X. Troubleshooting
Dust Deputy not separating well. (Only a tiny amount of dust should reach the
vacuum.)
Air leak. Check cyclone fl ange / drum lid / barrel. Even small leaks
will affect performance.
Low air volume.
Vacuum fi lter clogged. Blockage in hose.
Material swirls in cyclone and won't drop down into drum.
Air leak in bottom of cyclone / drum lid or dust drum.
Large, bulkier material might swirl. Restart or temporarily cut off air fl ow to
drop material down.
Material swirls in cyclone and won't drop down into drum.
Hose connections not tight.
Due to the varied hose diameters, fl exible couplers
can be used. They are available at local hardware
stores in the plumbing section.
To Prevent Tipping Problems
Some models of vacs with a short wheel base can become sligthly unstable
with the addition of a 5 gal. pail. To prevent this you can do the following:
Position one of the vac wheels directly under the
5 gal. pail to increase the center of gravity.
Position a weight (eg. brick) on the opposite side
of the vac from the 5 gal. pail to counter-balance
the pail.
Attach the 5 gal. pail to the vacuum and add a
caster to the bottom of the pail for support and
mobility..
To Prevent Hose Pull Off
The inlet and outlet of the Dust Deputy are shouldered and tapered to adapt
to a range of vac hose sizes. If on your model the friction fi t isn't as tight as
needed you can do the following:
Wrap the inlet and outlet of the Dust Deputy with a layer of electrical tape
to increase the friction fi t.
Secure with a hose clamp.
Secure with a sheet metal screw.
