Is it just me or was Grizzly on drugs when they placed the cabinet DC port on the LEFT side of the cabinet for this saw? This would effectively introduce TWO right angles, back to back in the dust collection plumbing. Or am I missing something obvious?
Temporarily, I am running flex hose along the floor directly to a 3HP cyclone but even with a short strait path to the DC, collection is poor and I'm already tired of stepping over the hose as I walk around the saw. I plan to add a shark guard at the blade but I'm wondering if I shouldn't open up a 6" port at the back of the saw to make for fewer angles to my planned overhead DC plumbing. I'd run a wye off 6" main pipe on the ceiling. Blade collection would be 4", cabinet would be 6". Or should I just stick with 4" all the way around....? hmmm
