Machine Description  
The Model W1823 is a 2-stage cyclone dust collector designed to capture dust from woodworking  
machines.  
The pleated cartridge filter provides a large surface area and has a built-in cleaning mechanism that  
loosens built-up dust to maintain filter efficiency. The included 4"x 6" Y-adapter allows the machine  
to connect to multiple machines or various dust collection accessories. This machine is intended for  
collecting dust from one large machine or two small machines at a time (depends on size of dust port  
and length of ducting).  
A radio-frequency remote control allows the dust collector to be operated from virtually anywhere in  
the shop. Casters on the dust collector stand and collection drum enable the unit to move easily around  
the shop. A clear window on the collection drum allows monitoring of the internal sawdust level. Also, a  
quick release lever makes it easy to remove the collection drum lid when cleaning.

8GGIFM<;ꢀFG<I8K@FE% Untrained operators  
can be seriously hurt by machinery. Only  
allow trained or properly supervised people  
to use machine. When machine is not being  
used, disconnect power, remove switch keys,  
or lock-out machine to prevent unauthorized  
use—especially around children. Make  
workshop kid proof!  
E<M<IꢀJK8E;ꢀFEꢀD8:?@E<% Serious injury or  
accidental contact with cutting tool may  
occur if machine is tipped. Machine may be  
damaged.  
JK89C<ꢀD8:?@E<% Unexpected movement during

Model W1823 (Mfg. Since 9/10)  
Additional Safety for Dust Collectors  
@EK<E;<;ꢀLJ<% This dust collector is only  
intended for collecting wood dust and chips  
from woodworking machines. DO NOT use  
this dust collector to collect metal, dirt,  
pebbles, drywall, asbestos, lead paint,  
silica, liquids, aerosols, or any flammable,  
combustible, or hazardous materials.  
<DGKP@E>ꢀ;LJK% When emptying dust from  
the collection container, wear a respirator  
and safety glasses. Empty dust away from  
ignition sources and into an approved  
container.  
=@I<ꢀJLGGI<JJ@FE% Only operate the dust  
collector in locations that contain a  
fire suppression system or have a fire  
extinguisher nearby.  
FG<I8K@E>ꢀCF:8K@FE% To reduce respiratory  
exposure to fine dust, locate permanently  
installed dust collectors away from the  
working area, or in another room that is  
equipped with a smoke detector. DO NOT  
operate the dust collector in rainy or wet  
locations—exposure to water may create a  
shock hazard or decrease machine life.  
JLJG<E;<;ꢀ;LJKꢀG8IK@:C<Jꢀ8E;ꢀ@>E@K@FEꢀ  
JFLI:<J% DO NOT operate the dust collector  
in areas where explosion risks are high. Areas  
of high risk include, but are not limited to,  
areas near pilot lights, open flames, or other  
ignition sources.  
;@J:FEE<:K@E>ꢀGFN<IꢀJLGGCP% Turn the  
switch F==, disconnect the dust collector  
from the power supply, and allow the  
impeller to completely stop before  
leaving the machine unattended or doing  
any service, cleaning, maintenance, or  
adjustments.  
8MF@;@E>ꢀJG8IBJ% DO NOT allow steel or rocks  
to strike the impeller—this may produce  
sparks. Sparks can smolder in wood dust  
for a long time before a fire is detected. If  
you accidentally cut into wood containing  
tramp metal (nails, staples, spikes, etc.),  
immediately turn F== the dust collector,  
disconnect it from power, and wait for the  
impeller to stop—then empty the collection  
container into an approved airtight metal  
container.  
@DG<CC<Iꢀ?8Q8I;J% DO NOT place your hands  
or tools near the open inlet during operation  
for any reason. The powerful suction could  
easily cause accidental contact with the  
impeller, which will cause serious personal  
injury or damage to the machine. Always  
keep small animals and children away from  
open dust collection inlets.  
JK8K@:ꢀ<C<:KI@:@KP% High amounts of static  
electricity are generated when plastic  
ducting is used for dust collection lines.  
Although rare, sparks caused by static  
electricity can cause explosions or fire. To  
reduce this risk, thoroughly ground all plastic  
ducting used in the dust collection system.  
?8Q8I;FLJꢀ;LJKÇN<8IꢀI<JG@I8KFI% Fine  
dust that is too small to be caught in the  
filter will be blown into the ambient air  
during operation. Always wear a NIOSH-  
approved respirator during operation and  
for a short time after to reduce your risk of  
permanent respiratory damage.  
I<>LC8Iꢀ:C<8E@E>% Regularly check/empty the  
collection bags or drum to avoid buildup of  
fine dust that can increase the risk of fire.  
Make sure to regularly clean the surrounding  
area where the machine is operated—  
;LJKꢀ8CC<I>@<J% Dust from certain woods may  
cause an allergic reaction in people and  
animals. Make sure you know what type of  
wood dust you will be exposed to in case  
there is a possibility of an allergic reaction.  
excessive dust buildup on overhead lights,  
heaters, electrical panels, or other heat  
sources will increase the risk of fire.

