QUICK REFERENCE OPERATOR CARD
1. Pre-Start Checklist & Calibration¶

- Blast Gates: Ensure target machine blast gate is open and idle machine gates are closed.
- Hose Integrity: Verify flexible ductwork connections fit tightly onto tool ports.
2. Safety Precautions¶
- Static Grounding: Keep ductwork grounded to prevent static discharge sparks near fine wood dust.
- Bag Capacity: Empty lower plastic collection bag before chips fill above lower metal collar ring.
- Foreign Objects: Do not allow metal fasteners or large solid offcuts to enter suction hose.
3. Basic Operating Procedure¶
- Connect duct hose to target woodworking tool and open corresponding blast gate.
- Power on dust collector prior to starting woodworking machinery.
