Shop Fox W1868 - 2 HP Portable Cyclone Dust Collector
W1868 Shop Fox 2 HP Portable Cyclone Dust Collector The W1868 Cyclone Dust Collector offers a 2-stage cyclone system's efficiency while maintaining the portability of a single-stage dust collector. With a notable 1023 CFM and up to 10.9" of static pressure, it generates a vortex of incoming air to extract large wood chips and dust particles into a 20-gallon steel drum lined with a plastic bag. Remaining fine dust passes beyond the 13" aluminum impeller, captured by a canister filter, and then deposited into a separate plastic collection bag. The pleated spun-bond polyester filter captures 99.9% of particles up to 1 micron in size, maximizing surface area for efficient airflow. Rotating the filter cleaning handle activates paddle brushes, removing accumulated dust from the pleats to maintain high CFM. The collection drum's quick-release handle facilitates easy rolling for sawdust disposal. Noteworthy features include pleated filters with paddles, remotely controlled magnetic switches, lid lifting levers for drum emptying, and a compact design for shop mobility. Machines produced after 2021 feature a heavy-gauge clear plastic adapter, allowing connection to three 4" lines simultaneously, enhancing visibility and aiding in identifying potential clogs. As with all Shop Fox dust collectors, the W1868 is backed by a 2-year warranty covering parts and ensuring freedom from factory defects (consumables not included). Your machine comes with a comprehensive, easy to follow manual written by the Woodstock HQ documentation department right here in the USA.
