The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This
manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of
importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember
that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper
accident prevention measures.
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
WILL result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
COULD result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to
alert against unsafe practices.
This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about
proper operation of the machine.

Additional Safety for Dust Collectors
1. MACHINE USE. DO NOT use this dust
collector to pick up liquids and metal scrap
including, but not limited to, nails and fil-
ings. Also, DO NOT pick up material which
cannot safely pass through the impeller,
such as solid wood scraps.
6. AVOIDING FIRES. 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 col-
lector, unplug the power cord from the out-
let, 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. KEEPING FINGERS SAFE. DO NOT place
your hands or tools near the open inlet dur-
ing operation for any reason including, but
not limited to, unclogging material and test-
ing suction. The impeller could cause seri-
ous damage to body parts if touched while
spinning.
7. OPERATIONAL QUESTIONS. If at any
time you are experiencing difficulties per-
forming the intended operation, stop using
the machine! Then contact our Service
Department or ask a qualified expert how
the operation should be performed.
3. SAFE SERVICING. Disconnect power and
allow impeller to come to a complete stop
before servicing or working on the dust col-
lector ducting system.
4. SUSPENDED DUST PARTICLES AND
IGNITION SOURCES. 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. DUST HAZARD. 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
respirator!
5. EMPTYING BAGS. When emptying dust
from the collection bags, wear a respirator
and safety glasses. Empty dust into an
approved container and dispose of
properly.
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
connected woodworking machines. A dust
collector 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.

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.
Collection System
General
The Model G8027 is designed to be a single-
machine dust collector. Locate the dust collec-
tor where it will not interfere with the workpiece
being processed, and no more than 10' of ducting
is used, otherwise the CFM will be reduced. To
solve dust collection questions, Grizzly offers a
guide book entitled Dust Collection Basics that
will help you design your system.
Duct Grounding
Plastic flex-hose is an insulator, and dust particles
moving against the walls of the hose creates 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 near-
est grounded source. This electrical discharge
may cause an explosion and subsequent fire
inside the system.
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.
Material Selection
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.
You have many choices regarding dust collection
ducting, but flexible hose is the most common.
However, be aware that there is a fire or explo-
sion hazard if plastic duct material is used for
dust collection without being grounded against
static electrical charge build-up.
Plastic Flexible Duct
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 differ-
ent 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.
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.
There are also many kinds of pure plastic flex-
ible 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.
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

Ensure that the entire system is grounded. If
using plastic blast gates to direct air flow, the
grounding wire must be jumped (Figure 15)
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 col-
lector frame with a ground screw as shown in
Figure 16. Ensure that each machine is continu-
ously grounded to the grounding terminal in your
electric service panel.

SECTION 4: OPERATION
Test Run
Operation Safety
Once assembly is complete and adjustments are
done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test
run the machine.
Disconnect power to the
machine when perform-
ing any maintenance,
assembly or adjust-
ments. Failure to do this
may result in serious
personal injury.
Turn on the power supply at the main panel.
Turn the dust collector ON. Make sure that your
finger is poised on the toggle switch 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.
!
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
Wear safety glasses dur-
ing the entire operations
process. Failure to com-
ply may result in serious
personal injury.
Operating your Model G8027 is simple and
straightforward. Move the dust collector to the
machine location, connect the duct, connect the
ducting ground, and you are ready to begin.
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 respirator
and use an air cleaner in addition to the
dust collector.
Always wear a respi-
rator when operating
your dust collector. This
machine circulates saw-
dust dust which may
cause allergic reactions
or respiratory problems.

necessary:
1. Loose mounting bolts.

To empty the collection bag:
Bag Cleaning
1. Make sure you are wearing a respirator and
the dust collector is unplugged.
Always wear a respirator or dust mask and safety
glasses when emptying the storage bag (Figure
25). Small dust particles can escape the bags
during emptying, causing them to become air-
borne and easily inhaled. This microscopic air-
borne dust is extremely unhealthy to breathe and
can cause serious health problems.
2. Un-clamp the collection bag and empty it.
3. Reinstall the collection bag.
While the Model G8027 excels at collecting the
majority of wood dust produced by your machines,
it is not an air filter; therefore, we strongly rec-
ommend 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 a dust collector cannot trap.
Grizzly offers replacement collection bags
(G5051 and G5559) for your Model G8027 Dust
Collector.
