FAQ (Continued)
Do you have a ductwork kit that includes everything I need to get started?
Yes, we have a Mini-Gorilla Quick-Start Ductwork Kit (KDZ010100) that includes:
a. DHF051000: Ten feet of 5" ex hose
b. ACB060000: Two 3-6" clamps
c. DZX990504: One 5-4" reducer crimped on the 5" end.
Can I connect Flex Hose directly to the inlet?
Yes, it will be a secure and rm t. However, you can secure it further by using a Quick-Release Hose Clamp
(ACB060000). Each clamp features a quick-release lock to simplify hose hookups with your tools. Simply li up
the locking hex-screw and the clamp will easily slip right o.
I'm having trouble attaching ex hose to the inlet, do you have any tricks?
Start with the cut end of the hose and pull the hose ends up little by little to work the hose onto the cyclone’s
discharge. Pliers can be used to grab the reinforcing wire and aid in pulling the hose over the opening. Using
heat (such as a hair dryer) can be gently applied to the molded inlet to make the resin more malleable and allow
for easier hose ttings - exercise caution when heat-treating so as not to damage the system.
What's the furthest length and diameter of hose that I can run?
You can run up to twenty-ve feet of ve inch ex hose.
How can I connect 4" Flex Hose directly to the inlet?
e Mini Gorilla is equipped with an Inlet Adapter Kit for 4" Hose (D). Aer installing this adapter it becomes
very simple to attach and remove 4" diameter ex hose from the inlet.
Why do I need a special outlet?
20A plugs are designed to be “mistake proof ” so that they aren’t connected to a circuit that is only rated for 15A.
Why doesn’t this system use 15A or less?
While this would be possible with a 1.5hp motor, this would result in a substantially weaker dust collection
system for the owner.
Can I use an outlet adapter?
No, this is not recommended. Your dust collector should run on a dedicated circuit that is adequately sized for its
amperage and voltage requirements.
