3.3 Additional Safety Instructions
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 NIOSHapproved respirator to reduce your risk.
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 NIOSHapproved 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.
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.
Warning: If precautions are not heeded, it may result in minor injury and/or possible machine damage.
Warning: 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.

Maintenance procedures

CLEANING THE FILTER
To ensure proper operation of this Mobile Dust Cyclone, the HEPA canister filter must have adequate air flow. This means the filter must be regularly maintained by carefully blowing the filter clean using compressed air and an air gun to release built-up particulates trapped between the filter pleats.
For heavy duty users, it is recommended to use compressed air on a regular basis to maintain maximum filtration efficiency and longer life span of the filter.
Using the Filter Cleaner Crank and Compressed Air
DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
The filter cleaner crank knocks dust particulate and small debris from the pleated filter and into the filter bag. To improve the effectiveness of the paddles, slowly rotate the handle while simultaneously blowing (from outside – in) into the pleats. This will assist the release of fine dust from the inside of the pleats. NOTE: using the blowing function (hose connected to exhaust port) of a vacuum can also help dislodge dust.
To keep your machine in good working condition, it is recommended to use the filter cleaner crank to clean the filter after every use.
To clean the filter using the crank simply rotate the crank handle clockwise four or five rotations.
NOTE : Excessive turning of the filter cleaner crank or fast turning will prematurely wear the interior of the pleated filter.

REMOVING THE CANISTER FILTER

1. Release the spring-loaded band clamp at the bottom of the canister filter and remove the plastic debris bag.
2. Remove the bolt and washer from the bottom, center of the flap pivot assembly using a 12mm wrench.
3. While supporting the canister filter assembly from the bottom, release the spring-loaded band clamp from the top of the canister filter assembly.Hold canister from bottom when releasing clamp (top)Disassembling canister for cleaning
4. Remove the canister filter by carefully lowering the canister. Be careful to tilt the top of canister, if necessary, to clear the paddle branches.
5. With the canister filter removed use a compressed air gun to thoroughly clean between the pleats, both inside and outside.

RE-ASSEMBLING THE CANISTER FILTER AFTER CLEANING

1. With the aid of another person, carefully re-insert the canister filter repeating step 1,2,3 and 4 in reverse.
   EMPTYING OR REPLACING THE FILTER BAG
   Periodically check the filter bag, if it is more than one third full, it is recommended that you empty it.

NOTE : If the filter bag gets too full, the weight may force it to pull away from the band clamp, exposing the user to potentially harmful particulates.

1. Release the spring-loaded band clamp at the bottom of the filter and remove the filter bag.
2. Empty or replace the filter bag and re-attach using the spring-loaded band clamp.

EMPTYING THE DRUM
Periodically inspect the contents of the drum and empty as needed. To inspect the contents of the drum:

1. Raise the drum foot peddle bar to lower the drum to the floor.
2. Roll it away from the machine, inspect and empty as needed.

ROUTINE INSPECTION
It is a good idea to routinely inspect all quality woodworking tools in order to keep them in optimum condition. This includes inspecting all hardware for tightness, ensuring filters are clean, and cleaning debris and grime from any surfaces and moving parts.
