Hello all
I have just acquired a used Coral dust extractor. It is 1600 m3/h, has a single bag and on wheels.
It has a three way input manifold with inbuilt blast gates, there is two flexible hoses into two if the inputs, on the end of one is a large scoop about 300mm across and 25mm wide. I assume for a lathe or bandsaw type of machine.
It is huge, standing near to 3m tall and that may be a problem as my small workshop has a low ceiling height.
Can I reduce the height by folding over the upper cloth bag? If I do will that cause me problems? If I just allow it to reach the ceiling and top out will that cause a problem?
Should I just sell it and get a smaller one with a single input and not so tall?
I cannot post pictures from work but will do soon.
Mick
