What a blessing - to plane & not have dust / chips flying everywhere. PROS:Having used several other planers, the DeWalt 735 is a real winner. But, adding a ratcheting strap clamp solves that problem. Thess planers are super & super easy to use (& change blades).CONS:The draw string doesn't grip sufficiently. I have 3 of these units. I placed the planers on a Rubbermaid carts & slid 30 gal trash cans below (bottom shelf).
I'm happy with the way it work's and on a scale of 1 to 10, I give it an 8 as there is some fine dust that come's through the cloth. The hood works well with a 30 gal trash can but a 55 gal drum would work better if your doing quite a bit of work. Putting a rope over a beam and raising the flex tube in a U shape help's also.
I use a 30 gal plastic garbage can. The only negative thing is that with the draw string attaching to the rim of the garbage can, there are some chips that will collect between the outside of the rim and the fabric hood.
When I want to remove the Chip Collector, I simply unplug the ground wire from the DW735 and release the locking collar ring from the planer discharge port.Good value product. When you take the hood off, these chips will fall directly on the floor at the base of the garbage can but they are all around the garbage can and makes clean up easier.As the ground wire connects directly to the DW735 planer making removing the hood a bit more complicated, I crimped a spade type connector onto the end of the wire.
Most useful accessory I have purchased for my shop in years. 95% of the chips are collected directly in the garbage when you operate the planer.
I would definitely recommend this accessory. If you do not have a vacuum system in your shop, the Chip Collection Accessory is a must have.The chip blower on the DeWalt DW735 planer is powerful enough to direct the chip through the 10 foot plastic hose and into whatever receptacle you secure the fabric hood over.
The draw string secures around the outside of the rim of the garbage can.
With this item, I simply hook it up to the machine, move a spare metal trash can close, and put the bag part over the can. I have tried using a shop vac with this planer, but it blows harder than the vac sucks. It still produces dust, but nothing like with the shop vac. This product is really good if you don't have a powered dust collector. I have my shop in the garage and have so many tools, that I usually have to move things onto the driveway to work.
Thanks for the attentive service Or perhaps I should say.Controls the Dust blows from the Dewalt Thickness Planner. If one makes sure the bag is tight it works well and you guys got it here quicker and more effeciently than ANYTHING else I've ordered from Delta/Porta Cable/Dewalt.
