I am looking at 2 catalogs from Delta. One is the 2003-2004 mini catalog
and the other is the 2003-2004 full line catalog. Both of them list the
AP400 Shopmaster Two Bag Dust Collection System as having 5 micron bags.
The AP400 is the model going for around $140. I went online to see about
ordering one and see that they have 30 micron bags everywhere that I look.
What gives? Are both catalogs misprinted or did they change to 30 micron
bags for the 2005 model year?

Thanks for any info?

One of the reasons that particular collector is lower in cost is that it has
always used the 30 micron bags. (misprint) I have one that I bought about 2
years ago and cannot complain about it based on the price. You can
certainly spend a lot more and get better quality but for a small shop, it
has plenty of power and it is relatively quiet. I have my table saw, router
table, miter saw and band saw all hooked up to it with blast gates and
another separate hose just for floor sweeping and I am in a 2 car garage and
cannot complain. I also am using a metal trash can with a turbo lid on it
as a 2 stage collector to keep the big stuff out of the fan blade.

Good luck.