A power supply circuit includes all electrical equipment  
between the main breaker box or fuse panel in the  
building and the incoming power connections at the  
machine. The power supply 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.  
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.

Grounding Requirements  
In the event of certain types of malfunctions or  
breakdowns, grounding provides a path of least resistance  
for electric current to travel—in order to reduce the risk  
of electric shock.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding wire will  
increase the risk of electric shock. The wire with green  
insulation (with/without yellow stripes) is the equipment-  
grounding wire. If repair or replacement of the power  
cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-  
grounding wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.

Extension Cords  
We do not recommend using an extension cord with this  
machine. Extension cords cause voltage drop, which may  
damage electrical components and shorten motor life.  
Voltage drop increases with longer extension cords and  
the gauge smaller gauge sizes (higher gauge numbers  
indicate smaller sizes).  
Any extension cord used with this machine must contain a  
ground wire, match the required plug and receptacle, and  
meet the following requirements:  
Minimum Gauge Size at 110V ......................12 AWG  
Minimum Gauge Size at 220V ......................14 AWG  
Maximum Length (Shorter is Better) ................50 ft.

Machine Placement  
Weight Load  
Physical Environment  
Refer to the Machine Specifications for the  
weight of your machine. Make sure that the  
surface upon which the machine is placed will  
bear the weight of the machine, additional  
equipment that may be installed on the  
machine, and the heaviest workpiece that will  
be used. Additionally, consider the weight of  
the operator and any dynamic loading that may  
occur when operating the machine.  
The physical environment where your machine is  
operated is important for safe operation and the  
longevity of its components. For best results,  
operate this machine in a dry environment  
that is free from excessive moisture, hazardous  
chemicals, airborne abrasives, or extreme  
conditions. Extreme conditions for this type  
of machinery are generally those where the  
ambient temperature range exceeds 41°–104°F;  
the relative humidity range exceeds 20–95%  
(non-condensing); or the environment is subject  
to vibration, shocks, or bumps.  
Space Allocation  
Consider the largest size of workpiece that  
will be processed through this machine and  
provide enough space around the machine  
for adequate operator material handling or  
the installation of auxiliary equipment. With  
permanent installations, leave enough space  
around the machine to open or remove doors/  
covers as required by the maintenance and  
service described in this manual. See below for  
required space allocation.  
Electrical Installation  
Place this machine near an existing power  
source. Make sure all power cords are protected  
from traffic, material handling, moisture,  
chemicals, or other hazards. Make sure to leave  
access to a means of disconnecting the power  
source or engaging a lockout/tagout device.  
Lighting  
Lighting around the machine must be adequate  
enough that operations can be performed  
safely. Shadows, glare, or strobe effects that

COLLECTION SYSTEM  
System Setup  
The Model W1823 is designed to collect dust from one  
large machine or two small machines at a time. This can  
be accomplished by either connecting it to one machine at  
a time or by connecting it to multiple machines and using  
blast gates to isolate different dust lines. This machine  
also works quite well as a point-of-use dust collector.  
Tips for Optimum Performance  
Keep ducts between the dust collector and machines  
as short as possible.  
Note that flex hose reduces CFM more than smooth-  
walled duct.  
Keep ducting directional changes to a minimum. The  
more curved fittings you use, the more resistance to  
flow, resulting in loss of suction.  
Gradual directional changes are more efficient than  
sudden directional changes (i.e. use 45° elbows in  
place of 90° elbows whenever possible).  
Use smooth-walled duct whenever possible.  
The simpler the system, the more efficient and less  
costly it will be.  
If the dust collector is attached to a 2" or 212  
"
collection port, open another blast gate to increase  
the amount of CFM or airflow to maintain proper  
cyclonic action and dust separation.

Duct Material  
You have many choices regarding main line and branch  
line duct material. For best results, use metal duct for  
the main line and branch lines, then use a short length  
of flexible hose to connect each machine to the branch  
lines.  
Plastic duct is also a popular material for home shops.  
However, be aware that there is a fire or explosion hazard  
if plastic duct material is used for dust collection without  
being grounded against static electrical charge build-up.  
This topic will be discussed later in the manual.  
Metal Duct  
The advantage of metal duct (Figure 26) is its  
conductivity, and it does not contribute to static  
electrical charge build-up. However, static charges are  
still produced when dust particles strike other dust  
particles as they move through the duct. Since metal duct  
is a conductor, it can be grounded quite easily to dissipate  
any static electrical charges.  
There are quite a number of options when it comes to  
metal duct, but metal duct that is specially manufactured  
for 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 dismantled and  
re-installed with no problems. This is especially important  
if you ever need to change things around in your shop or  
add more tools.  
Figure 26. Examples of metal pipe and  
components.  
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.

