Safety Instructions for Power Tools
9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condi-
tion. Conductor size should be in accor-
dance with the chart below. The amperage
rating should be listed on the motor or tool
nameplate. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. Your extension
cord must also contain a ground wire and
plug pin. Always repair or replace exten-
sion cords if they become damaged.
15. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the instruction manual for recom-
mended accessories. The use of improper
accessories may cause risk of injury.
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTION-
AL STARTING. On machines with mag-
netic contact starting switches there is a
risk of starting if the machine is bumped or
jarred. Always disconnect from power
source before adjusting or servicing. Make
sure switch is in OFF position before
reconnecting.

18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before fur-
ther use of the tool, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function.
Check for alignment of moving parts, bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that
may affect its operation. A guard or other
part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced.

10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. DO NOT
wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties,
rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may
get caught in moving parts. Non-slip
footwear is recommended. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also
use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have
impact resistant lenses, they are NOT
safety glasses.
19. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT-
TENDED. TURN POWER OFF. DO NOT
leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to
hold work when practical. It is safer than

Additional Safety For Dust Collectors
1. THIS DUST COLLECTOR IS TO BE USED
FOR WOOD DUST COLLECTION ONLY.
Do not use this dust collector to pick up liq-
uids and metal scrap including, but not lim-
ited to, nails and filings. Metallic debris will
contact the spinning impeller and could
spark. The spark could then cause a saw-
dust explosion and severe fire hazard. Also,
do not pick up material which cannot safely
pass through the impeller such as solid
wood scraps.
5. DO NOT ALLOW STEEL TO STRIKE
AGAINST IMPELLER WHICH MAY PRO-
DUCE A SPARK. Sparks can smolder in
wood dust for a long time before fire or
flame is detected. If metal contacts metal
during operation, immediately turn off the
dust collector, unplug the power cord from
the outlet or flip the disconnect switch and
wait for all moving parts to stop. Remove
collection bags and empty the dust into an
approved air tight metal container in case of
spark. Remedy the metal to metal contact
problem before resuming operation.
2. DO NOT PLACE YOUR HANDS OR
TOOLS NEAR THE OPEN INLET during
operation for any reason including, but not
limited to, unclogging material and testing
suction. The impeller could cause serious
damage to body parts if touched while spin-
ning.
6. WHEN EMPTYING DUST FROM THE
COLLECTION BAGS, wear a respirator
and safety glasses. Empty dust into an
approved container and dispose of properly.
7. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC-
ING DIFFICULTIES PERFORMING THE
INTENDED OPERATION, stop using the
machine! Then contact our service depart-
ment or ask a qualified expert how the oper-
ation should be performed.
3. PROBLEMS CONCERNED WITH ANY
MOVING PARTS or accessories must be
investigated and corrected with the power
disconnected and after everything has
come to a complete stop.
4. SUSPENDED DUST PARTICLES IN CON-
JUNCTION WITH AN IGNITION SOURCE,
may cause an explosion. Do not operate the
dust collector in areas where explosion risks
would be high if dust were dispersed into
the area. Areas of high risk include, but are
not limited to, areas near pilot lights and/or
open flames.
8. 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 in case there is a possibility of an allergic
reaction. Always wear an approved respira-
tor!
No list of safety guidelines can be com-
plete. Every shop environment is different.
Always consider safety first, as it applies to
your individual working conditions. Use
this and other machinery with caution and
respect. Failure to follow guidelines could
result in serious personal injury, damage to
equipment or poor work results.
DO NOT use the dust collector for any other
purpose besides collecting dust from con-
nected woodworking machines. A dust col-
lector should NEVER be used as an air
cleaner. For safest use, wear a respirator
and use an air cleaner in addition to the
dust collector.

SECTION 3: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
Amperage Draw
Plug-Type
The Model G0548 features a single phase 220V
2 HP motor.
We recommend using a NEMA 6-15 plug (Figure
1). You may also “hard-wire” the dust collector
directly to your panel, provided you place a dis-
connect near the machine. Check the electrical
codes in your area for specifics on wiring require-
ments. The motor is wired according to the dia-
gram in Figure 1a.

