IX. Possible Ways to Attach Dust Deputy® Deluxe to Shop Vacuums

You may want to attach your Dust Deputy 

to your shop vacuum for mobility, conve

-

nience or stability. There is no definitive 

way to attach the Dust Deputy to a shop 

vacuum. It will vary with vacuum type and 

intended use. These are just a few exam

-

ples of  possible ways it may be done.

Note: For better mobility and stability use the included 3 casters as shown in the 

assembly instructions.

To prevent tipping, install 

provided casters.

Some vacuums may only require one foam 

block to attach the bucket. This may be 

determined by vacuum body shape.

Cut the provided foam block in half. Drill 

two 1/4” holes through bucket, blocks 

and vacuum as shown, then using 

provided long bolts, washers and nuts, 

attach bucket to vac.

Cut the provided foam block to size. Drill two 

1/4” holes through bucket, blocks and vacuum 

as shown, then using provided long bolts, 

washers and nuts, attach bucket to vac.

The mounting is only limited by your

imagination.

Use the foam blocks as spacers 

between the vac and bucket then put 

the assembled Dust Deputy into the at-

tached bucket to hold it securely to the 

vacuum. Attach the appropriate hoses 

and you’re ready to go.

Use the foam block as upper spacer between 

the vac and bucket then put the assembled 

Dust Deputy into the attached bucket to hold 

it securely to the vacuum. Attach the appropri

-

ate hoses and you’re ready to go.

VI. Assembly Instructions for Deluxe Dust Deputy® Kit

Caster holes must be a minimum 

1” from bucket bottom edge so 

caster doesn’t hit rim of bucket 

when wheeled around.

1.) Position drum so that lead caster 

hole is drilled in bottom of bucket on 

caution side as shown in Fig. 1. This 

is so safety instructions are not cov

-

ered up by foam block and are easily 

read. 

Holes must be at least 1” 

from bucket bottom rim so caster 

can freely swivel (Fig. 2)when unit 

is wheeled around

. Use a 5/16” drill 

bit for holes. Drill the holes in a tri-

angular pattern as shown in diagram 

below and Fig. 3.

(You’ll want to drill an extra hole in 

the bottom to make it easier to pull 

out second bucket for emptying.)

2.) Put casters through bot

-

tom of bucket and fasten with 

the provided washers and 

1/2” hex head nuts as shown 

in Fig. 4.

3.) Wheel the bucket up to your shop 

vacuum and see where the best 

placement for foam block will be on 

your vac. Mark where block will attach 

on your vacuum and bucket as shown 

in Fig. 5. 

You should attach bucket 

to the side of vacuum opposite the 

vac inlet. See Example 1.

This is just one example of attaching the Deluxe Dust 

Deputy® to a shop vacuum. Most shop vacuums will 

use similar steps but you may have to modify slightly 

for your particular vacuum.
