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 workpiece material, and always wear a NIOSH-approved 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 NIOSH approved 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.
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.

sUspended dUst particles and ignition soUrces. 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 flames, or other ignition sources.
Fire sUppression. Only operate 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 pull them into 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 an 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.

ELECTRICAL

Circuit Requirements
This machine must be connected to the correct size and type of power supply circuit, or fire or electrical damage may occur. Read through this section to determine if an adequate power supply circuit is available. If a correct circuit is not available, a qualified electrician MUST install one before you can connect the machine to power.

The machine must be properly set up before it is safe to operate. DO NOT connect this machine to the power source until instructed to do so later in this manual.

A power supply circuit includes all electrical equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel in the building and the machine. The power supply circuit used for this machine must be sized to safely handle the fullload current drawn from the machine for an extended period of time. (If this machine is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)
Full-Load Current Rating
The full-load current rating is the amperage a machine draws at 100% of the rated output power. On machines with multiple motors, this is the amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all motors and electrical devices that might operate at one time during normal operations.
W1666 Full-Load Current Rating at 220V……… 12 Amps W1685 Full-Load Current Rating at 110V ……… 16 Amps
W1666 Circuit Requirements for 220V
This machine is prewired to operate on a 220V power supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets the following requirements:

ELECTRICAL

Model W1666/W1685 (For Machines Mfd. Since 2/15)

Grounding Requirements
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event of certain types of malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to travel–in order to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding wire will increase the risk of electric shock. The wire with green insulation (with/without yellow stripes) is the equipmentgrounding wire. If repair or replacement of the power cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipmentgrounding wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you do not understand these grounding requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, disconnect it from power, and immediately replace it with a new one.
For W1666 220V Connection
A NEMA 6-15 plug has a grounding prong that must be attached to the equipment- grounding wire inside the included power cord. The plug must only be inserted into a matching receptacle (see Figure 1) that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes.
For W1685 110V Connection
A NEMA 5-15 plug has a grounding prong that must be attached to the equipment- grounding wire inside the included power cord. The plug must only be inserted into a matching receptacle (see Figure 2) that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes.
Extension Cords
We do not recommend using an extension cord with this machine. Extension cords cause voltage drop, which may damage electrical components and shorten motor life. Voltage drop increases with longer extension cords and smaller gauge sizes (higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must contain a ground wire, match the required plug and receptacle, and meet the following requirements:
Minimum Gauge Size …………………………… 12 AWG Maximum Length (Shorter is Better) …………….50 ft.

DESIGNING THE SYSTEM

General
This dust collector can be operated as either a stationary, central dust collector or a mobile unit. There are advantages and disadvantages to both setups. The advantage of the mobile system is eliminating the cost of many ducts and fittings. On the other hand, the stationary system is more efficient and customizable.
If using this dust collector as a stationary system, put the dust collector in an out-of-the way location such as a corner or separate room. The dust collector is capable of collecting dust from up to two machines running simultaneously. Woodstock offers a complete line of dust collection accessories for setting up a stationary, central dust collector system. Additionally, Woodstock offers a complete guide book entitled Dust Collection Basics (refer to Page 30 for additional details).

Always guard against static electric build-up by grounding all dust collection lines.

Whatever system you choose, always make sure there are no open flames or pilot lights in the same room as the dust collector. There is a risk of explosion if dust is dispersed into the air.

Duct Material
You have many choices regarding main line and branch line duct material. For best results, use metal duct for the main line and branch lines, then use short lengths of flexible hose to connect each machine to the branch lines.
Plastic duct is also a popular material for home shops. However, be aware that there is a fire or explosion hazard if plastic duct material is used for dust collection without being grounded against static electrical charge build-up. This topic will be discussed later in this section. Another problem with using plastic is that it is less efficient per foot than metal.

