Dust Collection; Test Run - Grizzly G0456 Owner's Manual

Dust Collection

DO NOT operate the Model G0456 disc sand-
er without an adequate dust collection sys-
tem. Sanding creates substantial amounts
of fine dust. Failure to use a dust collection
system can result in short- and long-term
respiratory illness.
Recommended CFM at Dust Port:
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with
the rating of the dust collector. To determine the
CFM at the dust port, you must take into account
many variables, including the CFM rating of the
dust collector, the length of hose between the
dust collector and the machine, the amount of
branches or wyes, and the amount of other open
lines throughout the system. Explaining this cal-
culation is beyond the scope of this manual. If
you are unsure of your system, consult an expert
or purchase a good dust collection "how-to" book.
Refer to Grizzly Model G2525 "Dust Collection
Basics."
To connect a dust collection hose:
1.
Fit the 2" dust hose or adapter over the dust
port, as shown in Figure 10, and secure in
place with a hose clamp.
2.
Tug the hose to make sure it does not come
off. Note: A tight fit is necessary for proper
performance.
