NOTICE

Safety Instructions for Machinery

SECTION 1: SAFETY

Model T28798 (Mfd. Since 12/18)

-7-

WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear

clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become

entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or

cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce

risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally

contacting cutting tool or moving parts.

HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery

operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or

long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust

hazards associated with each workpiece mate-

rial. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to

reduce your risk.

HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hear-

ing protection when operating or observing loud

machinery. Extended exposure to this noise

without hearing protection can cause permanent

hearing loss.

REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Tools left on

machinery can become dangerous projectiles

upon startup. Never leave chuck keys, wrenches,

or any other tools on machine. Always verify

removal before starting!

USE CORRECT TOOL FOR THE JOB. Only use

this tool for its intended purpose—do not force

it or an attachment to do a job for which it was

not designed. Never make unapproved modifica-

tions—modifying tool or using it differently than

intended may result in malfunction or mechanical

failure that can lead to personal injury or death!

AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing

and balance at all times when operating machine.

Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions

that make workpiece control difficult or increase

the risk of accidental injury.

CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and

bystanders at a safe distance from the work area.

Stop using machine if they become a distraction.

GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers reduce

accidental contact with moving parts or flying

debris. Make sure they are properly installed,

undamaged, and working correctly BEFORE

operating machine.

FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine.

It will do the job safer and better at the rate for

which it was designed.

NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury

may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting

tool is unintentionally contacted.

STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement dur-

ing operation greatly increases risk of injury or

loss of control. Before starting, verify machine is

stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.

USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult

this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for rec-

ommended accessories. Using improper acces-

sories will increase the risk of serious injury.

Additional Safety for Metal Dust Collectors

Long-term respiratory damage, metal toxicity, cancer, or birth defects can occur from improperly

using, setting up, or servicing machine, and using this machine without wearing a respirator.

Explosions or fire can result if machine is used to capture incorrect materials or if dust/waste

material is exposed to an ignition source. To reduce these risks, operator and bystanders MUST

completely heed the warnings below.

TOXIC METALS. Exposure (or over-exposure) to

certain types of metal dusts or fumes can result

in serious, potentially deadly health effects. To

reduce this risk, research toxicity of metal types

you work with and always seek to minimize/elimi-

nate exposure to yourself and others.

CLEANING DRAWERS. Wear safety goggles

and a NIOSH-approved respirator (rated for the

metal type) when emptying and cleaning col-

lection drawer and dust tray. Empty only into an

approved, closed-top metal container, taking care

to minimize amount of dust allowed to become

airborne. Prevent spread of dust onto hands or

clothing. Dispose of waste properly and according

to local regulations for material type.

HIGH-HAZARD MATERIAL. This machine does

NOT protect against highly hazardous materials,

such as lead dust, asbestos fibers, or radioactive

particles. These materials MUST be collected

with special filtration equipment because of their

high health/contamination hazard and difficulty of

filtration. DO NOT attempt to collect such materi-

als with this machine.

SAFE OPERATING LOCATION. DO NOT place

metal dust collector where it can be exposed to

rain or moisture. Exposure to water creates a

shock hazard and will reduce life of machine.

PROPERLY MAINTAIN MACHINE. Ke e p machine

in proper working condition to help ensure all

guards and components function as intended.

Perform routine inspections and all necessary

maintenance indicated in owner’s manual. Never

operate machine with damaged or worn parts.

Duct must be disconnected before service. Never

operate machine with filters or covers removed.

USE FOR INTENDED PURPOSE. This metal

dust collector is only designed to capture non-

combustible or non-explosible metal particles.

Collect only one type of metal/material at one

time. DO NOT use to capture materials made

from wood or wood products. DO NOT use it to

collect lead, magnesium, niobium, tantalum, tita-

nium, zirconium, hafnium, asbestos, crystalline

silica, gypsum, or any other non-metal products.

DO NOT use to capture welding fumes, gasses,

vapors, liquids, smoke, or ordinary combustible

materials. DO NOT connect this dust collector to

any machine using a coolant system.

