Installed in 1 minute and works great. I wish the price was a little cheaper.
With a small modification it will work on the 12 1/2 inch planer. Would like to see one designed for the 12 1/2 planer but this one works satisfactory
It does the job well. A couple of years later there still was no dust collection accessory available so I quit looking. when I bought my Delta 22-540 planer several years ago, there was no way of catching the piles of chips and dust as they were made. It seals where it needs to, a large funnel shape helps chips flow to dust collection port, and installation took all of two seconds. I happened to do a web search a few weeks back just on a whim and there it was. I couldn't be happier with this product. Spin off the wing nuts, lift off old chip deflector, slip on the dust collector, spin on the two wing nuts. Done.
Yes, I could not believe it, but this darn thing picks up about 90% of the sawdust from my Delta planer. I had to use some duct tape to attack the connector to my 2" vacuum hose, but even that works great. The Delta people need to include this when purchasing their planers.
Compact.Cons: 1. Pros: 1. Difficult installation--screw location poor, thanks to Delta. Great concept. 2. Dust port centered above planer outfeed. .tough for any dust collection system other than overhead.
