4.3 Power Connection

1. Ensure the dust collector's power switch is in the "OFF" position.
2. Connect the power cord to the power inlet on the unit.
3. Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet that matches the specified voltage (220V or 110V).

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Powering On/Off

To power on the unit, flip the main power switch to the "ON" position. To power off, flip the switch to "OFF".

5.2 Adjusting Suction Power

The JT-26B features voltage stepless regulation. Use the control knob on the external control box to adjust the suction power as needed for your application. Turn the knob clockwise to increase suction and counter-clockwise to decrease it.

5.3 Carbon Brush Monitoring System

This dust collector is equipped with an automatic time system for carbon brush abradability and a prewarning system. When the carbon brush wear approaches a critical point, the system will automatically trigger an alarm and cut off the power supply. This feature protects the motor from damage and extends its operational lifespan. When the alarm sounds, it indicates that the carbon brushes require inspection and potential replacement.

5.4 Dual Workstation Use

The "Y" type suction inlet allows two users to work simultaneously, connecting two separate dust-generating devices to the single dust collector.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your dust collector. Always disconnect the power before performing any maintenance.

6.1 Dust Bag Replacement

1. Open the front door of the dust collector.
2. Carefully remove the full dust bag.
3. Install a new dust bag, ensuring it is properly seated and sealed within the compartment.
4. Close the front door securely.
