Why? Are you knot supposed to do that? The next thing I will be told is not to aim an "empty" gun at someone and pull the trigger. What is the world coming to?

Seriously, wood knot it be nice if everyone could think for him/her self and knot go sue happy when something goes wrong? Personal responsibility is the name of the game. Part of the high cost of consumer products is to cover the cost of litigation and monetary settlements. A boon for the "victim" and attorneys, but the company does knot pay for it, the consumer does, in higher prices for the products sold.

I haven't seen anyone ask this question yet.

Have you used the dust collector on any other tools and end up with the same problem (chips and dust everywhere)?

Maybe the the dust hose has a blockage in it slowing down the airflow.

Here's another user with the same results.

Now my dust collector works great on the belt sander, bandsaw, biscuit joiner, and on the floor. Not so good on the table saw, but thats because I still have the old guard. OTHERS things I want, before spending on that.
