    Why is my Clayton DUSTMASTER DM-104 Sander vacuum performance so low?
    • K
      Kelsey FordAug 7, 2025
      If your Clayton Sander vacuum performance is low, ensure that compressed air is being delivered at 90-100 PSI through a ¾” compressed air hose. Also, replace the filter bag and/or prefilter using the Safe- Filter-Change procedure. Check each hose for obstruction and remove any debris. If the vacuum motors are contaminated by dirty compressed air, contact Clayton for support.

      If your Clayton Sander air tools are operating too slowly, increase the supplied compressed air pressure or the size of the airline feeding the system. Inspect the external air filter. Also, increase the tool throttle with the adjustment knob on the tool.

      If your Clayton Sander air tools are operating too fast, reduce the compressed air supply by installing a properly sized regulator between the compressed air supply and the vacuum system. Reduce the tool throttle with the adjustment knob on the tool.

    Why is there excessive dust visible at the work surface using Clayton DUSTMASTER DM-104 Sander?
    • K
      kelly75Aug 22, 2025
      If excessive dust is visible at the work surface while using your Clayton Sander, replace the filter bag and/or prefilter using the Safe- Filter-Change procedure. If fine dust has coated the surface of the filter bag, open the filter compartment using the Safe-Filter-Change procedure. With a blunt tool, gently shake the filter bag to knock particles off the inner wall and check the minihelic reading. If a new DustMaster filter bag and prefilter are in place, the minihelic should read below 5; otherwise, the ULPA filter needs to be replaced.
