G0573 Two Speed Floor Air Filter
Unsupervised children and
visitors inside your shop
could cause serious personal
injury to themselves. Lock all
entrances to the shop when
you are away and DO NOT
allow unsupervised children
or visitors in your shop at
any time!
Shop Preparation
Operating Location
Operating this air cleaner unit in the incorrect
environment can cause an explosion or respira
-
tory damage to you and others. This air cleaner
unit is only designed to help remove very fine
wood particles from the air. It is not a dust
collector, so take all necessary safety pre
-
cautions.
The operating location must be free
of volatile fumes from fuels, paints, pesticides,
chemicals, smoke, and other gasses; including
an environment free of silica, metal, asbestos,
hazardous bacterium, and other particles.
Working Clearances
Make sure there is 5-10' of clearance between the
inlet and the outlet and any obstructions, as not
to restrict the air flow. You may have to create or
modify other shop ducting to achieve the correct
working clearances and airflow.
DO NOT operate this air
cleaner unit at a location
where flammable fuels,
solvents, or other vola
-
tile chemicals may exist.
Since these products
have a low flash point,
the fan motor can ignite
the fumes and cause an
explosion and severe
personal injury!
Outlets
Make sure the electrical circuits have the capacity
to handle the amperage requirements of the new
air cleaner unit. Refer to Page
6 for more infor-
mation. Electrical outlets should be located near
the unit so power or extension cords are clear of
high-traffic areas.
Site planning is an important step to maximize
the effectiveness of the air filter. Air circulation
must be thought out and all obstructions to the
air path considered.
Think of air circulation in terms of the circular
motion of the air before and after the air filter.
The air exiting the filter is exhausted at a higher
velocity than that entering it. Consequently,
exhaust being vented inside a building can have
an effect on the pattern of air circulation.
The user may choose to vent exhaust horizon
-
tally from the 12" vent, install a short section of
metal ducting onto the vent to deflect exhaust
upward. Air circulation patterns will vary depend
-
ing upon which method is used, and according
to your specific shop setup.
Figure
1 shows an example of good air circula-
tion
where the user vents exhaust horizontally
from the 12" exterior vent.
