Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A pre-cleaner may include a plurality of spin tubes arranged side-by-side to form a row. Each spin tube may include a longitudinal axis, an inlet at a first end, and an outlet at a second end. The pre-cleaner may also include a manifold enveloping the outlets of the plurality of spin tubes and configured to receive and direct dust away from the outlets. The manifold may include a cover portion extending along and adjacent the row of spin tubes at a position along the longitudinal axis that is between the respective outlets and first ends of the spin tubes. The manifold may also include a trough extending along the row of spin tubes and defining a collection area that is arranged at a position along the longitudinal axis that is beyond the second ends of the spin tubes. A method of dust removal is also described.
