Well It may not be wrong, SawStop claims extreme efficiency with their
guard and the hose is at the rear. It all depends on the turbulence and
flow inside the guard.


SawStop also has the dust hose connected to a shroud that surrounds the blade, instead of to
a port that's basically just a 4"-diameter hole in the cabinet. I imagine that catches most of the
sawdust.



Actually it collects from a 4" port in the cabinet and the smaller one
at the back of the guard. The smaller one "T's" off from the 4" port at
the back of the saw.
