Can I pair this with a seperator and use it as a dust collector, hooking it up to the dust ports on my router table? Or do I need more CFM?

Lots of people do that, I believe. It's a good way to go because replacement bags are a bit spendy.

probably cold be depending on the table. I have a table that is attached to my Table saw and the router really strong enuff for my purposes on a table. I mostly use this router for dovetails and smaller jobs. To be honest, I now hav e the sister DeWalt model that has a light on it.

Realistically, you are not going to get a satisfactory answer to this. Every company that makes dust collection equipment has a different idea about how to couple their hoses to the collector or vacuum. What you do is you go down to the local hardware store and you find PVC fittings that you can adapt. For this saw, I cut down an old vacuum cleaner hose and then used a length of mountain bike inner-tube to fit tightly over the dust outlet and the vacuum cleaner nozzle end, then snugged everything up with hose clamps.

It should work fine. I have not problems using it with my large dust collector.

i bought 1 80mm fan and am using it for exhaust. i did this to prevent dust building up.

yes and no in my case I an using pc 3 1/2 hp router and I have a saw dust collection system under and over my router table this makes It more complicated to change out but if you don't have this issue I would think its as easy as any other if not easier my whole table set up is jessEm and I am very happy it

Have been using dust right separator with my dewalt surface planer very successfully. My only complaint is that the hose end does not fit into the dust port on the planer as they are the exact same size. I'm sure you can purchase a connector, but I just used duct tape which is not particularly sexy, but does the trick just fine.

I am using it for that set up. Just make sure you run a thick enough power cable (per instructions) and have plenty of ventilation

It works quite well under the table. Google "triton router dust collection" to see what people on woodworking forums have to say about it. Scott

i made it work with Dewalt track saw and a porter cable bench jointer. worked great, but needed to buy special connections from a hardware store. it is a great dust extractor.

I have a small shop and the dust collector is very much in the open. I is not as loud as I expected. Not quiet, but significantly less noise than my shop vac, table saw, etc.

The router sometimes comes with a simple edge guide, it depends who is selling it. The reducer that comes with most 2" vacuum hoses should fit in the dust port on the router. This is an great router with an excellent depth stop mechanism and the best dust extraction I've seen. I own four DW 621 routers.

You need atlest 5 CFM at 90psi you can have lower then 5 but doesn't perform at full potential.

I have mine mounted to the wall and it seems to be running cooler than most routers I've used in the past. I used an extra nail towards the middle/bottom to offset it from the wall by about an inch. It allows airflow to reach the back vents instead of accumulating heat against the wall.

I wrote Dewalt a similar question and this is their word-for-word response: Thank you for contacting DEWALT on-line support. It is not recommended to attach a vac to this unit as the vac will fill up in no time due to the efficiency of the DW735 (95-98% of chips) versus other planers with dust extraction via a vac adapter and vacuum. The port or opening on the planer is there by design to pass a UL probe test, it is not designed to attach a shop vac to it for dust collection. We would recommend using the DW7353 Dust collection system instead of a secondary collector.

I wired my table saw and dust collector to the same box so when I turn the saw on it also turns the collector on. A 20 amp breaker is fine.

I use a Jet DC-650M, a relatively small dust collector, with a cyclone pre-stage through a 4 inch plastic hose. I never have "dust" shooting out the front. I see lots of small "shreds" flowing up the hose. Remote possibility: is the shop vac blowing instead of sucking?
