Filter Cleaning

Your Filter should be cleaned often to maintain peak Vac
performance.
Be sure to dry the Filter before storing or picking up dry
debris.
IMPORTANT: After cleaning, check the Filter for tears or
small holes. Do not use a Filter with holes or tears in it. Even
a small hole can cause a lot of dust to come out of your Vac.
Replace it immediately.

Cleaning A Dry Filter

Some removal of dry debris can be accomplished without
removing the Filter from the Vac. Slap your hand on top of
the Powerhead while the Vac is turned OFF.
For best cleaning results due to accumulated dust, clean the
Filter in an open area. Cleaning SHOULD be done outdoors
and not in the living quarters.
After Filter removal from Vac, remove the dry debris by gently
tapping the Filter against the inside wall of your Dust Drum.
The debris will loosen and fall. For thorough cleaning of
dry Filter with fine dust (no debris), run water through it as
Filter Cage
described under "Cleaning A Wet Filter".

After Filter is removed, run water through the Filter from a
Powerhead
hose or spigot. Take care that water pressure from the hose
is not strong enough to damage Filter.
