1. Air nozzle assembly does a GREAT job

   Posted by JRBRYANT on 8th Mar 2019

   My RBI Hawk came with a simple tube that pointed in the general direction of where the cutting occurs. It was held in place by a thick wire that never really allowed me to point the air flow in the proper direction to fully remove the sawdust whilst operating the scroll saw. Since I bought the saw used, I don't know if the thick wire holding the tube in place was the way it was manufactured or if it was a "fix" by the previous owner. I'm guessing it was a fix because I don't think ANY manufacturer would have shipped something out that worked so poorly. After receiving the nozzle assembly, I decided that instead of messing with the bellows and replacing the entire hose, I simply snipped the new hose, near the nozzle, and attached the new nozzle to the old tube. I realize I probably don't get as much airflow since I'm still using the old 1/4" hose... but being able to direct the airflow EXACTLY where I want it is what I was wanting to accomplish in the first place. I felt like I was getting enough airflow through the 1/4" hose, I just couldn't get it pointed in the exact location I desired. The flexible nozzle attached easily and I can now get the airflow pointed in the exact spot where I need it. For me, it was a bit on the pricey side... but WELL worth the money! Since I have plenty of hose left, I may take the time to hook the new hose up to the bellows and see if that actually does make much difference. All that to say... even with using the 1/4" hose and the flexible nozzle, it works GREAT!

2. Replaced dust blower

   The dust blower that I ordered was very good made and works better than original one that came with the saw.

3. Why just replace when you can upgrade?

   If I had removed my broken part first, I could have figured out how to install the new part. I called Hawk and they walked me through it, as usual. The bracket was rather large and could have had a third hole to get the air hose further away from the table. The new hose delivers much more air than the old one.

4. No news is good news

   Since I ordered this for my brother in law and we were a little unsure when we did since it was the 'larger' replacement of what he had...... and I haven't heard any negative comments from him (and I would have if it didn't work) I have to say.... no news is good news.

5. Best update yet !!

   Posted by Jim on 13th Mar 2018

   Update allows you to adjust air stream to the exact spot. Takes older Hawk units with 1/4" air lines & upgrades them with 3/8" lines from bellows to saw blade, you will notice the increased volume of air. This is a no brainier, upgrade today!!

   The item fits perfectly. I appreciate their response to emails!

7. Perfect Upgrade

   Posted by Jason on 6th Dec 2017

   I upgraded my older Hawk with this new hose kit and the pressure increased and the control hose works nicely. I had to drill out just the hole for the hose and grommet below the bellows but that's it. Very easy to install.

   Replaced original (?) cracked and brittle hose. A pleasure to use, just swing it up out of the way for blade changes. Stays where I position it. Had to drill out 2 holes, piece of cake. Love it!

   every thing worked but had to drill a larger hole for the tube.

10. Scroll Sawing at its Best

    Dust control is very good when coupled with an air filter . Is easy to move out of the way and right back when you need it.