Plastic Duct
The popularity of plastic duct is due to the fact that it is an economical and readily available product. It is also simple to assemble and easily sealed against air loss. The primary disadvantage of plastic duct for dust collection is the inherent danger of static electrical build-up.
Metal Duct
Advantages of metal duct is its conductivity, efficiency, and that it does not contribute to static electrical charge build-up. However, static charges are still produced when dust particles strike other dust particles as they move through the duct. Since metal duct is a conductor, it can be grounded quite easily to dissipate any static electrical charges.
There are a number of options when it comes to metal duct, but metal duct that is specially manufactured for dust collection is the best choice. When selecting your metal duct, choose high quality metal duct with smooth welded internal seams that will minimize airflow resistance. This type of duct usually connects to other ducts or elbows with a simple, self-sealing clamp, is very quick and easy to assemble, and can be readily dismantled and re- installed. This is especially important if you ever need to change things around in your shop or add more tools.
Avoid inferior metal duct that requires you to cut it to length and snap it together. This type of duct is time consuming to install because it requires you to seal all the seams with silicone and screw the components on the ends with sheet metal screws. Another disadvantage is the rough internal seams and crimped ends that unavoidably increase static pressure loss.

Plastic duct generates static electrical build-up that can cause fire or shock. Properly ground all plastic duct to reduce this risk.

Flexible Duct
Flexible hose is generally used for short runs, small shops and at rigid duct- to-tool connections. There are many different types of flex hose on the market today. These are manufactured from materials such as polyethylene, PVC, cloth hose dipped in rubber and even metal, including steel and aluminum.

The superior choice here is metal flex hose that is designed to be flexible, yet be as smooth as possible to reduce static pressure loss.
There are also many kinds of pure plastic flexible hose, such as non- perforated drainage type hose and dryer vent hose. Drainage type hose, while being economical, does not quite have the flexibility required for dust collection. The inside of the duct is also deeply corrugated and can increase the static pressure loss by as much as 50% over smooth wall duct. Dryer vent hose, while being completely flexible, is non-resistant to abrasion and has a tendency to collapse in a negative pressure system. We DO NOT recommend using dryer vent hose in your dust collection system.

Figure 22. Example of flexible metal duct.

If using flex-hose, you should choose one of the many types that are designed specifically for the movement of solid particles, i.e. dust, grains, and plastics. However, the cost of specifically designed flexible duct can vary greatly. Woodstock offers polyethylene hose, which is well suited for the removal of particulate matter, especially sawdust, since it is durable and completely flexible. Polyethylene is also very economical and available in a wide variety of diameters and lengths for most applications.

System Grounding
Since plastic hose is abundant, relatively inexpensive, easily assembled and air tight, it is a very popular material for conveying dust from woodworking machines to the dust collector. We recommend using flexible hose (flex-hose) to connect the woodworking machine to the dust collector. However, plastic flex-hose and plastic duct are an insulator, and dust particles moving against the walls of the plastic duct create a static electrical build up. This charge will build until it discharges to a ground. If a grounding medium is not available to prevent static electrical build up, the electrical charge will arc to the nearest grounded source. This electrical discharge may cause an explosion and subsequent fire inside the system.
To protect against static electrical build up inside a nonconducting duct, a bare copper wire should be placed inside the duct along its length and grounded to the dust collector. You must also confirm that the dust collector is continuously grounded through the electrical circuit to the electric service panel.
If you connect the dust collector to more than one machine by way of a non- conducting branching duct system and blast gates, the system must still be grounded as mentioned above. We recommend inserting a continuous bare copper ground wire inside the entire duct system (see Figure 23) and attaching the wire to each grounded woodworking machine and dust collector.

Always guard against static electrical build up by grounding all dust collection lines.

Be sure that you extend the bare copper wire down all branches of the system. Do not forget to connect the wires to each other with wire nuts when two branches meet at a “Y” or “T” connection.

Figure 23. Flex-hose grounded to machine.

Ensure that the entire system is grounded. If using plastic blast gates to direct air flow, the grounding wire must be jumped (see Figure 24) around the blast gate without interruption to the grounding system.

