Mobile; Stationary - Grizzly G1032 Instruction Manual

Mobile

For mobility, the G1032 is mounted on casters
and can be moved within close proximity to one
or two woodworking machines, depending on the
model. You will need a flexible duct to connect
each machine with a collection hood. If you wish
to specifically direct air flow while the dust collec-
tor is attached to more than one machine, you will
need to add a blast gate for each machine.
When moving the dust collector around the shop,
you must consider clearances between obstacles
and accessibility to convenient electrical outlets.
A heavy-duty extension cord may be used if an
outlet is not convenient.

Stationary

The G1032 can be set up as a stationary unit with
the addition of a fixed duct system to service
more than one machine at a time. The primary
advantage of a stationary system is it eliminates
the process of disconnecting and moving the dust
collector, hoses and cords, and eliminates hoses
and cords laying on the floor. Another advantage
of a stationary system is it allows the dust collec-
tor to be located away from the work area, reduc-
ing noise and freeing up valuable workshop
space. Grizzly offers a complete line of dust col-
lection accessories for setting up a stationary
system. Additionally, Grizzly offers a complete
guide book for setting up stationary dust collec-
tion systems. Please refer to our current catalog
for pricing and ordering information.
A stationary system configuration usually has a
main duct with smaller ducts branching to each
machine. The main duct should be located out of
the way of normal operations and be accessible
for the branch ducts. Branch ducts are perma-
nently attached to each machine by way of col-
lection hoods. Air flow is controlled by blast gates
located in the branch ducts and near each
machine. Remote switches, available from elec-
trical supply stores, can be added to make the
system even more convenient.
To design a stationary system, you must consid-
er many interrelated factors such as, shop layout,
woodworking machine capacities, and general
duct efficiency. Design considerations for a sta-
tionary dust collection system are beyond the
scope of this manual. As stated above, Dust
Collection Basics, offered by Grizzly, is an excel-
lent resource for dust collection questions.
