Not only does the introduction of an effi cient dust or chip
extraction system reduce this potential health hazard, but it keeps
the workshop cleaner and generally makes working with wood
in a confi ned space a much more enjoyable activity. The choice
of the correct type of extractor for any particular application
can be a bit confusing, with apparently confl icting requirements
for collecting different types of waste from a wide variety of
woodworking machinery. For more information regarding the
potential risks of wood dusts, please visit:

and

As an aid to selecting a suitable extractor we have introduced the
following performance rating guide to give a quick indication of
the type of waste that each extractor is designed to handle. If you
are still unsure of suitability please contact our Specialist Sales

Wood Waste Extraction
These extractors are powered by centrifugal fans which draw a large volume of air through the inlet hose and discharge it through the fabric fi lter bag situated on the top of the machine. The waste falls into the
lower bag which can either be the fabric one supplied or the optional plastic waste sacks, where applicable. Although these machines generate a large volume of airfl ow the pressure rise is low which makes
them unsuitable for operating with small diameter inlet hoses. A reduction below 3” diameter is not recommended. The mesh size of the fi lter bag has to be relatively coarse in order to allow the high volume
of air to pass through and thus the extractor is not suitable for fi ltering out the very fi ne dust produced by sanding machines. The fi ne mesh fi lter bags or cartridge fi lters available for most of the models will
improve the level of fi ltration but with some penalty in reduced airfl ow. Generally suitable for collecting chippings and larger particle size sawdust from machines equipped with 3” or 4” diameter outlets.

This extractor, with its 1.5kW motor, large capacity
collection bag and twin 100mm hose inlets, will
handle most single workshop machines. Use the
single 125mm inlet or the twin 100mm adaptor
for two smaller machines. The top cloth bag acts
as the fi lter whilst the lower plastic bag collects
the coarse dust and chippings. Plastic bags allow
a number of bags to be fi lled and stored ready for
bulk disposal. The extractor’s fi ltration system can
be upgraded with the addition of the cartridge fi lter. The solid
connection tube between the impellor housing and collector
creates an effi cient air fl ow system. Castors on the base allow for
easy mobility around the workshop. This is a good, solid, simple
extractor. Lengths of suitable inlet hose are listed under Dust
Extraction Accessories. N.B. This machine uses waste sack size
785 x 1,200mm (501187).

A chip and coarse dust extractor for extracting from
saws, planers, spindle moulders, bandsaws and
similar machines in a small workshop. Equipped
with two cloth bags, the top one acting as the fi lter
and the lower one for collecting the waste. Power
comes from a 750W induction motor equipped
with a no-volt-release switch and emergency stop
button. If required, the cloth collection bag can
be replaced with plastic waste sacks, which can
be more convenient for storage of waste prior to disposal. An
unusual feature of this extractor is the fl oor sweeping attachment
which fi ts to the base of the machine, allowing the extractor to be
wheeled around the workshop, collecting waste as it goes. There
is a fi ne fi lter bag available for use when collecting medium sized
dust particles, or alternatively, an optional fi ne dust cartridge fi lter
can be fi tted. (N.B.You must use plastic waste sacks with the fi ne
fi lter bag or cartridge fi lter).
The machine is supplied with an approximately 600mm length of
inlet hose; additional lengths of 100mm hose are available separately.
N.B. this machine uses waste sack size - 560 x 915mm (340068).

This extractor can be used in small home
workshops for common wood machining tasks
where a higher airfl ow than provided by a vacuum
extractor is required. A quiet running induction
motor provides plenty of power to extract from
many small workshop machines. The inlet diameter is 100mm(4”),
the outlet into the bag is 125mm(5”) and the airfl ow is suffi cient
to handle the majority of waste likely to be produced by the
home workshop. A useful feature is that it can be used either in
the horizontal position or suspended from a sturdy wall using the
two hanging brackets provided. Hose not supplied. See extraction
hose selection for further details. Please note that this is a
chippings extractor and should not be expected to collect fi ne
dust. As with all the high volume low pressure airfl ow machines,
the inlet should not be restricted to below 75mm diameter and
the bag should be emptied regularly.