Grounding
Circuit Capacity
Always check to see if the wires in your circuit are
capable of handling the amperage draw from
your machine, as well as any other machines that
could be operating on the same circuit. If you are
unsure, consult a qualified electrician.
Electrocution or a fire
can result if the machine
is not grounded correct-
ly. Make sure all electri-
cal circuits are ground-
ed. DO NOT use the
machine if it is not
grounded.
If the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows regu-
larly, your machine may be operating on a circuit
that is close to its amperage draw capacity.
However, if an unusual amperage draw does not
exist and a power failure still occurs, contact a
qualified electrician.
NOTICE
The wire on the power cord with green or
green and yellow striped insulation is the
grounding conductor.
Extension Cords
In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance to disperse electric cur-
rent. This tool is equipped with a power cord that
has an equipment-grounding prong. The outlet
must be properly installed and grounded in accor-
dance with all local codes and ordinances.
We do not recommend the use of extension cords
with 220V equipment. Instead, arrange the place-
ment of your equipment and the installed wiring to
eliminate the need for extension cords. Should
the situation be necessary to use an extension,
make sure the cord is rated Standard Service
(grade S) or better. The extension cord must also
contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair
or replace extension cords when they become
worn or damaged.

Clean Up
Site Considerations
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy
oil to protect them from corrosion during ship-
ment. Remove this protective coating with a sol-
vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as
Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly,
some parts may need to be removed. Avoid chlo-
rine-based solvents as they may damage painted
surfaces should they come in contact.
Floor Load
The Model G0548 weighs 145 lbs and has a base
footprint of 311⁄2" x 373⁄8". Most commercial floors
are suitable for the machine. Some residential
floors may require additional reinforcement to
support both the machine and operator.
Working Clearances
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of
material to be processed through each machine,
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or
other machinery when establishing a location for
the machine. See Figure 6 for the overall dimen-
sions of the Model G0548.
Gasoline and petroleum

SECTION 6: COLLECTION SYSTEM
Material Selection
General
You have many choices regarding main line and
branch line duct material. In most commercial
workshops, the main line and branch lines are
usually metal duct. Flexible hose is then used to
connect each machine to the branch lines. In the
case of small home shops, flexible hose may be
used for both main line and branch line ducts.
Plastic duct is also a popular material for home
shops. Please 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.
The Model G0548 can be operated as either a
stationary or a mobile unit. There are advantages
and disadvantages to both set-ups. The advan-
tage of the mobile system is eliminating the cost
of many ducts and fittings. On the other hand, the
stationary system is more versatile and conve-
nient.
The Model G0548 is designed to be a central
dust collector system. Locate the dust collector in
an out of the way location such as a corner or
separate room. The dust collector is capable of
collecting dust from up to two machines running
simultaneously. Because of the large suction
capacity of the Model G0548, great flexibility is
possible in the planning and designing of your
dust collection duct layout. Grizzly offers a com-
plete line of dust collection accessories for setting
up a stationary system. Additionally, Grizzly
offers a guide book entitled Dust Collection
Basics.
METAL DUCT
Metal duct comes in many varieties. Stove pipe,
heating/ventilation duct and duct made especial-
ly for dust collection are all options. Advantages
of metal duct is its conductivity and that 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 dis-
sipate any static electrical charges. However,
metal duct is generally more expensive than
plastic duct and it is not usually airtight unless
specifically manufactured for dust collection.
Specially manufactured metal duct, on the other
hand, is quite expensive. Metal duct is also gen-
erally more difficult to cut and assemble.
Whatever system you choose, always make sure
there are no open flames or pilot lights in the
same room as the dust collector. There is a risk
of explosion if dust is dispersed into the air.
FLEXIBLE HOSE
Flexible rubber hose, polyethylene, plastic flex-
hose and other flexible ribbed 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 poly-
ethylene, PVC, cloth hose dipped in rubber and
even metal, including steel and aluminum.

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 flexi-
bility 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.
System Grounding
Since plastic hose is abundant, relatively inex-
pensive, 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 stat-
ic 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.
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. Grizzly
offers polyethylene hose which is well suited for
the removal of particulate matter, especially saw-
dust, since it is durable and completely flexible.
Polyethylene is also very economical and avail-
able in a wide variety of diameters and lengths for
most applications.
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 elec-
tric service panel.
PLASTIC DUCT
The popularity of plastic duct 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 disadvan-
tage of plastic duct for dust collection, whether
black ABS or white PVC and even rubber or poly-
ethylene flex-hose, is the inherent danger of stat-
ic electrical build-up.
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 recom-
mend inserting a continuous bare copper ground
wire inside the entire duct system and attaching
the wire to each grounded woodworking machine
and dust collector.
Always guard against
static electrical build up
by grounding all dust
collection lines.

