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.

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