Plastic Blast Gate

We also recommend wrapping the outside of all plastic ducts with bare copper wire to ground the outside of the system against static electrical build up. Wire connections at Y’s and T’s should be made with wire nuts.
Attach the bare ground wire to each stationary woodworking machine and attach to the dust collector frame with a ground screw, as shown in Figure 23. Ensure that each machine is continuously grounded to the grounding terminal in your electric service panel.

System Design
Decide Who Will Design
For most small-to-medium sized shops, you can design and build the dust collection system yourself without hiring engineers or consultants. We have included some basic information here to get you started on a basic design.
If you have a large shop or plan to design a complicated system, we recommend doing additional research beyond this manual or seeking the help of an expert.

Dust Collector

Sketch Your Shop Layout
When designing a successful dust collection system, planning is the most important step. In this step, sketch a basic layout of your shop, including space requirements of different machines.

Figure 25. Example sketch of basic shop layout.

Your sketch only needs the basic details of the shop layout, similar to Figure 25, including all your current/ planned machines and your planned placement of the dust collector.
Sketch a Duct Layout
For the next step, sketch how you will connect your machines to the dust collector. Consider these general guidelines for an efficient system:
1. Machines that produce the most saw dust should be placed nearest to the dust collector (i.e. planers and sanders).
2. Ideally, you should design the duct system to have the shortest possible main line and secondary branch ducts. See Figures 26­27 for ideas of efficient versus inefficient duct layouts.

3. Directional changes should be kept to a minimum. The more directional change fittings you use directly increases the overall resistance to airflow.
4. Gradual directional changes are more efficient than sudden directional changes (i.e. use the largest corner radius possible when changing hose or pipe direction).
5. Each individual branch line should have a blast gate immediately after the branch to control suction from one machine to another.
6. The simpler the system, the more efficient and less costly it will be.
Determine Required CFMs
Since each machine produces a different amount of sawdust, the requirements for the minimum amount of CFM to move that sawdust is unique to the machine (for example, a planer produces more sawdust than a table saw). Knowing this required CFM is important to gauging which size of duct to use.
Refer to Figure 28 for a close estimation of the airflow each machine requires. Keep in mind that machines that generate the most sawdust should be placed closest to the dust collector. If the machine has multiple dust ports, the total CFM required is the sum of all ports.
If the machine does not have a built-in dust port, use the table in Figure 29 to determine which size of dust port to install.

Write the required CFM for each machine on your sketch, as shown in Figure 30.
Determining Main Line Duct Size
The general rule of thumb for a main line duct is that the velocity of the airflow must not fall below 3500 FPM.
For small/medium sized shops, using the inlet size of the dust collector as the main line duct size will usually keep the air velocity above 3500 FPM and, depending on your system, will allow you to keep multiple branches open at one time.
Mark your drawing, as shown in Figure 31, but using the inlet size for your dust collector as the main line.
Determining Branch Line Duct Size
The general rule of thumb for a branch line duct is that the velocity of the airflow must not fall below 4000 FPM.
For small/medium sized shops, using the dust port size from the machine as the branch line duct size will achieve the correct velocity in most applications. However, if the dust port on the machine is smaller than 4″, make the branch line 4″ and neck the line down right before the dust port.
Note: Systems with powerful dust collectors work better if multiple blast gates are left open. This also allows you to run two machines at once. Experiment with different combinations of blast gates open/closed to find the best results for your system.

If two machines will connect to the same branch line and both will operate at the same time, then add the required CFM for each machine together and find the closest total CFM in the table in Figure 33 to determine the correct branch size.
If both machines will never run at the same time, reference the machine with the biggest dust port in the table below and add blast gates after the Y-branch to open/close the line to each machine.

Calculating Duct Resistance
Adding duct work, elbows, branches and any other components to a duct line increases airflow resistance (static pressure loss). This resistance can be minimized by using rigid (smooth) pipe and gradual curves, as opposed to flexible pipe and 90° elbows.
To help you think about this resistance, imagine riding a bicycle in a tunnel that is an exact replica of your duct work. If the inside of the tunnel is very bumpy (flexible pipe) and has a lot of sharp turns (90° elbows), it will take a lot more effort to travel from one end to the other.
The purpose of calculating the resistance is to determine if it is low enough from the machine to the dust collector to meet the given CFM requirement for the machine. Use the following tables to calculate the resistance of duct work.

