The impeller is 400mm diameter and 100mm high. Sorry didn't count the blades. Think it is 8. Will check and update if not. They are arranged radially. The motor is marked 7.5HP and 2860rpm.

Well I got it here. Three blokes and a forklift put it in my trailer (it only just fit). Just me to unload! It's going to have to go into storage in the garage until I have time to build it a shed and install ducting. I have a sash window and dormer to make and fit in the next couple of weeks...

Hi, those are the kind of figures I was getting too. Just need to make sure the flow doesn't drop too low to cause a build up. I have seen the figure 4000fpm as a minimum. BTW this is a 3 phase 440v motor. Shouldn't have any problems starting. I also have an inverter to dive it if need be...

I have been looking at dust spares after the seller recommended them. Will give them a call Monday. However -and probably like most on here - I like to understand what and why I am doing things. Hopefully 200mm is too large, smaller would be better. I think the intake of the machine is 250mm...

I also have a Hammer combination, Saw/spindle. Not that there is much wrong but wouldn't recommend and would definitely get separate machines now. You need to be very organized before setting up the spindle and make sure you have finished. Nothing worse than taking it all down and then finding...

Hi, I don't normally post much but am a prolific lurker. Thought it was about time I joined in. Interested in al things shed related. Woodwork is the main activity but ambitions for a dedicated metal shop one day. Reasonable well kitted out for woodwork but plenty to add. Will have a go at...

Have you seen this? . Similar but without the external vent.

Hi I have a 440r. You still considering it? Dan
