330002 Dust Collector
a loud noise. In some instances, large scraps
could even become jammed in the fan.
Hoses
The hoses attach to stationary or handheld
power woodworking equipment with 2-1/4"
dust chute outlets. A reducer allows you to
connect to equipment with 1-1/4" chutes such
as the Shopsmith Mark V Model 500 (having
a serial number 222396 or lower). Three 2-1/
2" diameter hoses can be connected to the 3-
way inlet and used simultaneously. The large
airflow and filter capacity make it suitable for
other dust producing activities such as dry-
wall sanding. Through use, you’ll discover
more.
Filter the Air - You can use the Dust Collector
to filter dust from the air in your workshop by
removing the hoses and any inlet plugs.
Optional 4 “ Inlet - With this inlet you can
connect the Dust Collector to power tools
equipped with 4. dust chutes and hoses.
Permanent Piping System using the 4. Inlet -
For some workshops it may be more conve-
nient to have a permanent system rather than
move the Dust Collector to various locations
throughout the shop. But long lengths of flex-
ible hose are not the solution. They will greatly
reduce the airflow and should not be used for
permanent systems. However, Schedule 10
PVC pipe and various fittings offer less resis-
tance to airflow than flexible hose and are
recommended for permanent piping systems.
The instructions that come with the optional
4. inlet explain how to construct a permanent
system.
Caring for Your Dust
Collector
Your Dust Collector is designed to deliver
years of reliable service with a minimum of
maintenance.
WARNING
Turn off and unplug the Dust Collector before
you start a maintenance or troubleshooting pro-
cedure.
Cleaning the Filter Hood
During operation, dust will build up on the
inside surface of the filter hood. Every time
the bag is changed, tap the top and sides of the
filter hood to dislodge the dust buildup. If
you’re generating a lot of fine dust, tap off the
dust buildup more often
If you desire, you can wash the filter hood
when it becomes soiled and/or clogged. Be-
fore washing, dislodge the dust buildup and
remove the retaining strap. Then hand or
machine wash the hood in cold water using a
mild detergent. Line dry or tumble dry on no
heat. When hood is dry, reinstall the retaining
strap assembly.
Cleaning the Exterior
As needed, clean the outside of the Dust
Collector with a sponge or cloth slightly damp-
ened with a soap and water solution. Wipe or
air dry all parts thoroughly.
WARNING
Do not allow water to enter the switch area or to
drip through the filter hood
