Dust Collection - Grizzly G0817 Owner's Manual

Dust Collection

This machine creates substantial amounts
of dust during operation. Breathing air-
borne dust on a regular basis can result in
permanent respiratory illness. Reduce your
risk by wearing a respirator and capturing
the dust with a dust collection system.
Minimum CFM at each Dust Port: 400 CFM
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with
the rating of the dust collector. To determine the
CFM at the dust port, you must consider these
variables: (1) CFM rating of the dust collector,
(2) hose type and length between the dust col-
lector and the machine, (3) number of branches
or wyes, and (4) amount of other open lines
throughout the system. Explaining how to cal-
culate these variables is beyond the scope of
this manual. Consult an expert or purchase a
good dust collection "how-to" book.

To connect dust collection system to machine:
1. Fit a 4" dust hose over each dust port, and
secure them in place with hose clamps (see
Figure 35).
Figure 35. Dust hoses attached to dust ports.
Note: For best results, connect free ends of
hoses to a 4" Y fitting and secure with hose
clamps, then connect fitting to your dust col-
lection system. See Accessories, beginning
on Page 51, for more information.
2. Tug hoses to make sure they do not come
off.
Note: A tight fit is necessary for proper
performance.
