12.DO NOT force tool. The machine will do a safer and better job at the rate for which it was
designed.
13.Allergic reaction to wood dust. Be aware that certain woods may cause an allergic reaction in
people and animals, especially when exposed to fine dust. Make sure you know what type of wood
dust you will be exposed to and the possibility of an allergic reaction. Always wear an approved
respirator when operating this machine.
14.Use the correct tool. DO NOT force machine or attachment to do a job for which it was not
designed.
15.Wear proper apparel. DO NOT wear loose clothing, neck ties, gloves, jewelry, and secure long
hair away from moving parts.
16.Remove rags and tools. Before turning the machine on, make it a habit to remove all tools and
make sure the area is clean.
17.Avoid using an extension cord. If you use an extension cord with an undersized gauge or one
that is too long, excessive heat will be generated within the circuit, increasing the chance of a
fire, or damage to the circuit. Always examine the extension cord to ensure it is in good condi-
tion. Immediately replace a damaged extension cord. And always use an extension cord that uses a
ground pin and connected ground wire.
18.Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

System Grounding
Under some circumstances, static electricity can be
generated in dust collection systems and can collect on
the plastic ducting surfaces. If this static electricity is
discharged through a spark, there is a potential for the
dust and oxygen in the ducting to ignite.
Therefore, your dust collection system must be grounded
one of three ways.
•
First, the ground is achieved by means of using
metal ducting throughout the system. All static
electricity buildup is carried through the continu
ous metal ducting and dissipated through the dust
collector impeller housing.
Figure 21. Typical dust collector with
ground wire installed inside and around
pipe.
•
Second, for plastic pipe or hose ducting systems,
install an uncoated bare copper wire inside
the entire length of all ducting. An additional
wire must be spiral-wrapped on the outside of
all the ducting (see Figure 21). Both wires must
be connected to the dust collector impeller hous-
ing (see Figure 22) so all static electricity inside
and out of the ducting is carried through the
wires and dissipated through the dust collector
ground.
If the system has branches, place wires in the
same fashion and connect to the wires on the
main pipe/hose with wire nuts. If blast gates
are to be used, drill exit and entrance holes on
either side of the blast gate to allow wire to be
fed out of and into the system (see Figure 23).
Figure 22. Typical dust collector impeller
housing with ground wires secured to
the housing.
•
Third, if you use a combination of metal and
plastic ducting, make sure that you use a copper
grounding wire to ground all plastic connections
with the metal ducting so no part of the ducting
is insulated by the plastic.
Note: For more in-depth information on Dust Collection
System design, refer to refer to The Dust Collection
Handbook (ISBN 0-9635821-2-7), which is available for
purchase through any Woodstock/SHOP FOX® Dealer.

Test Run
Once assembly is complete and adjustments are done to
your satisfaction, you are ready to test run the machine.
To test run the dust collector, do these steps:
1. Make sure the paddle switch is pushed in the down
or OFF position.
2. Make sure all the dust collection ducting and fas-
teners are tight, and that no parts or tools will get
sucked into the dust collection intake.
DO NOT investigate problems or adjust
the dust collector while it is running.
Wait until the machine is turned off,
unplugged, and all working parts have
come to a complete stop before you
proceed!
3. Plug in the power cord.
4. Flip the START paddle upward and keep your finger
poised over the paddle for a quick power kill, just
in case there is a problem.
The dust collector should run smoothly, with little
or no vibration or rubbing noises.
• If you hear strange or unusual noises, or a loud
vibration exists, turn off the dust collector
and wait for all moving parts to stop. Unplug the
machine, refer to Troubleshooting on Page 25,
and investigate and correct the problem before
further operation.
• If the source of the problem is not an easy fix,
contact our Technical Support Department
for help at (360)-734-3482 or via tech-

