Overview

How we repair your Dust Collection System

A dust collection system is a workshop blower with ducting, blast gates and a filter or cyclone separator that captures wood dust and chips from saws, planers and sanders. A dust collection system is built around a motor, filters, hoses or ducts, brushes or nozzles, and a battery or power supply on cordless and robotic models. A technician checks suction and airflow, motors and brushes, filters and batteries.

Diagnosis

Common Dust Collection System problems we fix

What usually causes each symptom, and what our technician checks to confirm it.

Fine dust escaping into the shop

Likely causes
A filter bag with too coarse a rating, a torn filter, or a loose clamp at the bag or canister.
What our technician checks
The filter is inspected and seals are checked while the blower runs.

Loud rattle or vibration

Likely causes
A chunk of wood hitting the impeller, a loose or damaged impeller, or worn motor bearings.
What our technician checks
The impeller housing is opened and the impeller and bearings are inspected for damage and balance.

Motor will not start or trips the breaker

Likely causes
A failed start capacitor, a bad switch or magnetic starter, a seized impeller, or a circuit too small for the motor.
What our technician checks
The capacitor and switch are tested, the impeller is turned by hand, and voltage and amperage are measured.

Duct clog

Likely causes
Long stringy shavings or offcuts lodged at an elbow, a blast gate, or a flex hose that has collapsed.
What our technician checks
Each duct run is checked section by section for airflow and the blockage is cleared.

Poor suction at the tools

Likely causes
A clogged filter, a full collection bin or bag, too many blast gates open, or leaks at duct joints.
What our technician checks
The technician measures airflow at a tool port and inspects the filter, bin and duct joints for leaks.

Remote or automatic start not working

Likely causes
A dead remote battery, a failed receiver, or a current sensing switch that does not detect the tool.
What our technician checks
The remote and receiver are tested and the auto switch is checked with the tool running.
Before you call

Quick checks you can do safely

  • Empty the collection bin or lower bag before it is full.
  • Shake or brush the filter cartridge to free caked dust.
  • Open only the blast gate for the tool you are using.
  • Check flex hose for kinks or collapse.
  • Replace the remote battery if the unit does not respond.

Safety first: Fine wood dust is a fire and breathing hazard, so turn off and unplug the unit before reaching into the impeller or clearing clogs.

Can you repair my dust collection system the same day?

Which brands do you service?

Should I repair or replace my dust collection system?
