    Shop Fox 1826 suction

    I put a Shop Fox 1826 in my small shop. I have it connected to my 8” jointer, band saw and table saw with 4” hose and gates at each, also have a 2 1/2” for the vac hose. Worked fine for the to saws but when I attempted to flat joint a 2 x 4 sized board on the jointer it clogged almost immediately. After curse laden few minutes I pulled off the intake side and saw the a bunch of shavings were backed up in front of the wide spaced “grill” they have on the intake side of the machine. I went ahead and cut the damn thing out, hooked everything back up and now the thing sucks great. Anybody else have a similar experience?
