Grizzly G1066 instruction manual Dust Collection

Dust Collection

The dust collection ports are located on the top of the sanding head cover and each measures 4" in diameter. It will be necessary to attach 4" dust collection pipes over these ports. Flex-hose is recommended because it will ease removal of the sanding head cover when paper changes and adjustments are necessary. Grizzly offers 4" flex- hose to connect this machine to a dust collection system. The flex-hose easily attaches with a 4" hose clamp. Please refer to our catalog for cur- rent price and ordering information.

Your dust collector must be able to move 450 cfm at the Drum Sander. If you have a remotely located dust collector or you are operating more than one machine at a time, ensure that your dust collector has the capacity and power to meet this requirement. A fine layer of dust will be present on your stock as it comes out of the sander. This is normal.

DO NOT operate the Model G1066/G1066Z/G1079 without an adequate dust collection system. This machine creates substantial amounts of wood dust while in operation. Failure to use a dust collection system can result in short and long-term res- piratory illness.

Always wear a dust mask in addition to using a dust collector. Dust masks filter out the smaller particles of dust that dust collectors can- not trap.
