Model W1829 (Mfg. Since 9/11)

SETUP

Dust Collection

The W1829 has a built-in dust collection fan and chip exhaust. It also includes a 2.5" dust port, clamp, and dust collection bag. The W1829 can also be hooked up to a pre-existing dust collection system.

Recommended CFM at Dust Port:

150 CFM

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 Y's, and the amount of other open lines throughout the system. Explaining this calculation 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.

To install the dust port and collection bag, do these steps:

1.Install the dust port to the chip exhaust, as shown in

Figure 16.

2.Slip the bag clamp over the collection bag, then attach the collection bag to the dust port and clamp it in place, as shown in Figure 17.

Adjustments

For your convenience, the adjustments listed below have been performed at the factory and no further setup is required to operate your machine.

However, because of the many variables involved with shipping, we recommend that you at least verify the following adjustments to ensure the best possible results from your new machine.

Step-by-step instructions for these adjustments can be found in Service on Page 28.

1. Knife settings (see Page 30).

2. Fence stop accuracy (see Page 33).

DO NOT operate this machine with- out an adequate dust collection sys- tem. This machine creates substantial amounts of wood dust while operating. Failure to use a dust collection system can result in short and long-term respi- ratory illness.
