VIII. Troubleshooting
Poor Dust Pick-Up
Caused By:
Air leakage between cyclone and dust bin. Cyclone and dust bin must be air tight. Even small leaks can will cause
poor pre-separation in the cyclone.
Large chips clogging the hose:
- Clean fi lter.
- Check length of hose for obstructions..
- Check for air leaks between collector and dust bin.
- Examine hood design for weaknesses according to the ductwork guide.
- Check for a restricted hose, too small a hood port or too small a branch line.
Filter Clogging
Caused By:
Air leakage between cyclone and dust bin. Cyclone and dust bin must be air tight. Even small leaks can will cause
poor pre-separation in the cyclone.
Large chips clogging the fi lter:
- Check for a leak in the dust bin, fl ex coupling or lid. Check for split or torn fl ex coupling. (See also: Motor Over-
heating Section above.)
- Make sure dust bin has not over fi lled. Dust bin should be emptied before dust reaches top of container.
- Interruption of air fl ow, such as vacuuming chips with a fl ex hose connection, will increase fi lter maintenance.
- Check for clogs or large debris inside cyclone, on the inside or outside of the vortex tube.
Excessive Vibration
Caused By:
Loose mounting bolts.
