W1812 Owner's Manual (Mfd. Since 02/11)
SETUP
DO NOT operate this machine without an adequate
dust collection system. This machine creates substan-
tial amounts of wood dust while operating. Failure to
use a dust collection system can result in short and
long-term respiratory illness.
Recommended CFM at Dust Port: ................ 400 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
number 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.
