is diminished. The following is a list of things to
keep in mind when determining the placement of
the air filter:
• Study your shop layout to determine the best
location for the double air filter. Air flow that is
obstructed will cause a short cycle effect pro-
ducing unsatisfactory results. There must be
a clearance of at least 12" from any obstruc
-
tions in front and back of the unit.
• Place the air filter in front of high dust produc
-
ers like sanders or near areas where sanding
will take place.
• Do not place the double air filter in the path of
garage doors or where it may impede trans-
port or movement of any other object.
• Place the unit in a location that provides easy
access to turn on, clean and maintain.

effectiveness of the double air filter. Air circulation
must be thought out and all obstructions in the air
path considered.
The G9956 Double Air Filter is supplied with a
pair of directional vents which allows the user to
direct the flow of circulation. However, while the
vents will optimize a good layout, as in
Figure 3
,
they will have a limited effect when the double
air filter is placed incorrectly in the room as in
Figure 4. When placed too close to obstruc
-
tions, the velocity of the air is lost and circulation
