  • Great machine. A bit lacking in quality control.
Style: 1.5 HP, 1,280 CFM Pattern Name: Dust Collector
I got my Shop Fox today. I started assembly. THe first thing I noticed was I was short on bolts per the manual. The manual called for 14 M8 bolts and it only came with 6. These are for bolting down the motor mount and impeller housing. Don't panic, the base plate has threaded holes in it so they must have changed the design but not updated the manual yet. The motor mount holes in the base plate lined up nicely by the impeller housing holes were 1 3/8" too close to the motor mount holes. One othe impeller mounts lined up with a caster bolt so I replaced that with a 1/4" x 1" bolt, 2 flat washers, a lock washer and nut. I had to drill a hole for the other impleller housing foot. I used another 1/4 x 1" bolt and washers to secure it. There are zero lock washers with this unti, just flat washers. Check the unit perodically to ensure all bolts are tight. If they tend to come lose add a lock washer. A hex wrench and 2 cast open ended wrenches (8 & 10MM and 111 & 13MM) came with the unit. A nice touch but you don't use the hex wrench and at some point you will need a second 10 and 13MM wrench to tighten the bolts. ou will also need a phillips screwdriver. Assembly was a breeze once I got past the missing impeller housing holes. The unit runs fairly quiet and it's certainly easier on the erars than my shop vac. Suction is good. The colloector was able to pull planer shavings from my open hand at 4" from the duct. I will rate the collection performance after I've had a bit more time to use the machine with all my tools. Based on advice from reviews on the Woodstock W1049 large dust collector seperator I will install one as a precollector to the Shop Fox. As one reviewer mentioned it reduces the pucker factor should a large chunk of wood get sucked into the dust collection. I have no desire to be replacing my impeller or housing any time soon. :) Reviewers note that the precollector catches most of the shavings and reduces the frequency of emptying the Shop Fox bag. The unit is on casters for ease of movement but be wary of where you grab the unit to move it. I pulled on the bag support arm and it began to bend. It seems like the seperator unit is the best place to push or maybe push the base with your foot. It would be nice to have a definate solid handle to grab for mobility. Overall I rate this a 5 star fine machine. ... show more

  • Excellent
Style: 1.5 HP, 1,280 CFM Pattern Name: Dust Collector
Works very well in my shop, it's quieter than I was expecting, much quieter than my shop vac. I had it hooked up to my planer with a flex hose and it took 95% of the chips, I'm very impressed.

  • Great suction. Very loud. Packaging destroyed but all parts OK.
Style: 2 HP, 1,550 CFM Pattern Name: Dust Collector
I would give it a five, but no instructions in the box just like many others have commented on. The card board box was destroyed as many others have commented. All Styrofoam inside the box was destroyed. I was worried about the contents when looking at the box, but all parts inside were OK. Very noisy in operation, but suction power is tremendous. Seems to be well made. Easy to put together, but need 2 folks or duct tape for the plastic bottom bag. All needed fasteners in the box. No bolts twisted off. Did not have to tap any threads. No burrs or sharp ends on any metal parts. Runs smoothly. Rolls around very easily. Cyclone and bags have some wobble due to the 3 rod supports and a little flex in the base. I hope it last 20 years like my old Penn State Industries which was still running very well when I sold it. I chose this Shop Fox dust collector over the Grizzly 2 hp Polar Bear series for two reasons - it has a steel impeller vs the aluminum on the Grizzly AND the W1665 and W1666 were mentioned in many, many dust collector reviews. I hope it was a good choice in the end. I will let you know in 20 years. ... show more

  • Great Dust Collector
Style: 2 HP, 1,550 CFM Pattern Name: Dust Collector
This is a great dust collector and as another reviewer stated: "It really sucks"! Don't get a hand too close to the unconnected 4" inlet or an attached 4" hose as you can feel it pulling you in. I replaced a 750 CFM dust collector that really didn't quite do it for my table saw and drum sander. Not in the picture that I attached a Y with 4" and 2.5" blast gates. The 4" hose has a quick connect for the table saw, lathe, router table and drum sander. I use the 2.5" as a vacuum and also on the router table. The price is right as it was about the same as the 750 CFM I replaced with nearly twice the volume. Some of the reviewers complained at how theirs arrived. My outside box was dinged up a little and the foam on the inside broken a little but there were no dents, scratches or bends in the parts inside. Easy assembly and all you need is a 240v plug that fits you socket. ... show more

  • Good Product, Bad Description
Style: 1.5 HP, 1,280 CFM Pattern Name: Dust Collector
I'd like to say that overall I really like this product and it works great. The reason I am giving it 3 stars is due to the inaccuracies of the description and the state that I received the product in: 1. This is definitely NOT pulling 16 amps. I have it plugged into a remote switch that is only rated at 13 amps and the whole unit is on a 15 amp circuit breaker with other tools (such as my Bosch miter saw) plugged in and running without a problem. 2. The inlet of the dust collector fan is indeed 6" but the outlet is only 5". Typically on equipment like this the outlet is always larger than the inlet which explains why they branch the inlet down to 4" (so you only connect with 4" hose). 3. I posted some pictures for how it looked when it arrived. The box was so banged up that most of the Styrofoam packaging was broken into pieces and many of the parts such as the motor mount were incredibly bent. It took some serious work to straighten them out so I could mount them to the base. 4. Both the filter bag and collector bag were in good shape and are both heavy enough for heavy use. 5. I have the unit pulling through 4" ABS piping and has more than enough suction when running one tool at a time, even at the end of a 30ft. run of overhead pipe. Luckily for me I purchased this for use with a Dust Deputy XL and am venting the fan outlet to the outside via a roof vent so I am not using the stand or the bags and the fact that most of the product was damaged didn't matter that much to me but it was frustrating all the same. And while I'm sure the shipper caused most of the damage and the late delivery, they should improve the packaging to provide more protection. ... show more
