First Claim
1. A vacuum operated dust collection and removal system for hardwood floor sanding operations comprising:
- a collection source for wood dust generated by a floor sanding operation;
a primary vacuum source in communication with said collection source;
a secondary vacuum source in communication with said primary vacuum source wherein said communication between said secondary vacuum source, said primary vacuum source, and said collection source comprises a series of first conduit members of a first diameter, said secondary vacuum source having one of said series of first conduit members of said first diameter extending therefrom and terminating in a first splitter coupling;
a plurality of second conduit members of a lesser diameter than and said first conduit member removably secured to said first splitter coupling and extending therefrom said second conduit members of said lesser diameter terminating in a first reducer coupling;
a third conduit member of a lesser diameter than said second conduit member, said third conduit member removably secured to said reducer coupling and terminating in a second splitter coupling; and
a plurality of fourth conduit members of lesser diameter than said third conduit member, said fourth conduit members being removably secured to a machine performing an operation on said floor.
