Worked as advertised. Simple to install because the video was right on point. Took me about 20 minutes to install because I was stopping and starting video to follow instructor step by step. Could cut that time in half if I had to install another one. Hooked it up to my dust collector and I would estimate that it collects aprox 90 percent of the sawdust. Would recommend this to anyone. Thanks guys for a product that performs as described ✌️

The product does do better than the OEM system. I would say it collects about 70% of the dust. I do wish it was made out of something more durable than plastic. The first unit I bought I had a kick back on the saw that hit the dust collector, and it shattered into multiple pieces.

Although it doesn’t collect 100% of dust it is an extremely good piece.
Operating with my cyclone separator and shop vacuum it is really helping me keep my little 12x16 shop cleaner. Well worth the money!
Kirk D.
Excellent products and services.
Michael M.
Simple to install. Knocked the dust down behind my saw by an easy 80%.
Mark H.
Had an awesome, supportive conversation with the support people. My first chute broke and they were able to help with getting me a new one and sending instructions on what to watch out for with the next one. My hercules saw is very very dusty without this chute. This is a must have for me. Great fitting and dust collector chute. Very easy to install took 15 minutes. Cutting without nope!

This was between a 3 or a 4. This thing perfect and directions were spot on. It also works good for the space they give with this machine. Only reason for the 3 is that I cut into the rubber collector almost right away. It now has multiple cuts in it and we just rolled w it being we were outside. For the price, it was disheartening that happened. But they did send two and we will replace it. Other than that. Great quality and great fitment
William M.
This addition to collect about 80% more dust then the stock version was worth the investment, I now spend a lot less time cleaning up lingering dust in my garage and ample time on my woodworking projects.
Steven N.
Easy to attach especially with the video. It's my first miter saw so it's hard for me to be objective. Seems to pickup alot of the sawdust but not sure how much more verses the OEM attachment.
Richard F.
Looks good and works great
Cameron M.
Good but not great
Phil C.
Massive improvement on dust collection!
Keith H.
Very pleased with my Dust Collection Chute for Hercules HE74 Miter Saw. The design and part quality was very good. Thanks to the installation video, it only took me about a half hour to completely install the chute.
I was very surprised by how effective it was removing saw dust with my vacuum/cyclone setup. It is not 100% effective, nothing is. But it was effective enough to make me much happier at clean up time:)
Nathan M.
Works better than the oem solution for sure but needs improvements. Specifically needs metal inserts on the mounting points as you have to remove this collector to change blades and plastic will wear out over time.
Rick W.
Fits and works perfectly
Gerald jr E.
Went on easy, second one i bought for my two saws, it collects 99.5% of the saw dust, works great….. everyone should give it a try….
Michael S.
I was VERY skeptical about how much better this could be from the OEM on my Hercules 12" compound miter saw. WOW! While it doesn't look that much bigger than the OEM dust collection the difference is amazing. Way less dust to clean up. I wonder if Harbor Freight is paying attention?
James A.
It is not perfect but it does eliminate a major portion of the sawdust during operation. The installation was also easy!
Nathan
Works well for dust collection improvement.
That said, the build quality needs to be better. Metal inserts need added to the 4 mounting screws as the plastic will eventually wear from threading and unthreading the screws. A need brought on by the fact that to remove/replace the blade the operator also needs to remove the dust collector since the dust collector v7 traps the blade.

While cutting on a 44.5 degree angle blade cut into rubber chute. Sent pictures to your email a few days ago.
Brian M.
I have only used it a few times thus far, but I have noticed a big difference.
Joseph W.
Nice upgrade addition to the Hercules 12 inch miter saw. You still get the saw dust, but its not even close to what it was before the upgrade. Thanks for a very nice product. Joe W.
Don H.
Easy installation and it works great.
Roger L.
Works as advertised
Steve S.
Easy to install and works better than what came with the saw.
Ed Y.
It was a breeze to install and works very well
Gary G.
