Why is my Shop Fox Dust Collector not collecting dust properly?
- KklinedebbieAug 8, 2025
If your Shop Fox Dust Collector isn't collecting dust effectively, start by emptying the collection bag. Check for any blockages in the duct line, possibly using a plumbing snake to clear them. Ensure the dust collector is close enough to the source and that the ducting doesn't have sharp bends. Confirm that the lumber being processed has less than 20% moisture content. Seal any leaks in the ducting and close unused ports. If the main line velocity is low, open additional branch lines. Verify that ducts and ports are correctly sized. If the machine's dust collection design is inadequate, consider using a dust collection nozzle on a stand. If the dust collector is too small, think about installing a larger one.
