Default Jet shop filter ok to run without filters?

Probably a stupid question, but... Is there any reason that running it as
a
"fan" can hurt or make it less effective..

Looking ahead to summer and was going to put an exhaust fan in the shop...
Thinking of venting the Jet to the outside instead...

It's ceiling mounted and should pull the hot air off the (10') ceilings..
I can't think of how removing the filters could hurt it.. Just more air
flow,
right?
Would it be better to leave the outer filter on, to keep dust out of the
fan, or
would the dust just blow on through?

thanks,

The biggest problem that I see is that "you" would be breathing more dust.

Not sure why, Leon..
The air going into the filter wouldn't be recirculated into the shop, it would
go outside..
