W1737/W1738 Owner's Manual (Mfg. 10/09+)

Dust Collection

The Model W1737/W1738 features dust ports and

adapters located on top of the machine as shown in

Figures 14 and 15. Before performing any sanding

operations, attach the dust ports to a 2HP or better dust

collector, which can draw at least 1,500 CFM, or dust

buildup will hinder the performance of your sander.

Even with a sufficient dust collection system, a fine

layer of dust may still be present on your stock as it

comes out of the sander. This residual dust is a normal

condition.

Breather Pin

The Model W1737/W1738 has a breather sealing pin

installed in the breather plug for the gear reducer.

Remove this pin before using your sander (see

Figure

13); otherwise, the gear oil will expand with heat

and the seals in the gear reducer may leak due to the

pressure build up.

You may want to retain this pin if you plan on storing

your sander for a long period of time.

REMEMBER, this machine produces

fine sawdust particles that can be

inhaled, causing allergic reactions

or respiratory problems. ALWAYS

wear your respirator in addition to

using an adequate dust collection

system that draws at least 1500

CFM.
