I have a Grizzly 1023S table saw with motor cover and OE blade insert. I
recently got the Grizzly 1029Z 2HP dust collector, the one with the .3
micron bag. I'm using a 10 ft. flex hose for now -moving it from tool to
tool. I does a great job on the jointer, planer, and band saw, but i'm a
little disappointed with the collection on the tablesaw. There is so much
sawdust thrown on top of the table and on me! I'm guessing this will get
worse with a zero clearance insert. There are probably plenty of folks out
there with this exact combo. Any tips on ways to improve collection, other
than an overhead guard?
Thanks.

==================

Try experimenting with different blade hights..and feed rates...

The lower the blade the less dust flys right at you... the slower the
feed rate the less flys at you...

After playing around in my shop I have settled on a high blade and a
comfortable feed rate and the HELL with the sawqdust..

I do use an overhead guard with dust collection capabilities