Model W1823 (Mfg. Since 9/10)  
Flexible Duct  
Flexible hose is generally used for short runs, small shops  
and at rigid duct-to-tool connections. There are many  
different types of flex hose on the market today. These  
are manufactured from materials such as polyethylene,  
PVC, cloth hose dipped in rubber and even metal,  
including steel and aluminum.  
The superior choice here is metal flex hose that is  
designed to be flexible, yet be as smooth as possible to  
reduce static pressure loss.  
There are also many kinds of pure plastic flexible hose,  
such as non-perforated drainage type hose and dryer vent  
hose. Drainage type hose, while being economical, does  
not quite have the flexibility required for dust collection.  
The inside of the duct is also deeply corrugated and  
can increase the static pressure loss by as much as 50%  
over smooth wall duct. Dryer vent hose, while being  
completely flexible, is non-resistant to abrasion and has  
a tendency to collapse in a negative pressure system. We  
DO NOT recommend using dryer drainage-type vent hose  
in your dust collection system.  
Figure 27. Example of flexible metal duct.  
If using flex-hose, you should choose one of the many  
types that are designed specifically for the movement  
of solid particles, i.e. dust, grains and plastics. However,  
the cost of specifically designed flexible duct can vary  
greatly. For example, polyethylene hose is well suited for  
the removal of particulate matter, especially sawdust,  
since it is durable and completely flexible. Also, it is very  
economical and available in a wide variety of diameters  
and lengths for most applications.  
Plastic Duct  
The popularity of plastic duct (Figure 28) is due to the  
fact that it is an economical and readily available product.  
It is also simple to assemble and easily sealed against air  
loss. The primary disadvantage of plastic duct for dust  
collection is the inherent danger of static electrical build-  
up.

components.

Model W1823 (Mfg. Since 9/10)  
System Grounding  
Since plastic hose is abundant, relatively inexpensive,  
easily assembled and air tight, it is a very popular  
material for conveying dust from woodworking machines  
to the dust collector. We recommend using flexible hose  
(flex-hose) to connect the woodworking machine to the  
dust collector. However, plastic flex-hose and plastic duct  
are an insulator, and dust particles moving against the  
walls of the plastic duct create a static electrical build  
up. This charge will build until it discharges to a ground.  
If a grounding medium is not available to prevent static  
electrical build up, the electrical charge will arc to the  
nearest grounded source. This electrical discharge may  
cause an explosion and subsequent fire inside the system.  
Always guard against static electrical  
build up by grounding all dust  
collection lines.  
To protect against static electrical build up inside a non-  
conducting duct, a bare copper wire should be placed  
inside the duct along its length and grounded to the dust  
collector. You must also confirm that the dust collector  
is continuously grounded through the electrical circuit to  
the electric service panel.  
If you connect the dust collector to more than one  
machine by way of a non-conducting branching duct  
system and blast gates, the system must still be  
grounded as mentioned above. We recommend inserting  
a continuous bare copper ground wire (Figure 29) inside  
the entire duct system and attaching the wire to each  
grounded woodworking machine and dust collector.

Be sure that you extend the bare copper wire down all  
branches of the system. Do not forget to connect the  
wires to each other with wire nuts when two branches  
meet at a “Y” or “T” connection.  
Figure 29. Flex-hose grounded to

Ensure that the entire system is grounded. If using plastic  
blast gates to direct air flow, the grounding wire must  
be jumped (Figure 30) around the blast gate without  
interruption to the grounding system.

We also recommend wrapping the outside of all plastic  
ducts with bare copper wire to ground the outside of the  
system against static electrical build up. Wire connections  
at Y's and T's should be made with wire nuts.

Attach the bare ground wire to each stationary  
woodworking machine and attach the dust collector frame  
with a ground screw, as shown in Figure 29. Ensure that  
each machine is continuously grounded to the grounding  
terminal in your electric service panel.

