FAQ
Filter shaker questions
Why use a filter shaker?
Shaking the filter loosens the fine dust that builds up in your HEPA filter. Running the shaker periodically keeps the filter as clean as possible and your dust collector at peak performance.
Which shaker fits my dust collector?
The Oneida 18" version fits Dust Gorilla Pro, Hi-Vac and Direct-Drive units. The Universal version fits any filter with a metal cage around it.
Does it work with dust collectors other than Oneida?
Yes. The Universal version straps around any filter that has a metal cage, whatever the brand. The 18" version is made for Oneida Dust Gorilla Pro, Hi-Vac and Direct-Drive units.
How do I clean my dust collector filter with it?
Mounted between the filter and the silencer, you remove the dust bin, put a bag under the filter to catch the dust, and run the shaker. The vibration knocks the fine dust loose without taking the filter off.
Has the Filter Shaker been reviewed?
Yes. Popular Woodworking reviewed it, and the reviewer wrote that the airflow through his system “probably doubled” after cleaning his filter with it.
What is the difference between the kit and the assembled unit?
The kit includes the bracket, shaker, outlet plug and hardware, and you wire the plug and mount the shaker. The assembled unit comes fully put together.
