable extinguishers can be found in NFPA 10 (Standard for Portable Fire
Extinguishers).
4. DO NOT allow accumulation of layers of ne dust on horizontal surfaces. Especially overhead lights, electrical boxes
and fuse panels which can ignite dust. Keep the oor around the system clean and free of scrap material, oil, grease.
5. ENSURE all equipment and ductwork is electrically grounded.
6. DO NOT use PVC drain pipe.
7. ALWAYS consult an electrician or qualied service personnel about wiring practices and electrical codes in your area.
ONLY allow an electrician or qualied service personnel to do electrical installation or repair work.
8. ALWAYS disconnect power before accessing or exposing electrical equipment. Improper wiring can cause re,
electrocution, injury, or death.
9. DO NOT use to pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
10. DO NOT use to pick up liquids, ammable liquids, or combustible liquids, such as gasoline, or use in areas where they
may be present.
11. DO NOT use excessively large wood waste bins. Wood dust mixtures are highly ammable and can be explosive
12. ALWAYS check your dust bin for smoldering materials before leaving the shop.
13. NEVER introduce sparks or sources of ignition into the dust collector. Sparks can be generated in several ways:
a. High speed sanders, abrasive planers, saws, and edgers may strike foreign material and create a red-hot metal
fragment.
 FIRE HAZARDS 
Process owners/operators retain all responsibility for the suitability of fire and explosion
hazard mitigation, suppression, and isolation strategies and to follow all applicable
federal, state, local, OSHA, NFPA, or authorities having jurisdiction codes and regulations
when installing and operating this dust collector.
Improper operation of a dust control system may contribute to conditions in the work
area or facility that could result in severe personal injury and product or property
damage.
Oneida Air Systems assumes no responsibility or liability for the suitability of any fire and/
or explosion mitigation strategy, or any items incorporated into a collector as part of an
owner/operators hazard mitigation strategy.

System Start-Up Information (Continued)
b. Knots in hardwood can create frictional sparks.
c. Trapped metal, when drawn into the dust collection system, can spark against ductwork.
d. Check wood stock for old nails and screws which can create red-hot metal fragments.
14. DO NOT overload woodworking equipment, especially sanders, as excessive frictional heat can spontaneously ignite
dust. Sanders can produce concentrations of dust well into the combustible range.
15. ALWAYS check that all dust collection equipment is properly selected and sized for the intended use. Authorities with
jurisdiction should be consulted before installing to verify local codes and installation procedures. In the absence
of such codes, install collector according to the National Electric Code, NFPA No. 70-latest edition and NFPA 91,
NFPA664 Code (NFPA 654 if combustible dust is present).