Model W1823 (Mfg. Since 9/10)  
OPERATIONS  
General Operation  
The Model W1823 is designed to be a point-of-source dust  
collector system, and is capable of collecting dust from  
one large machine or two small machines at a time.  
Damage to your eyes, lungs, and ears  
could result from using this machine  
without proper protective gear. Always  
wear safety goggles, a respirator, and  
hearing protection when operating this  
machine.  
This cyclone dust collector creates a vortex from incoming  
air that extracts most dust particles and drops them into  
the steel collection drum below, while the remaining fine  
dust (see Figure 31) travels past the impeller and into the  
canister filter. The filter is made of spun-bond polyester,  
which catches 99.9% of particles from 0.2 to 2 microns in  
size, and is pleated to provide maximum surface area for  
efficient airflow.  
The canister filter is equipped with a cleaning mechanism  
inside that loosens built-up dust so it falls into the bag  
below, which improves airflow for a well-used filter.

Remote Control  
Operation  
An RF (radio frequency) remote control receiver (Figure  
32) and hand-held control (Figure 33) allow the dust  
collector to be turned ON and OFF from more than  
75-feet away or from another room. The range will vary  
depending upon the density of materials between the  
receiver and the control, and the power level of the  
battery in the remote.  
Receiver  
(In Magnetic  
Switch Box)  
Note: If you need to have one remote simultaneously  
control more than one Model W1823 dust collector, you  
can reprogram additional dust collector receivers to  
recognize the remote control currently being used. Refer  
to Remote Control Reprogramming on Page 29 to do  
this.

MAINTENANCE  
General  
No maintenance such as bearing lubrication is required  
on this machine. But it is important to empty the drum  
and clean the filter during use. To catch any potential  
problems, make it a habit to inspect your machine  
before and after you use it.  
MAKE SURE that your machine is  
unplugged during all maintenance pro-  
cedures! And Always wear goggles and  
a respirator when emptying the dust  
collection bags. Sawdust may cause  
allergic reactions or respiratory prob-  
lems.  
Check for the following conditions and repair or  
replace when necessary:  
Check loose mounting bolts and ducting.  
Check worn or damaged wires.  
Check system for leaks.  
Check for tears in the filter or bags.  
Look for any other unsafe condition.  
Filter  
Cleaning  
Handle  
Emptying Drum  
Empty the collection drum when it is approximately 3/4  
full as seen through the viewing window. If the drum  
is overfilled, dust will be sucked into the inlet cylinder  
and pass through to the filter. Sawdust and wood chips  
collected from different machines will require you to  
adjust the frequency of inspections.  
Quick Release  
Clamping Lever  
Canister  
Dust Bag  
To empty the sawdust from the drum, use the clamping  
lever (see Figure 35) on the drum lid to lift the lid and  
roll the drum out for emptying.  
To empty the canister bag, use the canister quick release  
clamp to remove and dump the bag. The bags may be  
reused several times. We do not recommend using plain  
garbage bags as the wall thickness is insufficient to  
prevent blow-out.

Normal Filter Cleaning  
Your cyclone dust collector has a set of paddles inside the  
filter for cleaning. This paddle system is controlled by the  
filter cleaning handle (see Figure 35). To clean the filter,  
simply rotate the handle left and right, so the paddles  
ripple against the internal filter pleats and knock off the  
caked-on dust. The dust will then fall into the collection  
bag below. During heavy sanding operations, the canister  
may have to be cleaned this way several times during  
the day. Periodically inspect the bag, the quick release  
clamp, and the canister filter for evidence of any leakage  
or tears. If damage is found, immediately replace as  
required. Refer to SERVICE for major filter cleaning.

General  
This section covers the most common service adjustments  
or procedures that may need to be made during the life  
of your machine. If you require additional machine service  
not included in this section, please contact Woodstock

MAKE SURE that your machine  
is unplugged during all service  
procedures! And Always wear goggles  
and a respirator when emptying the  
dust collection bags. Sawdust may  
cause allergic reactions or respiratory  
problems.  
Major Filter Cleaning  
NOTICE  
Using compressed air for cleaning or drying can tear  
the filter element. Using soapy water or solvents can  
also leave residue behind that attracts and bonds  
dust particles to the filter, resulting in a permanently  
clogged filter. ONLY use the cleaning handle, a soft  
brush, or plain water to clean the inside of the can-  
ister filter.  
Filter  
Cleaning  
Handle  
Use the filter cleaning handle for an initial filter cleaning.  
Next put on safety goggles and a respirator, and remove  
and empty the canister dust collection bag. To reach deep  
in the pleat-valleys, you can use a straw brush or stiff  
paint brush.  
For extremely dirty filters, the filter can be carefully  
rinsed out with warm water and allowed to air dry.  
However, never leave the filter in the sun to dry or it  
could shrink and distort. Washing the filter when the  
ambient temperature is below 65 degrees or placing the  
wet filter in a closed environment without ventilation to  
dry can cause mold to grow between the filter pleats.  
If possible, use a fan to assist in the drying process, and  
never use compressed air to clean or blow-dry the filter.
