This machine must be properly grounded to help prevent electrical shock and possible fatal injury. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor, with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes, is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only three wire extension cords that have three-prong grounding plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the tools plug. Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately. 115 Volt Operation The Air Filtration Unit is ready to run at 115 volt operation. It is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet and a plug similar to the one illustrated in Figure A. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter as illustrated in Figure B, may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle, as shown in Figure B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should only be used until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. This adapter is not applicable in Canada. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or tab, extending from the adapter, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box, as shown in Figure B. Figure A Figure B If an extension cord is necessary, make sure the cord rating is suitable for the filtration units listed amperage. An undersize cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Use the chart in Figure C as a general guide in choosing the correct size cord. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. Cord Length (115V operation) Cord Gauge 16 AWG 16 AWG 14 AWG 12 AWG 25 50 100 150 Figure C 7 any damage. Report Unpacking Inspect the air filtration unit and check for shipping damage immediately to your distributor and shipping agent. Do not discard any shipping material until the Air Filtration Unit is installed and running properly. Compare the contents of your container with the following parts list to make sure all parts are intact. Missing parts, if any, should be reported to your distributor. Contents of the Shipping Container 1 Air Filtration Unit 1 Remote Control with Mounting Bracket 1 9 Volt Battery 4 Eye Bolts 4 Hex Nuts 4 Flat Washers 1 Owner's Manual 1 Warranty Card Assembly Refer to Figure 1. Tools required: 10mm wrench and cross-point screwdriver 1. Remove both filter guards by pulling out on the tabs so that they clear the slots in the sides of the cabinet. 2. Remove the outer filter and inner filter

(intake side) and the diffusion filter (exhaust side). Remove any protective plastic from these items. 3. Remove all styrofoam packing from inside the cabinet. 4. Re-install the filters and filter guards in proper order. The filters at the intake side should be placed inside the retaining plate on the cabinet.

(The inner filter has an arrow printed on it to show direction of air flow; make sure it is facing the proper direction when installed.) 5. Remove the four screws on top of the cabinet. Install the four eye bolts with hex nuts and washers into the threaded holes. Screw each eye bolt into the cabinet; turn it to desired position then tighten the hex nut against the cabinet with a 10mm wrench. Installation The unit must be anchored to a building structure which will support a minimum of 100 pounds. Never mount to surfaces such as dry wall or false ceiling grids, etc. If mounting to ceiling, make sure chain and ceiling hooks are properly rated for hanging this unit. Clearance should be at least 7 feet from bottom of unit to the floor. This unit will work best if located away from corners and heating/cooling vents. Controls and Features Refer to Figure 2. The Air Filtration Unit can be operated by either the remote transmitter or the control panel on the cabinet. The remote transmitter uses radio frequency, and thus is not limited by line-of-sight operation. Fuse The fuse switch will pop out in case of overload. Wait 3 to 5 minutes and push the fuse switch back in. Speed The unit will always start on low speed. On the remote, press the up or down button to change speed. Or, on the control panel, press and release the Speed button. Timer Press the timer button on the remote (the timer indicator will start flashing). Then press the up or down button to scroll to the desired time (from 1 to 9 hours). Press the timer button again the indicator will stop flashing. The unit will operate for the programmed time, at the end of which it will automatically shut off. Note: If the timer function is not used, the filtration unit will continue to operate until the off button is pressed. Change Filter The Change Filter indicator will light up after 200 hours of operation to remind the operator to inspect and to clean/replace filters if needed. To turn off the indicator light, press the Reset switch using a thin object, such as a ball point pen or paper clip. 8 Figure 1 Figure 2 Operation NOTE: The Air Filtration Unit is designed to remove airborne non-metallic dust particles; it is not designed to take the place of a dust collection system. Larger particles are trapped by the outer filter. Smaller particles are stopped by the fine mesh bags of the inner filter. The air is then exhausted through the diffusion filter, which has a fibrous composition to help diffuse the air. General information:

15.203 -The Transmitter shall not be collocated with other transmitters or antennas. 2.1091&2.1093 - To comply with FCC RF expo-

sure compliance requirements, a separation distance of at least 20 cm must be maintained between the antenna of this device and all persons. This Transmitter must not be collocated or operating in conjunction whit any other antenna or transmitter. Changing Filters Refer to Figure 1 Disconnect (unplug) the air filtration unit from the power source before servicing or changing filters. There are two filters that need to be cleaned and/or replaced periodically, depending upon the amount of use and the environment of your shop. Using clogged filters will diminish the overall efficiency of the unit. The outer filter is disposable, but its life can be extended by occasional use of a shop vac or compressed air to clean off the dust. For 9 filter The diffusion filter will not need replacing. It should be inspected occasionally, and if needed, cleaned by light vacuuming or compressed air.

(An optional charcoal diffusion filter stock no. 1791083 may be purchased, and is used to reduce non-volatile fumes or odors.) maximum efficiency, however, a dirty outer filter should be discarded and replaced with a new one.
