On the face of it, it'd be easy to implement, just get a decent size cartridge or bag filter housing and add a pump.
BUT!!!
The problem is how you're going to control it and tell it to go ON when machining, but definitely go OFF when not!
Depending on how your machine is set up, the best scenario I came up with ( never implemented it though ) is to take the output of the machining tank
and let it flow into a separate double section tank ( made on your own!!! )
The first section is where the dirty water flows into. Install a pump that takes this and pumps it into the other section through a filter.
Then, this semi-clean section is what overflows back into the dirty side of the reservoir.
Sounds simple right?
Except it would be a bitch to have to walk around all the time.
A much simpler solution I actually installed on the Brothers is to take the drain plug on your dirty reservoir, connect a hose to it which is on the suction
side of a shallow well pump.
The pump is now sucking from the dirty tank, pumps into a #2 filter bag, and then it discharges back into the dirty tank to be rinsed and repeated ...
Simple right?
Except it really doesn't give you much of a relief, as your main filters typically get clogged by the extra fine debris which this extra filter doesn't take out,
and then,
you're still left with an insanely dirty machining tank ...
I feel your pain man!
It sucks to be dealing with the dirt...
