Dust Collection

Recommended CFM at Sander: ................. 1600 CFM

Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with the rating

of the dust collector. To determine the CFM at the dust

port, you must take into account many variables, includ-

ing the CFM rating of the dust collector, the length of

hose between the dust collector and the machine, the

amount of branches or Y's, and the amount of other open

lines throughout the system. Explaining this calculation

is beyond the scope of this manual. If you are unsure of

your system, consult an expert or purchase a good dust

collection "how-to" book.

We recommend using a dust collection system that pro-

duces a minimum of 2000 CFM. A fine layer of dust will

be present on your stock as it comes out of the sander.

This is normal.

To connect the dust ports to a dust collector, do these

steps:

1. Attach 4" dust collection hoses to the dust ports

shown in

Figure 17 and secure them with hose

clamps.

Before connecting to power, read through the

ELECTRICAL section on Page 11 to check that your

setup follows the safety and circuit requirements for this

machine. Be sure to also have your electrician on hand

for the "Test Run" in case the power is connected out of

phase (Model W1773 only).

To connect the sander to the power source, do these

steps:

1. Remove the screws securing the control panel and

lift off the face plate.

Power Connection

Attempting to connect this machine to

the power source without a qualified

electrician greatly increases the risk

of electrocution, fire, or machine

damage.