In most small/medium shops it is only necessary to calculate the line with the longest duct length or the most fittings (operating under the assumption that if the line with the highest resistance works, the others will be fine).
To calculate the static pressure of any given line in the system, follow these steps:
1. Make a list of each size duct in the line, including the length, and multiply those numbers by the static pressure value given in the previous table.
2. List each type of elbow or branch and multiply the quantity (if more than one) by the static pressure loss given in the previous table.
3. Add the additional factors from the table in Figure 35 to your list.
4. Total your list (see Figure 36 for an example) to come up with your overall static pressure loss number for that line.
Note: Always account for a seasoned filter, so you don’t end up with a system that only works right when the filter is clean.
Additionally, when calculating static pressure loss to determine if multiple lines can be left open at the same time, only include the main line numbers once.
5. Compare the total static pressure loss for that line to the maximum static pressure loss found on the data sheet for your machine (located toward the front of this manual).
–If the CFM for your static pressure loss is above the requirement of the machine, then the line will most likely be successful. Congratulations! You’ve just designed your own dust system. Compile a list of materials and refer to Accessories beginning on Page 30, to start buying the components necessary to make your system a reality.

–If the CFM for your static pressure loss is below the requirement of the machine, then that line will not effectively collect the dust. You must then modify some of the factors in that line to reduce the static pressure loss. Some of the ways to do this include 1) installing larger duct, 2) reducing amount of flexible duct used, 3) increasing machine dust port size, 4) moving machine closer to dust collector to eliminate duct length, and 5) reducing 90° elbows or replacing them with 45° elbows.

OPERATIONS

OPERATIONS

Do NOT put hands or small objects near inlet openings during operation. Objects sucked into the inlet will meet with the impeller blade. Failure to heed this warning could result in property damage or personal injury.

To reduce your risk of serious injury or damage to the machine, read this entire manual BEFORE using machine.

General
Operating a dust collector is simple and straightforward. Turn the dust collector ON, then turn the dust producing machine ON. When you are finished with the machine operation, turn the machine OFF, then turn the dust collector OFF.
Blast gates can be used at the start of each branch line to control the air flow from the woodworking machine to the dust collector. If a machine is not being used, keep the blast gate closed to maintain higher levels of efficiency throughout the system.

To reduce the risk of eye injury and long-term respiratory damage, always wear safety glasses and a respirator while operating this machine.

Disabling Switch
The paddle ON/OFF switch can be disabled by removing the key, as shown in Figure 37. Disabling the switch in this manner can prevent unauthorized operation of the machine, which is important if it is not kept inside an access-restricted building or in a location where children may be present.
IMPORTANT: Disabling the switch only restricts its function. It is not a substitute for disconnecting machine from power when adjusting or servicing.

Machine Storage
When the dust collector is not in use, unplug the power cord from the power source. Place the cord away from potential damage sources, such as high traffic areas, sharp objects, heat sources, harsh chemicals, water, damp areas, etc.

MAINTENANCE

General
Regular periodic maintenance on your machine will ensure its optimum performance. Make a habit of inspecting your machine each time you use it.

Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary:

· Loose mounting bolts. · Worn switch. · Worn or damaged cords and plugs. · Almost full collection bag. · Any other condition that could hamper the safe
operation of this machine.

To reduce risk of shock or accidental startup, always disconnect machine from power before adjustments, maintenance, or service.

Lubrication
Since all bearings are shielded and permanently lubricated, simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them.

Bag Cleaning
Always empty the collection bags on a regular basis. Emptying the collection bags allows the machine to operate at a much higher level of efficiency.
Always wear the appropriate respirator or dust mask and safety glasses when emptying the collection bags. Small dust particles can escape the bags during emptying, causing them to become airborne and easily inhaled. This microscopic airborne dust is extremely unhealthy to breathe and can cause serious health problems.
While the Model W1666/W1685 excels at collecting the majority of wood dust produced by your machines, it is not an air filter; therefore, we strongly recommend the supplemental aid of a shop air filter such as the Woodstock Model W1690. Air filters are designed to collect the smaller dust particles in the air that escape from the dust collector bag.

