DRY PICK UP
INSTALLING FOAM SLEEVE AND REUSABLE
DRY FILTER
WARNING
– ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE PLUG FROM
THE WALL OUTLET BEFORE REMOVING THE TANK COVER.
When using the reusable dry filter to pick up dust and dry material, you must install foam
sleeve and reusable dry filter to ensure proper filtration. If the vacuum has been used to
pick up liquids, the foam sleeve must be cleaned and dried before installing for dry pick up.
With tank cover in an upside down position, slide foam sleeve down over lid cage pulling
until foam sleeve completely covers lid cage (Figure 5). Center the reusable dry filter on
lid cage (Figure 6), slide mounting ring down over filter until ring is positioned against the
ribs of the lid cage (Figure 7). The reusable dry filter should always be in position over the
foam sleeve for dry pick up. To remove the filter for cleaning, remove mounting ring and filter
from lid cage. To clean the reusable dry filter, shake off excess dirt and dust or (depending
on the condition of the filter) rinse with water. Allow the filter to dry completely and reinstall.
DO NOT MACHINE WASH OR DRY.

WARNING FOR FINE DUST & POWDERS
Do not use for vacuuming fine dust, or powders of any kind (ex. plaster, drywall dust, cold
ashes, concrete dust, etc.). When vacuuming normal household dust and debris, standard
household disposable filter bags may be used. These "large bag" filters connect to the air
inlet fitting on the inside of the vacuum tank.

WET PICK UP OPERATION
Remove ALL dirt and debris found in the tank. The vacuum requires only a minimum of
conversion when going from dry to wet pick up. Remove all dry use filters from the vacuum.
When vacuuming liquids containing debris, it is recommended purchasing a foam sleeve
and install over filter cage; otherwise a foam sleeve is not required for wet pick up. Foam
sleeve and additional filters may be purchased by visiting our website at www.shopvac.
com, contacting our customer service department, or purchasing at your local Shop-Vac ®
distributor.
Misting in exhaust air may occur if the foam sleeve becomes saturated during wet pick up.
If misting occurs, remove foam sleeve and allow to dry or, replace with another dry foam
sleeve to eliminate the misting and possible dripping of liquid around the lid. Turn the unit off
immediately upon completing a wet pick up job or when tank is full and ready to be emptied.
Raise the hose to drain any excess liquid into the tank. The interior of the tank should be
periodically cleaned.
The foam sleeve should be cleaned periodically as described in the following steps:
1. Always disconnect the plug from the wall receptacle before removing the tank cover. Place
tank cover in an upside down position. Remove foam sleeve by sliding it up and off the lid
cage.
2. Shake excess dust off foam sleeve with a rapid up and down movement.
3. Hold foam sleeve under running water for a minute or two, rinsing from the inside. A water
wash is not always required, depending on the condition of the foam sleeve.
4. Gently wring out excess water, blot foam sleeve with a clean towel, and allow to dry. The
foam sleeve is now ready to be reinstalled on the lid cage.
NOTE: WET PICK UP ACCESSORIES SHOULD BE WASHED PERIODICALLY, ESPECIALLY AFTER
PICKING UP WET, STICKY KITCHEN ACCIDENTS. THIS CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED WITH A WARM
SOLUTION OF SOAP AND WATER.
EMPTYING LIQUID WASTES FROM THE TANK
Liquid waste may be emptied by removing the tank cover. To empty, stop the motor and
remove the plug from the wall receptacle. Remove the tank cover and deposit the liquid waste
contents in a suitable drain. After tank is empty, return the cover to its original position. To
continue use, plug the cord into the wall receptacle and turn the unit on.
AUTOMATIC SUCTION SHUT-OFF
The vacuum is equipped with an automatic suction shut-off that operates when picking up
liquids. As the level of the liquid rises in the tank, an internal float rises until it seats itself
against a seal at the intake of the motor, shutting off suction. When this happens, the motor
will develop a higher than normal pitch noise and the suction is drastically reduced. If this
occurs, turn unit off immediately. Failure to turn unit off after float rises and shuts off suction
will result in extensive damage to the motor. To continue use, empty the liquid waste from the
tank as outlined in the previous paragraph.
NOTE: IF ACCIDENTALLY TIPPED OVER, THE VACUUM COULD LOSE SUCTION. IF THIS OCCURS,
PLACE VAC IN UPRIGHT POSITION AND TURN SWITCH OFF. THIS WILL ALLOW THE FLOAT TO
RETURN TO ITS NORMAL POSITION, AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CONTINUE OPERATION.
No lubrication is necessary as the motor is equipped with lifetime lubricated bearings.
Before storing your vacuum cleaner the tank should be emptied and cleaned. The power cord
can be wound around the housing of the unit for convenience (Figure 9). This vacuum should
be stored indoors.
