this is soo helpful! I am new to this and am surprised how little help there is out there just to explain the proper way to install the grinder cup wheel. The manual that came with my Bauer grinder was no help when it comes to surface grinding wheels. Thanks for this!
The ultimate RPM for grinding concrete depends on several factors such as the type of grinder, the hardness of the concrete, and the size of the grinder discs. Typically, for large grinders with diamond grinding discs used for heavy-duty concrete grinding, the optimal RPM can range from 250 to 1500 RPM. It's crucial to adjust the RPM based on the specific grinder model and the concrete's hardness to achieve the best results without damaging the surface.
Sure, This vacuum is much bigger than a Dyson vacuum, but will work fine in large areas. The filtration is awesome especially when used with the Wunder bag. The wheels on the D1606 and D1604 are gray non-marking so they will not scratch your floor
@@Dustless I have seen Dustless units on AZ from Third Party sellers. I am assuming they aren’t approved sellers at this point. Do you have a store on AZ? Lastly, would you recommend the DUSTLESS unit that can be worn on your back as a better fit for the home? It seems smaller. Thanks for the fast replies.
@@TheMisfitsofComedy we have several in Arizona. If you'd like to go to our website, www.dustlesstools.com, and click "where to buy" you can type in your zip code to find a store nearest to you.
Can I use this as a replacement for my Dyson vacuum? We have a lot of dust in our home. We have dark hardwood floors though out. I have always noticed that no matter what even after vacuuming we have a lot of dust the next day. Will the wheels on the larger vacuum damage or scratch hardwood floors?
Sure… it is much bigger than a Dyson but the filtration is awesome. Especially when using the Wunder bags. The wheels on the D1606 and D1604 are gray non marking rubber wheels.
@@Dustless A little confused. I received my Dustless Vacuum today 7/3/24 a few minutes ago. I never received an email/receipt when I made the purchase. I checked my spam file too with no invoice. My packing slip says I bought the D1619. The unit I received says D1618 on the box and on the actual vacuum.
Must be used with steel drum!! I didnt see that anywhere and tried with plastic drums saftey spill kits drums yeah no good sucked it right in!! Hours getting more steel drums but great suction for sure
Is it normal that there’s is some air coming of the port selector button? not the blower but the actual button? And also the seam between the top part with the filter and the bottom part ( the bucket) it’s not closed all the way, theres some space like it’s not sealed.
You don't necessarily need a minimum amperage to grind concrete. That being said, higher amperage usually correlates with higher grinding speed. Somewhere between 8-13 amps should work for most applications.
@@Dustless I plan to rent a floor grinder for majority of the garage floor but want to but a handheld one for corners etc.. 8-13 more than sufficient in this case?
@@ayushg2271 most handheld grinders have removable shields to get closer to walls and corners. Is that what you are asking? If not, can you elaborate a little more on your needs?
The vacuum end of the hose has a 2-1/2" outer diameter and 2-7/16" inner diameter. The working end of the hose has a 1-10/16" outer diameter and a 1-9/16" inner diameter.
There are a few advantages to dry grinding. 1) Dry grinding does not obscure the surface that you're working on, making the surface easier to see and evaluate. 2) Wet grinding could cause harm to your equipment, specifically rust. 3) Last, but potentially most important is the fact that dry grinding (with a dust collection shroud) allows for immediate capture of removed contents. Dust can be captured at the point of origin, rather than swept up later, or vacuumed up separately after you've created slurry.
Sorry that you're having difficulty, but we're glad you've reached out! If the grinding disk is standing that far away from the dust shroud after installation, we'd suspect that you're using an arbor extender and/or spacers. If that's the case, we recommend removing spacers until you've reached the recommended 1/8" gap between the brushes and the disk. If that is not the case, then we'd need to explore more detail on the particulars of your installation.

Which vacuum is best for lead dust created by lead-based pigments? I’m getting into vitreous paints - where you paint on glass and then fire the glass to permanently fuse the paint - the process involves brushing dried powder away from the painted glass. My gut instinct is the 1606 with triple filtration. But will I need to worry about lead contamination when I change the pre filter?
You're gut is correct. The D1606 HEPA Wet+Dry DustlessVac is our most robust option for its 3 layers, most important of which is an individually certified HEPA filter. As far as contamination goes, we recommend treating the pre-filter as a lead-hazardous material when replacing it. Wear gloves and a properly fitted respirator certified for lead dust (N95 respirator with a P100 filter). It's also wise to consider proper disposal. The EPA doesn't provide specific disposal instructions for every situation, so check with your local hazardous waste disposal regulations for proper disposal of the pre-filter. Search online for "[your city/county] hazardous waste disposal" or contact your local sanitation department. More on lead here: www.epa.gov/lead EDIT: Corrected grammar
@@zoximrai2207 if the vacuums were so good you wouldn’t be looking to do this… literally there are vacuums that create too much suction (triple motor ruwak) and makes your grinding tools dog down. And to top that off you do not want all of the dust to be extracted your blades use the dust to open the diamond and to cool the bits. (Go talk to the diamond blade manufacturer like I did) so yet again if these had adequate suction you wouldn’t be looking in increasing the suction. Because too much is also undesirable.
@@zoximrai2207 clearly you are not in this industry, too much vacuum is undesirable for grinding concrete. The tooling requires the dust to keep fresh diamonds exposed and to keep the from over heating. Also to much suction labors the machine and employee. These vacs are not it man.