WEAR PROPER PPE. Dust created from cutting,

grinding, sanding, etc. may cause cancer, birth

defects, or long-term respiratory damage. Be

aware of the dust hazards, exposure limits, and

toxicity associated with each type of workpiece

material being collected. Very fine dust/particles

may not be captured by filters and may become

airborne in the work area. Anyone working in this

same work area MUST wear a NIOSH-approved

respirator and eye protection rated for the work-

piece material.

RISK OF FIRE/EXPLOSIONS. To minimize static

electrical charge, only connect with smooth-

walled, sheet-metal ducting—do not use PVC.

Entire collection system (collector + ductwork)

must be bonded and grounded. Fine metal dust

particles can ignite, depending on material type

and circumstances. Know about and be prepared

to safely fight a combustible metal fire by conduct-

ing a combustible screening test under Chapter

4 of NFPA 484. Keep machine away from pilot

lights, open flames, or other ignition sources.

NEVER use near chemical fumes or within an

enclosed spray booth.

SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY

Availability

Before installing the machine, consider the avail-

ability and proximity of the required power supply

circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the

requirements for this machine, a new circuit must

be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,

fire, or equipment damage, installation work and

electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or

qualified service personnel in accordance with all

applicable codes and standards.

Electrocution, fire, shock,

or equipment damage

may occur if machine is

not properly grounded

and connected to power

supply.

Full-Load Current Rating

The full-load current rating is the amperage a

machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.

On machines with multiple motors, this is the

amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all

motors and electrical devices that might operate

at one time during normal operations.

Full-Load Current Rating at 240V ....... 9 Amps

The full-load current is not the maximum amount

of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine

is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond

the full-load rating.

If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length

of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—

especially if connected to an undersized circuit.

To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid over-

loading the machine during operation and make

sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that

meets the specified circuit requirements.

The full-load current rating is the amperage a

machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.

On machines with multiple motors, this is the

amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all

motors and electrical devices that might operate

at one time during normal operations.

For your own safety and protection of

property, consult an electrician if you are

unsure about wiring practices or electrical

codes in your area.

Note: Circuit requirements in this manual apply to

a dedicated circuit—where only one machine will

be running on the circuit at a time. If machine will

be connected to a shared circuit where multiple

machines may be running at the same time, con-

sult an electrician or qualified service personnel to

ensure circuit is properly sized for safe operation.

A power supply circuit includes all electrical

equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel

in the building and the machine. The power sup-

ply circuit used for this machine must be sized to

safely handle the full-load current drawn from the

machine for an extended period of time. (If this

machine is connected to a circuit protected by

fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)

Circuit Information

This machine is prewired to operate on a power

supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets

the following requirements:

Circuit Requirements for 240V

Nominal Voltage ......... 208V, 220V, 230V, 240V

Cycle ..........................................................60 Hz

Phase ........................................... Single-Phase

Power Supply Circuit ......................... 15 Amps

Plug/Receptacle ............................. NEMA 6-15

-10-

Model T28798 (Mfd. Since 12/18)

Extension Cords

We do not recommend using an extension cord

with this machine.

If you must use an extension

cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only

on a temporary basis.

Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can

damage electrical components and shorten motor

life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord

size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller

(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).

Any extension cord used with this machine must

be in good condition and contain a ground wire

and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must

meet the following size requirements:

Minimum Gauge Size ...........................14 AWG

Maximum Length (Shorter is Better).......50 ft.

SHOCK HAZARD!

Two-prong outlets do not meet the grounding

requirements for this machine. Do not modify

or use an adapter on the plug provided—if

it will not fit the outlet, have a qualified

electrician install the proper outlet with a

verified ground.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding

wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The

wire with green insulation (with or without yellow

stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair

or replacement of the power cord or plug is nec-

essary, do not connect the equipment-grounding

wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service per-

sonnel if you do not understand these grounding

requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether

the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice

that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, discon-

nect it from power, and immediately replace it with

a new one.

Grounding Requirements

This machine MUST be grounded. In the event

of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding

reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a

path of least resistance for electric current.

