It took me about five minutes to put this on my planer. It gets about 99% of the dust and I'm using a 6hp, 18.6 gallon shop vac.

A hint for you if you plan on using a shop vac with this. You will need a 4 - 2 1/4 reducer. This will fit your shop vac just fine, all you need is a 2 1/2 splice and I found this at my local home center with the shop vac accessories. The 4" part of this is another story. The end of the chute is 4" and the reducer end is 4", they don't fit together they just butt up against each other and I couldn't find any kind of 4" splice. The solution for this is to use a dust collector hose but they are expensive so I bought a dryer vent hose. Normally that hose would collapse but since I'm only using to keep both of these parts together there is nothing to collapse. It works great and will save you from having to buy 20' of dust collector hose to only use 3".

PS Don't forget to get two 4" clamps to hold everything together.

After getting the planer (model 22-560), I quickly realized the dust hood was needed. While the planer handles oak with no problem, the chips and dust were a problem.

I received the dust hood in 3 days and was off to a nearly chip and dust free planing.

Adding the dust hood will slow down blade changes, but the same tool supplied with the planer (used for blade installation) will also remove the hood.

Planers create a lot of sawdust/shavings. Get this and hook it up to a dust collector. Only the smallest amount of shavings coming out after that. It really helps keep the shop and your projects clean.
