Clear Cut Dust Shoe Installation



Assembly

  1. Attach the front and rear gaskets to the Clear Cut ATC bracket:

    • Align holes between the front gasket and bracket
    • Both gaskets should sit flush to the bottom of the bracket

  2. Insert four (4) M5 – 16mm socket head screws, one in each corner. Then fasten the upper dust shoe and lower dust shoe to the bracket using an Allen key.


  3. Slide the dust shoe assembly on, from the bottom of the spindle.


Height Adjustment


  1. Insert one (1) M6 – 14 mm screw into each slider bushing, for a total of two (2) screws.

  2. Place slider bushings on the left and right sides of the bracket.

    • Secure into the bottom threaded holes on the spindle.
  3. Place a washer on each handle, then thread the handle into the top hole of each slider.


  4. Adjust dust shoe height to your desired position, then tighten the handle to lock it in place.

Hose Installation


  1. Check that the VFD is turned off.

  2. Assemble the hose bracket onto the top of the spindle using three (3) M4 – 4mm button head screws.

    • ⚠️ Do not drop screws into the spindle.
    • You may want to put a piece of paper to cover the spindle holes while assembling the fasteners. Remove the paper when you are done!

  3. Slide a hose clamp onto the hose.

  4. Attach the hose to the dust shoe inlet and tighten the clamp.


  5. Zip-tie the hose to the hose bracket for strain relief.