Always wear a respirator and safety glasses when emptying dust collection bags on the dust collector. Sawdust may cause allergic reactions or respiratory problems.

MAINTENANCE

-32-

Model W1666/W1685 (For Machines Mfd. Since 2/15)
Replacing Bags
The lower bags should be emptied when they become 2/3 to 3/4 full.
To empty the dust collection bags, do these steps:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Make sure you are wearing safety glasses and a respirator.
3. Release the quick release clamp securing each collection bag, then remove the bags from the collector, as shown in Figure 38.
4. Place a garbage bag over each bag, invert the bag, and shake the dust out.
5. Dispose of the dust and re-install the bags with the clamps.

Troubleshooting
This section covers the most common problems and corrections with this type of machine. WARNING! DO NOT make any adjustments until power is disconnected and moving parts have come to a complete stop!

PROBLEM Machine does not start or a breaker trips.
Machine has vibration or noisy operation.
Dust collector does not adequately collect dust or chips; poor performance.
Sawdust being blown into the air from the dust collector.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

CORRECTIVE ACTION

1. Switch disabling key removed. 2. Power supply switched OFF or is at
fault. 3. Wall fuse/circuit breaker is blown/
tripped. 4. Wiring is open/has high resistance.
5. Motor ON button or ON/OFF switch is at fault.
6. Motor is at fault.

1. Install switch disabling key. 2. Ensure power supply is switched on; ensure power
supply has the correct voltage. 3. Ensure circuit size is suitable for this
machine; replace weak breaker. 4. Check for broken wires or disconnected/corroded
connections, and repair/replace as necessary. 5. Replace faulty ON button or ON/OFF switch.
6. Test/repair/replace.

1. Motor, motor mount, or other mounting component is loose or broken.
2. Motor fan is rubbing on fan cover.
3. Impeller is loose or damaged and unbalanced.
4. Motor bearings are at fault.

1. Retighten. Use thread locking fluid if necessary. Replace stripped fasteners or damaged components if necessary.
2. Replace dented fan cover; replace loose/damaged fan.
3. Disconnect dust collector from power, and inspect the impeller for dents, bends, loose fins. Replace the motor and impeller as a set if the motor shaft and the impeller hub are damaged.
4. Test by rotating shaft; rotational grinding/loose shaft requires bearing replacement.

1. Dust collection bag is full. 2. Restriction in duct line.
3. Dust collector is too far away, or there are too many sharp bends in the ducting.
4. Lumber is wet and dust not flowing through ducting smoothly.
5. Leaks in ducting or too many open ports.
6. Not enough open branch lines, causing a velocity drop in the main line.
7. Ducting or machine dust ports are incorrectly sized.
8. The machine dust collection design is inadequate.
9. The dust collector is too small for the dust collection system, or ducting layout design is inadequate.

1. Empty collection bag. 2. Remove restriction in the duct line. A plumbing
snake may be necessary. 3. Relocate the dust collector closer to the point of
suction, and rework ducting without sharp bends. Refer to System Design, beginning on Page 23. 4. Process lumber with less than 20% moisture content. 5. Rework the ducting to eliminate all leaks. Close dust ports for lines not being used. 6. Open 1 or 2 more blast gates to different branch lines to allow the velocity in the main line to increase. 7. Re-install correctly sized ducts and fittings. Refer to System Design beginning on Page 23 for more solutions. 8. Use a dust collection nozzle on a stand.
9. Install a larger dust collector to power your dust collection system.

1. Duct clamps or dust collection bag are not properly clamped and secured.
2. Bag clamp is loose or damaged.

1. Resecure ducts and dust collection bag, making sure duct and bag clamps are tight and completely over the ducts and bags.
2. Retighten bag clamp.
