G1163 Portable Dust Collector
The G1163 is a relatively heavy and awkward
machine (70 lb shipping weight). Improper lift-
ing practices could cause serious personal
injury. DO NOT over-exert yourself while
unpacking or moving your machine – get
assistance if needed.
The Model G1163 Dust Collector is shipped from
the manufacturer in a carefully packed carton. If
you discover the machine is damaged after
you’ve signed for delivery, please call Customer
Service immediately for advice.
Save the containers and all packing materials for
possible inspection by the carrier or its agent.
Otherwise filing a freight claim can be difficult.
With all the parts removed from the container,
you should have:
•Collector Body and Fan/Motor Assembly
•Base
•Handle Bar

In the event that any non-proprietary parts are
missing (e.g. a nut or a washer), we would be
glad to replace them, or, for the sake of expedi-
ency, replacements can be obtained at your local
hardware store.
Use care when handling stamped metal parts.
Though they’re inspected at the factory for
small burrs along the edges, an occasional
imperfection may escape detection. Failure to
use caution while handling could result in per-
sonal injury.
DO NOT attempt to power up the machine
before it has been fully assembled and adjust-
ed according to the instructions in this manu-
al. Ensure that the switch is off, power is dis-
connected while assembling. Serious per-
sonal injury may result.
A full parts list and breakdown can be found
toward the end of this manual. For easier
assembly, or to identify missing parts, please
refer to the detailed illustrations at the end of
the manual.
