Hi all, I met a nice old man yesterday who is having trouble with the dust colection on his Powermatic 66 TS. I’m going over to try to help him out today. Thought I’ld get some suggestions from others with experience.
Although I really haven’t looked at it yet he said there is an opening on the left side of the cabinet and there’s just too much airflow lost through there and through the opening where the blade pivots. Anybody have any experience with this?
The dust collector is working and does ok on the other tools.
thanks for any input.
Hugh

Sounds like it is an older model that doesn't have a "motor cover". Should be able to get one from Posermatic dealer-it's a plastic tub that bolts on to cover opening. Or you can make a plywood box to serve the same purpose.
