I am looking at putting in an oneida cyclone system. All my (machine)ports are 4" and I plan to run a 4" flex to the 6" branches of the main vac into each machine. What is the best way to reduce it down to the 4" flex hose?

Thanks
Richard

X 2 Ha Ha

Keep your 6" runs as long as possible an get as close to the machine with it. Little or no 4" is best.

Sorry, it wasn't clear, 4" ports on the machines. :D

Todd when you say " convert". Do you mean using a 5" adapter in the 4" port or structurally modifying the port on the machines?

Make sure you ground that S&D stuff.
