Assembly Instructions (Continued) Insert the Casters (H) into the Caster Mounts (G). Apply pressure and twisting motion until Wheels snap into place [FIG. 2]. FIG. 2 Ensure that the surfaces on the Drum (E) and Caster Mounts (G) are clean and dry. Remove a square from the Double Sided Tape (F) and apply to the Caster Mount in the recessed location at each corner [FIG 3].
Page 12
Flip the Drum (E) upside down and arrange the Caster assemblies evenly around the bottom edge [FIG. 4]. Note: We recommend arranging the Caster Assemblies at 90° increments from each other for the most stable setup. 90° FIG. 4 Oneida Air Systems...

Optional Grounding Instructions Recommended for fine dust situations or electronically sensitive applications. The Static Dissipative Cyclone (A) and the Elbows (N) are molded from an industrial static conductive resin, which preserves the grounding pathway for electronically sensitive applications and does not require the Metal Tape (K). Install the Metal Tape to the Elbow (O) [FIG 11a] and the Hose Adapters (P) [FIG 11b] so that all connections are attached by a continuous, conductive path.
Page 22
Install the Metal Tape (K) to the Cyclone (A) so that the inlet, outlet, and flange are attached by a continuous, conductive path. The tape should wrap 1/4" around the edge of each opening [FIG 12]. FIG. 12 Oneida Air Systems...

Optional Grounding Instructions (Continued) For added grounding, attach a self-supplied wire with a ring terminal on one end and a washer tied to the other end when installing one of the bolts in Step 5 on Page 10. The wire must be long enough for the washer to lie on the floor [FIG 13].
2. Use a hose clamp. 3. Wrap the inlet and outlet of the Dust Deputy with a layer of electrical tape to increase the friction fit. 4. Secure hose with a sheet metal screw. Oneida Air Systems...

does the 2.5 have the same flange pattern as the original dust deputy? Yes! Both the original Dust Deputy cyclone and the new Dust Deputy 2.5 cyclone share the same bottom flange pattern. This makes upgrading existing cyclone installations quick and easy! You can find printable template files for download in the Documents tab found on the website of our product pages.

2.5? Rather than worrying about what specs your vacuum needs (e.g. air watts, cfm, static lift, etc.), we at Oneida Air Systems have a much simpler approach - simply match the size of your vacuum's inlet to the size of the Dust Deputy cyclone's ports.