OPERATIONS
General
Many of these operations can be dangerous or deadly
if performed incorrectly. The instructions in this sec-
tion are written with the understanding that the opera-
tor has the necessary knowledge and skills to operate
this machine. If at any time you are experiencing
difficulties performing any operation, stop using the
machine! If you are an inexperienced operator, we
strongly recommend that you read books, trade articles,
or seek training from an experienced dust collector
operator before performing any unfamiliar operations.
Above all, your safety should come first!
Dust collectors do not eliminate the
fine, and most harmful, dust from
the workshop. Always wear a NIOSH
approved respirator to help protect
yourself from the respiratory dangers
caused by the inhalation of fine dust.
Operation
This dust collector is designed for collecting wood dust
from woodworking machines. The Model W1666 will draw
up to 1550 CFM, and the Model W1685 will draw up to
1280 CFM. The dust collectors are not designed to be
used as central whole-house vacuums. Central vacuum
systems and woodshop dust collection systems have
completely different vacuum pumps and are not inter-
changeable. For safe operation and the best dust collec-
tion results, please follow the rules below:
•
ALWAYS wear a NIOSH approved respirator to help
protect yourself from the respiratory dangers caused
by the inhalation of fine dust. Dust collectors do not
eliminate the fine, and most harmful, dust from the
workshop.
•
•
DO NOT collect metal pieces, glass, or liquid with
this dust collector. It is intended for collecting wood
dust only (Figure 25). Metal pieces may spark when
they contact the impeller and cause a fire.
Figure 25. DO NOT collect metal pieces,
glass, or liquid with this dust collector.
USE a 4" dust collection hose that is as short as pos-
sible. Remember, the longer the hose, and the more
bends in the ducting, the less CFM your dust collec-
tor will draw.
•
•
LIMIT the use of 90˚ elbows or 45˚ elbows. These
fittings will decrease the overall efficiency of the
dust collector.
GROUND your dust collection hose to protect against
unpleasant static shock, and in the worst case, an
accidental fire.

replace when necessary:
•
Worn or damaged switch, switch-safety key, electri-
cal cords and plugs.
•
Loose mounting bolts, loud rubbing, vibration or
tapping noises coming from motor or impeller hous-
ing.
MAKE SURE that your machine is
unplugged during all maintenance pro-
cedures! If this warning is ignored, seri-
ous personal injury may occur.
•
•

W1666, W1685 Dust Collectors
Accessories
Below are some of the accessories that work well with this dust collector. If you do not have a dealer
in your area, these products are also available through online dealers. Please call or e-mail Woodstock
International Inc. Customer Service to get a current listing of dealers at: (800)-840-8420 or at
Quick Disconnect (Model W1038)
This is the perfect accessory for those who will use the
dust collector for multiple machines. The quick discon-
nect is designed to attach to a 4" hose and press-on to
any 4" diameter dust port. The quick disconnect works
with a friction fit to eliminate constant tightening/loosen-
ing hose clamps.
Universal Adapter (Model W1039)
Providing options for seven different sizes, this univer-
sal adapter allows you to connect your dust collector to
machines with dust ports smaller than 4". This is a "must-
have" for miter saws or when connecting your dust collec-
tor to common vacuum hoses.
Remote Switch (Model D3038 110V or Model
D3346 220V)
Turn your dust collector ON or OFF from up to 75 feet
away. The Model D3038 remote switch controls 110V-
20A dust collectors up to 11/2 HP, and the Model D3346
remote switch controls 220V-20A dust collectors up to 3
HP.
Grounding Kit (Model W1053)
All dust collectors generate static electricity in the duct-
ing system. If a series of conditions are in place, and the
dust collection ducting is not grounded, a spark from
static electricity buildup could ignite the fine wood dust
particles in the dust collector. To reduce this ignition haz-
ard, install a grounding kit.
Deluxe Ceiling Mounted Air Cleaner (Model
W1690)
Air cleaners are a great solution for removing airborne
dust particles. This air cleaner has three speeds (556,
702, and 1,044 CFM) and a primary and secondary filter
to remove dust particles as small as 2.5 Micron. Install
this air cleaner on a work bench, on a wall, or suspend it
from your shop ceiling.