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” connec-
tion.
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.
Ensure that the entire system is grounded. If
using plastic blast gates to direct air flow, the
grounding wire must be jumped (Figure 22)
around the blast gate without interruption to the
grounding system.
Attach the bare ground wire to each stationary
woodworking machine and attach the dust collec-
tor frame with a ground screw as shown in Figure
23. Ensure that each machine is continuously
grounded to the grounding terminal in your elec-
tric service panel.

When designing a successful dust collection sys-
tem, planning is the most important step. Before
you set out to run the first section of duct, con-
sider these general guidelines for an efficient sys-
tem:
1. Your desired location of the dust collector,
usually in a corner or along a wall.
2. The location of each machine in the system.
3. The location of the main line duct and each

tor. These machines include thickness plan-
ers, shapers, sanders and bandsaws.
branch line.
4. The location of any obtrusion such as a joist
or heating duct, that will require special duct
routing.
2. Ideally, you should design the duct system to
have the shortest possible mainline run and
to have short secondary branch ducts.
3. Directional changes should be kept to a min-
imum. The more directional change fittings
you use, the greater the loss of overall pres-

SECTION 7: OPERATION
Once assembly is complete and adjustments are
done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test
run the machine.
Test Run
Turn on the power supply at the main panel.
Press the START button. Make sure that your fin-
ger is poised on the STOP button, just in case
there is a problem. The dust collector should run
smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing
noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be
investigated and corrected before operating the
machine further.
Disconnect power to the
machine when perform-
ing any maintenance,
assembly or adjust-
ments. Failure to do this
may result in serious
personal injury.
If you cannot easily locate the source of an
unusual noise or vibration, contact our service
department for help.
Keep loose clothing
rolled up and out of the
way of machinery and
keep hair pulled back.
General
Operating your Model G0548 is simple and
straightforward. Blast gates located at each of
the machines controls the air flow from the wood-
working machine to the dust collector. If a
machine is not being used, keep the blast gate
closed to maintain higher levels of efficiency
throughout the system.
Wear safety glasses dur-
ing the entire operations
process. Failure to com-
ply may result in serious
personal injury.
Always wear a respira-
tor when operating your
dust collector. This
machine circulates saw-
dust which may cause
allergic reactions or res-
piratory problems.
DO NOT use the dust collector for any
other purpose besides collecting dust
from connected woodworking machines.
A dust collector should NEVER be used as
an air cleaner. For safest use, wear a res-
pirator and use an air cleaner in addition to
the dust collector.

General
Always wear a respirator or dust mask and safe-
ty glasses when emptying the collection bags.
Small dust particles can escape the bags during
emptying, causing them to become airborne and
easily inhaled. This microscopic airborne dust is
extremely unhealthy to breathe and can cause
serious health problems.
Regular periodic maintenance on your Model
G0548 Dust Collector will ensure its optimum per-
formance. Make a habit of inspecting your
machine each time you use it. Check for the fol-
lowing conditions and repair or replace when nec-
essary:
Grizzly offers replacement collection bags and
canister filters for your Model G0548 Dust
Collector.
1. Loose mounting bolts.
2. Worn switch.

3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs.
4. Any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this machine.
5. Do not let collection bags get completely full.

To clean the canister filters:
While the Model G0548 excels at collecting the
majority of wood dust produced by your
machines, it is not an air filter; therefore, we
strongly recommend the supplemental aid of a
shop air filter such as the Grizzly G5955 or
G9956. Air filters are designed to collect the
smaller dust particles that dust collector bags
cannot trap.
1. Move the canister handle back and forth to
free trapped dust particles from the filter
(Figure 25). The particles will fall into the col-
lection bag.
Figure 25. Move canister handle back and forth.
To empty the collection bag:
1. Make sure you are wearing a repirator and
the dust collector is unplugged.
2. When the collection bag is full, unclamp the
collection bag and dispose of the dust.
3. Install a new collection bag.
