Base Machine Assembly

The dust collector must not be
connected to the power source
during assembly. Failure to comply may result
in serious injury!
All instructions on this page refer to Figure 3.

Base and Casters

1. The 3/8" hex nut (F) and M10 lock washer
(G) are pre-assembled to each caster (J). For
shipping purposes, the lock washer has been
placed beneath the hex nut. Remove hex nut
and lock washer from the caster shaft, re-
install the hex nut, then install the lock
washer above the hex nut, as shown.
2. Install the four casters (J) to the underside of
the base (H) as follows:
3. Thread the caster shaft into the threaded hole
on the underside of the base (H), turn until
snug. Tighten the hex nut (F) against the
base with a 14mm wrench.

Motor and Fan Assembly

1. Place the base with casters down on the
ground.
2. Attach the motor and fan assembly (K) to the
base (H) using six M8x20 hex cap screws (A),
and six M10 flat washers (D). Hand tighten only
until all screws and washers are in place, then
adjust the motor and fan assembly (K) until its
flanges are approximately flush with the edges
of the base (H). Tighten all screws with a 13mm
wrench.
3. Attach the inlet guard (L) to fan housing (K)
using eight M6x12 pan head flange screws (B).
4. Press the inlet port (M) as far as it will go onto
the inlet guard (L).
To reduce the risk of injury from
moving parts, always keep both holes of inlet
port (M) covered with either the provided cap or
dust hoses. Failure to comply may result in
serious injury!

Connector Tube and Switch Box

1. Place the lower gasket (N) on the fan housing
(K). Line up the rubber pegs on the gasket
(face down) with the holes in the housing.
2. Place the connector tube (O) on the fan
housing (K), making sure that the holes of the
mating flanges are aligned.
Note: Refer to Figure 3 to make sure that the
connector tube is facing the proper direction.
3. Insert an M8x20 hex cap screw (A), through the
M8 washer (C) and flanges of the connector
tube (O) and fan housing (K).
4. Place another washer (C) and a hex nut (E) on
the protruding end of the screw (A) and hand-
tighten only.
5. Mount the control box (P) to the two holes at
the front of the connector tube flange.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the remaining screw
locations, hand tightening only.
7. Tighten all hex nuts with a 13mm wrench.

Collector Housing

Mount the collector housing (S) as follows:
1. Place an upper gasket (R) between the collector housing (S) and connector tube (O).
Line up the pegs on the gasket (R) with the
holes in the housing (S).
2. Place the collector housing (S) on the
connector tube (O).
3. Insert a screw (A) through the washer (C),
connector tube flange (O), and collector-
housing flange (S).
4. Place another washer (C) and a hex nut (E) on
the protruding end of the screw (A) and hand-
tighten.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the seven
remaining screw locations.
6. Tighten all hex nuts with a 13mm wrench.

Support Bar

1. Align the bottom slots of the support bar (T)
with the holes in the base (H). Insert two
screws (A) and two flat washers (C) and hand
tighten only.
Note: If you are using the Canister Filter
System, proceed with steps 2 through 4
below. If you are using the Filter Bag System,
leave the support bar (T) as is, for further
assembly later, and proceed to "Handles".
2. Align the top holes of the support bar (T) with
the holes at the rear of the collector housing
(S) and insert two screws (A) and two flat
washers (C).
3. Place a washer (C) and a hex nut (E) on the
protruding end of each screw (A) inside the
collector housing, and hand-tighten only.
4. Adjust the lower part of the support bar (T) as
needed using its slots, until it is straight. Then
tighten all four screws on the support bar (T).