I bought this for a friend and installed it for him in his shop. Your product was easy to install and works very well.
Steve was very impressed with your product.
charles b.
Installation was easy, except for finding correct driver to remove original screws. Very little dust when connected to a strong vacuum.
Eric & Heather A.
This install was pretty easy. It has reduced the dust by at least 90% when I remember to turn on the vacuum before the saw.
Orlando R.
The items arrived quickly and the installation was very straight forward and very easy to install, haven't used it yet but the overall concept is way better than the original by a long shot and like the color match to the brand gives it a nice touch, thank you.
Brian P.
Night and day difference adding this to my Hercules miter saw. I’ve always hated using my miter saw because of the cleanup afterwards. Not anymore!
David P.
Perfect fit. Would recommend product.
Thomas G.
I don’t see how that design can possibly work. I am going to start a return.
Ed
The fit is great, although i have not had a chance to use it much, but so far it looks good.
Dennis H.
Works as stated. Installation was straightforward.
Daniel D.
It fit perfectly and does great job collecting dust and chip from saw
Mark L.
I installed the dust collection on my Hercules saw and it fit great and installed pretty easy especially watching the video
It works great so far
Harry A.
Excellent Product, fit was perfect and works great.
Ross B.
Followed the directions and everything went smoothly. It's much better than factory system. Thank you for providing an extra rubber flap. I hope I don't lose it when/if I need it!
Kenny A.
One of the best thing I've done to my miter saw. The customer service is amazing
PAUL T.
Works better than I hoped for. This is an excellent product.
Christopher L.
At best I see about a 40% reduction in the dust spread from the Hercules. it appears the opening is narrow due to the saw design. The screw in rigid tube (black) hit against the motor housing too tightly to use without a slight modification. I still like the unit and would consider it on a different saw.
Thomas W.
Much better collection than the factory version. Excellent construction
William M.
Was easy to install very streight forwar instructions It collects at least 75% more than the stock collector.
THOMAS W.
Freaking awesome for reducing dust! This should be a stock item included on all miter saws!
John D.
Fit perfectly. Works great! My blowby has been reduced by probably 90%.
David P.
The installation video was so detailed, it made installation a breeze. I'm now getting amazing dust collection on my miter saw.
john c.
Works great. Catches 98% of chips and dust. Just remember to turn vacuum on.
Yengleng V.
Very good and happy with product.
David
Fantastic installation video and the dust collection is amazing.
James
Excellent fit and greatly reduces dust.
Chuck F.
Everything fit well and. Improved dust collection
Shawn B.
Everything fit as promised and it definitely improved dust control
Darrell T.
It helped a little.
Toy W.
Does a good job keeping the saw dust collected
Rowdy B.
My order came in a timely manner and all necessary parts arrived. In the box was a QR code for a quick tutorial video that was specifically tailored for my machine. Installation was QUICK AND EASY!
Dust collection improvement was improved exactly as advertised!
My only regret is that I had not thought of this 10 years ago....... Good Job Shop Nation!!!
Stuart H.
The product was just as described, watched installation video, it couldn't have been easier. Dust collection now is awesome, stock collection was useless, now I don't have to clean up, as long as I remember to turn on my vacuum.
Thomas B.
It works as advertised
Scott G.
Easy to install, great video, eliminates almost all sawdust. Great product!
Kevin W.
Fit perfectly and video very helpful!
Anthony T.
Easy to install, video is well made. Highly recommended
Taylor W.
Frankly, the hardest part was cleaning up the dust that had accumulated before I installed this. It went on easy, save for my fumbling meat hooks. The install video was straightforward and easy to follow. So far it's an improvement that was well worth the purchase price.
mike d.
Install worked great. The flexible chute get cut when cutting thick stock. First cut after install and it got cut apart.
Wallace L.
Much improved over original set-up
Joseph T.