@@zoximrai2207also with the amount of space these take up there’s much better performing vacs on the market that take up less space. And don’t require two outlets which if you’re in the industry you know finding outlets on job sites can be difficult. As every other trade also wants the same outlets 😂 small time diy jobs like garage floors sure this will work for that.
The issue is that duct tape can't guarantee a reliable seal. Uneven application or application to unclean surfaces increases the chance of gaps, allowing dust to escape into the air and settle on unwanted surfaces, including your lungs! Duct tape also becomes increasingly wasteful with each use. Additionally, it's easily worn down. Over time, you'll likely save money by investing in the right adapter instead of using up rolls of tape. We see people using duct tape in product reviews and videos, and we understand the appeal. However, we simply want to raise awareness about the existence of better solutions, like adapters, that offer a more secure and lasting fix.
I wonder though, the company may be earning money from this video as well. I mean, the same could be said for most of the small engine channels I watch but they seem busy enough while making these videos.
The first test he said was pressure but that appears to be false, it should be vacuum! For the 2nd test, he said it had about 88 lbs. of pressure! What?. Still was interesting. Would like to see a test with 2 1/2 inch hose and with different vacuums with a higher CFM.
Correct, we need a new demo slab! Shallow passes, steady hand, light pressure - key to smooth concrete! Choose quality diamond discs and fix cracks beforehand for even results.
Great video. Have you seen a vacuum that is actually practical for a person that uses his wood stove to actually heat his house? What I have seen about these (all "ash" vacuums): 1. I want to suck everything out of my Stove, hot or not. Make everything out of metal. I shovel glowing embers in my covered metal bucket. 2. The hose is never big enough and gets clogged, despite all you said about the hose and "breaking" up the chunks, just isn't a great design. You have to be kidding about what that little accessory tube/hose is used for! lol 3. Filters, what a pain to clean on this. I can only imagine how often those things clog, again, a metal mesh on the outside of the filter would be well worth it for embers. I have seen one vacuum that had something like that. Sorry to be critical, but I just haven't found one of these that work. Someone could make some money if they made an all metal one with a simple filtration system. Again, thanks for the review, it allowed me to see this vacuum in detail and decide not to even try it.
We're glad you found the video useful! Thank you for the feedback concerning hot ash handling, hose size, and filter cleaning. While our current models have features such as filter cleaning without opening the canister and reinforced hoses, we appreciate your suggestions for all-metal designs and alternative filters.

It depends on how much moisture you add. If you add a small amount of water to the surface before you start, it shouldn't create a ton of slurry. If you are continuously adding water, you'll definitely get slurry. With a dust containment shroud such as the DustBuddie for Hand Grinders with a vacuum of 125 CFM+, moisture is not necessary to contain dust. Let us know if you have any other questions.
Yes! The vacuum bag acts as a pre-filter and protects your main filter. The vacuum bag is also replaceable. Let us know if you have any other questions!
You should also mention, with longer hose. It will take longer to reach the max lift. Higher cfm with get you to max lift faster. Also, another test would be testing the cfm and lift with liquids running through. Also, if you have foamy detergent, that will drop your cfm down to nothing. I have a 500cfm machine, and i noticed a huge vacuum lost with foam. It's probably because it's lighter than water and harder to extract.
That's interesting 🤔 We haven't tried foam before. It makes sense that varying density of liquids would have varying effects on performance. We might have to make a Part III 😅 Love the carpet cleaning videos, btw. Very satisfying🙌
You can choose to vacuum afterward, but airborne dust travels several feet at a time, making the area that you have to clean up large. It also settles in places that may be difficult to or impossible to vacuum up, including your lungs!😷
@@Dustless yes, after I try myself the dust is very disturbing, make you difficult to breath. I use mask since I don't have that vacuum gadget and than only I can finish my job 😊
No funciona ese accserio, por que no se puede colocar en su posición correcta, de acuerdo al. Giro del. Disco, si lo ocupas como en el video hay mucho riesgo o peligro de salir volando el disco.
Agradecemos su preocupación. Sin embargo, el extensor del eje y los espaciadores que se proporcionan para ayudar a centrar la hoja están roscados en la misma dirección que la mayoría de los ejes de amoladora angular (para diestros). Cuando la hoja gira, aplicará fuerza en la dirección opuesta, apretando la hoja, no aflojándola. Te recomendamos leer el manual de tu amoladora manual si tienes dudas sobre cómo instalar una cuchilla de corte. ¡Háganos saber si hay algo más que podamos hacer para ayudar!
Is there "blow back" with this vacuum? Or is this vacuum designed for sweeping up toxins in dust, like lead dust. I'm confused about the feature to convert this into a blower.
When it comes to vacuums, "blowback" is the term most people use to describe the fact that as the vacuum turns on, a small amount of dust is blown into the air from the exhaust. Because our vacuums use multiple layers of filtration, there is little to no blowback effect because dust never reaches the exhaust. This vacuum is designed for many things, but because it is HEPA it can be used for cleaning up toxins such as lead chips and dust. However, learning how/when to vacuum up toxins and how to dispose of them properly can vary from project to project and state to state. We recommend consulting the EPA's website or a local professional for more details: www.epa.gov/lead/lead-renovation-repair-and-painting-program The blowing feature can be helpful in loosening debris before applying suction, drying wet areas, filling inflatable objects, and more. It does this by shifting its exhaust from it's side ports to the center port, which can be attached to a hose. Hopefully that helps! Let us know if you have any other questions.
