Electrical Connections
All electrical connections must
be done by a qualified electrician.
All adjustments or repairs must be done with the
dust collector disconnected from the power source,
unplugged. Failure to comply may result in serious
injury!
The DC-1100VX dust collectors (all models) are rated at
115/230V, Prewired 115V. Use a plug and outlet rated
at least 20 amps. The circuit for the machine should
also be protected by a minimum 20 amp circuit breaker
or fuse. Keep in mind that a circuit being used by other
machines, tools, lights, heaters, etc. at the same time
will add to the electrical load.
A dedicated circuit to the dust collector will give you the
best results since dust collectors are generally used at
the same time other tools are running.
Turning the Machine On & Off
This machine is intended for
indoor use only.
All Models
Before hooking up to the power source, make sure that
the switch is in the off position.
Turn the dust collector on by pressing the Start button
mounted next to the motor. Press the Stop button to turn
off the dust collector.
Remote Control (Optional Accessory)
The DC-RC RF Remote Power Control unit is available
as an optional accessory (see your dealer or contact
Customer Service by calling the number on the cover).
Important: The DC-RC Remote Power Control (SN
708636C) can be used for activating Dust Collection
units powered by 115V only up to 1-1/2HP. If your dust
collector is currently set up for 230V operation or you
choose to convert it to 230V at a later time, you must
purchase the DC-RC230 Remote Power Control unit
(SN 708636D).