This machine is equipped with a power cord that

has an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding

plug. Only insert plug into a matching receptacle

(outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DO NOT modify the provided plug!

There are a number of options when it comes to

metal duct, but duct that is specially manufactured

for metal dust collection is the best choice. When

selecting your metal duct, choose high-quality

metal duct with smooth-welded internal seams

that will minimize airflow resistance. This type of

duct usually connects to other ducts or elbows

with a simple, self-sealing clamp, is very quick

and easy to assemble, and can be readily disman-

tled and re-installed. This is especially important

if you ever need to change things around in your

shop or add more tools.

Overview

Always guard against stat-

ic electrical build up by

grounding all collection

lines.

This dust collector is designed exclusively to col-

lect dry metal, chips, and swarf. DO NOT use this

dust collector to collect wood dust or metal chips

containing cutting fluid or coolant. Due to fire or

explosion risk, DO NOT use this machine to col-

lect combustible or explosive metals, magnesium,

niobium, tantalum, titanium, zirconium, hafnium,

combustible liquids or fuels, gasoline, or oil- or

solvent-based paints.

For best performance, place this dust collector

as close to dust-generating machines as possible

and install blast gates at the beginning of ducting

lines. Only open one line at a time to focus maxi-

mum suction at the machine where dust is being

collected.

Grizzly offers a complete line of dust collection

accessories for setting up your dust collection

system ductwork (see Page 21) and a complete

guide book titled Dust Collection Basics.

Whatever system design you choose, always

make sure to position ducting and collector away

from any open flames (including pilot lights);

otherwise you risk an explosion if material is dis-

persed into the air.

Duct Material

For best results, use only smooth-wall, sheet-

metal ducting or flexible metal ducting to connect

each machine.

The National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA)

warns of explosion or fire hazard because of static

electrical buildup if plastic or non-conductive duct

material is used for metal dust collection and is

not completely grounded and bonded. We DO

NOT recommend using any plastic duct material

with this machine.

Metal Ducting

Figure 11. Examples of metal duct and

components.

Advantages of metal ducting is its conductivity

and that it does not contribute to static electrical

charge build-up. However, static charges are still

produced when particles strike other dust par-

ticles as they move through the duct. Since metal

duct is a conductor, it can be grounded quite

easily to dissipate any static electrical charges.

Replace any plastic dust ports with sheet-metal

equivalents, or bond sheet metal ducting to metal

frame of machine with grounding wire.

Avoid inferior metal duct that requires you to cut it

to length and snap it together. This type of duct is

time-consuming to install because it requires you

to seal all the seams with silicone and screw the

components on the ends with sheet-metal screws.

Another disadvantage is the rough internal seams

and crimped ends that unavoidably increase static

pressure loss.

Figure 12. Example of flexible metal duct.

Flexible Duct

Flexible hose is generally used for short runs and

at rigid duct-to-machine connections. The supe-

rior choice here is metal flex hose that is designed

to be flexible, yet be as smooth as possible inside

to reduce static pressure loss. DO NOT use dryer

vent hose because it tends to collapse.

Ensure Required CFM at Machine

Since each machine produces a different amount

of dust, the requirements for the minimum amount

of CFM to move that dust is unique to the machine.

Knowing this required CFM is important to gaug-

ing what size duct to use.

For best results when using the Y-inlet, we recom-

mend installing blast gates to control airflow for

each line near the Y-inlet.

machines based on dust port size.

Refer to Figure 13 for a close estimation of the

airflow each dust-producing machine requires.

Machines that generate the most dust should be

placed as close as possible to the dust collector.

Always guard against

static electrical build up

by grounding all dust

collection lines.

System Grounding

To guard against static electrical buildup, we

strongly recommend replacing any plastic dust

ports on dust-producing machines with metal

equivalents.

If you absolutely must use any plastic duct or

components, they must be completely grounded

and bonded to the metal frame of a grounded

machine by wrapping the flex hose with an exter-

nal ground wire connected to both machines as

shown in Figure 14. Ensure that each machine is

continuously grounded to the grounding terminal

in your electric service panel.

bond ducting with a grounding wire.
