Operation

This downdraft table features a work light to illu-
minate the work area, and an impeller that draws
fumes and dust from the table into a three-stage
filter system. The side doors can be latched
in place or opened to make room for larger
workpieces.
Electric or pneumatic grinders (or other hand-held
tools) can be attached directly to the machine with
the auxiliary outlet and quick-connect coupler,
eliminating the need for extension cords or long
air hoses that get in the way.
The pneumatic cleaning system knocks dust off
of the two canister filters where a dust tray waits
to collect it. Both this tray and a drawer under the
spark arrestor can be easily removed for dust and
slag disposal.
This machine does not substitute the need for a
respirator or proper workpiece preparation.
When welding or plasma cutting, make sure you
are familiar with the workpiece materials, know
what types of fumes will be created, and take the
necessary precautions. Many metal coatings will
produce poisonous fumes when heated. Strip
coatings off at least four inches away from the
area of heat application before welding or cutting.
It is always better to follow good welding practices
and remove coatings that may smoke and pos-
sible contaminate the weld.