I don’t often leave reviews for products that I purchase. However, this dust collection system is awesome. Used to create huge messes anytime I had a project this now enables my desk collection system to collect 90 to 95% of the desk created by My miter saw.
Kevin M.
Great product easy to install!
Robert A.
Quick shipping and easy install. Dust collection far superior to stock design.
Donald W.
Update from previous review. Worked great for the first three cuts, then the rubber flap split in the middle making it and the dust collection useless. They do provide an extra flap, but what do you do after that one splits? Wish they could improve this defect and supply a flap that wouldn't split.
joel w.
I am really surprised how well this works. My dust extractor worked pretty well before, but now I have very little to clean up afterwards. ITS A MUST HAVE
Adam d.
Works great! easy to install. Would be nice if the color was a better match for the factory parts..
Josh K.
Great how to video. Product works well.
David S.
It was easy to follow the installation video.
Sandy M.
Time waiting to receiver it was longer then I though
Richard T.
It was an easy installation and seems to work as described. Haven't had the time to continue with the desk thst I'm making for my granddaughter, so that will be the real test! I think it will do the dust collection just fine.
Joseph H.
Works very well. A vacuum or vac system is a must.
I don't have a vac system (yet) but works fine with a shop vac. Still working out remembering to turn on the vac.
Glad I made the purchase, well worth it.
joe
Rich B.
It is not perfect but it is light years better than the factory dust collection.
Brad P.
The new dust collector system arrived quickly, fit well and seems to work very well. The installation video was a great help. Thank you for a really nice product!
Egidio T.
Easy install and works GREAT
Michael G.
Installation was easy and straight forward on my Hercules saw. It does not get 100% of dust, but, it gets a lot more than the stock setup and a zero insert may help collect even more dust. This will eliminate hours of sweeping and wiping in the shop. Only issue I have had was cutting a small piece to length and the cutoff was drawn into the rubber shoot and tore it. I would buy again and recommend the Hercules 12" Sliding Compound Miter Saw Dust Collection system from Shop Nation.
Scott T.
Product is as described. Collects 95% of the dust that used to be all over my shop. 100% satisfied!
Carolyn J.
Exactly what I was looking for!
Michael H.
Easy to install with instructions from video.
Mark A.
3 photos
1st. photo is the dust collection system installed on my Hercules 12" Dual Bevel Compound Miter Saw
2 nd photo is miter saw Area Cleaned
3rd photo showing the dust left behind with dust collection system on and running.
Not 100% doing about 85% to 90% better than original system that came installed on the Hercules Mitee Saw
Duane W.
Perfect fit and easy to install. Works great!
Donald W.
Just installed it, works great, already cut a 12 foot 2x4 into different lengths with what I would say was 90% less dust flying around. I would note that the locking mechanism for the hose attachment kept coming off, but a little tape solved that problem. I used the large adapter to connect the hose to a 2 and half inch hose, which is connected to my 2HP dust collector. Lastly installation was straight forward and the instructional video was right on.
Gary L.
Great addition arrived quickly adaptors for vac sizes were great,however sticky on one makes difficult to change to other machines.
Lance W.
Simply to install and works well
Steve W.
Awesome improvement over factory dust collection. Fit perfectly and assembled in minutes. Highly recommend this for anyone using a miter saw
Philip s.
Great addition to the Hercules saw .very glad I got it thanks
Don K.
I already bought this last year but I had a board kick real bad off the blade that i was using and it busted my first one. The collection of dust was better than the original Hercules so I wanted to replace it.
George eshleman E.
I have the Hercules miter saw. The fit was perfect. I second the advice of other folks; and that is to start the screws and then back them out before you install it. It makes installation a whole lot easier. And it does capture at least 95% or more of the Dust. Very happy and pleased with the fit and finish of the collector.
Matthew F.
Easy install and works way better than stock
Mike L.
It works great, much better than the original.
Ilir K.
Perfect staff. Easy to install and really does good job. Thank you.
Alyssa
Works great. Boyfriend loves
