W696: The best buy in our Hobby range of wood dust and chip extractors, this amazingly low priced unit brings affordable dust control to the woodworking enthusiast.
It is a portable floor standing unit intended for the one-man workshop and can be connected to any bench top machine or floor standing machine such as bandsaws, planer thicknessers, table saws. The inclusion of the floor sweeping attachment means it can easily be used to clean up the workshop floor.
The induction motor ensures that noise levels are kept to a minimum. Dust and chippings are all collected in the transparent collection bag which when full can either be emptied and refitted or disposed of and a replacement fitted. The extractor is finished in a tough paint job to keep its looks for many years.
The standard cloth filtration bag is replaced with a cartridge to increase the filtration performance down to a super fine, 1 micron particle size. The extra deep pleats in the filter material, increase the surface area of the filter so that there is no loss in air flow compared to the original cloth filter.
This allows the extractor to be used for operations which produce very fine dust such as sanding and cutting MDF. The particle size of fine woodworking dust is generally between 2 and 3 microns. Research shows 99% of wood dust, produced by machining softwood, hardwood or MDF, is within that range. The extractor can still be used with all the normal workshop machines which produce dust and chips, such as: bandsaws, table saws, planers, thicknessers and spindle moulders.
To ensure a long life without any deterioration in performance the filter includes an internal cleaning device. Gently rotating the handle, moves the internal paddles which clean the inside of the filter and prevent clogging.
Supplied with steel fan, 2 metre length of flexible hose, transparent plastic collection bag with quick release metal strap, floor sweep attachment, castors, NVR switch, 2.1m cable and UK 3 pin plug.
The maximum running time for this machine is 2 hours without rest. If you are a professional user who needs continuous extraction, please see the equivalent machine in our professional range W796CF.
Please Note : Hose is Left Hand thread so for quick connector use 100QCL
How Often Should The Filter Be Cleaned?
To maintain optimum performance, we recommend: Every time the extractor is turned off, or every 15 minutes during prolonged periods of running. It can be cleaned whilst the extractor is still running.
What Is A Cleaning Cycle?
Rotate the handle 2 full turns in each direction.
What Are The Symptoms Of A Clogged Filter?
1) Because the air cannot escape from inside the extractor there is a build up of pressure inside. Air will be forced out of joins and seals which are normally airtight. Dust might be seen leaking out from unexpected places.
2) There will be a significant drop in airflow, and therefore collection performance, of the extractor.
We also have a large range of accessories available for connecting your dust extractor to the dust producing machinery. Reducers to join the 100mm diameter hose to the smaller diameter outlets usually found on bench top machinery. Hoods to collect dust from machinery with no purpose made collection points.
