SECTION 5: OPERATIONS

Operation Overview

The purpose of this overview is to provide the nov-
ice machine operator with a basic understanding
of how the machine is used during operation, so
the machine controls/components discussed later
in this manual are easier to understand.
Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is
not intended to be an instructional guide. To learn
more about specific operations, read this entire
manual, seek additional training from experienced
machine operators, and do additional research
outside of this manual by reading "how-to" books,
trade magazines, or websites.
To reduce your risk of
serious injury, read this
entire
using machine.
To reduce risk of eye injury from flying
chips or lung damage from breathing dust,
always wear safety glasses and a respirator
when operating this machine.
If you are not experienced with this type
of machine, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND
that you seek additional training outside of
this manual. Read books/magazines or get
formal training before beginning any proj-
ects. Regardless of the content in this sec-
tion, Grizzly Industrial will not be held liable
for accidents caused by lack of training.

General Operation

This cyclone dust collector creates a vortex of
incoming air that extracts heavy wood chips and
large dust particles, and then drops them into the
steel drum below, which is lined with a plastic bag
(see Figure 62).

The remaining dust travels past the impeller and
is then caught by the canister filter and deposited
in the plastic collection bag below. This spun-
bond polyester filter catches 99.9% particles from
0.2 to 2 micron in size and larger, and is pleated
to provide maximum surface area for efficient
airflow.
To maintain CFM during heavy dust-collection
operations, a filter brush motor rotates internal
brushes that knock caked-on dust into the plastic
collection bag.
Always lock swivel casters during operation.
