Hi Everyone,
Typically, I run 4 inch hose to my dust collector, but for some tools like my smaller 12" bandsaw and my miter saw, I run 2 1/2" hose with a 2.5" -> 4" adapter at the dust collector. Whenever I use the 2 1/2" setup, when the dust collector is up to speed, it starts to generate a piercing whistling sound (I imagine that this is a whorling vortex created inside the clear flexible collection hose). Has anyone had this experience, and more importantly, and suggestions as to how to stop it (besides not using 2 1/2" hose?).
Thanks!
