WARNING: Appropriate personal
protective equipment like dust mask and
gloves should be used while handling
the filters.
To Remove Filters
1. Turn on/off control switch (c) to the OFF position
(O) and unplug cord from outlet.
2. Release canister latches (e) and remove vacuum
head (d) from canister. Place vacuum head on a
level surface upside down.
3. Turn each filter (i) counterclockwise by gripping it
on the plastic end cover as shown, and carefully
remove from head, ensuring debris does not fall
into mounting hole.
NOTE: Use care to not damage filter material.
4 If the bottom side of the vacuum head (d) needs
to be cleaned, use a cloth dampened with
water and mild soap and allow it to dry. Dispose
of cloth in an appropriate container.
5. Inspect filters for wear, tears or other damage.

WALT filter membranes are teflon coated.
E
A type of damage or wear could be this teflon
coating flaking off the membrane, refer to fig 8.
NOTE: If there is any doubt on the condition
of the filters they MUST be replaced. DO NOT
continue use if filters are damaged.
WARNING: Never use compressed
air or a brush to clean filters, otherwise
damage to the filter membrane will
occur which will allow dust to pass
through the filter. If needed, gently tap
against a hard surface. Cleaning of the
filters is typically unnecessary, even if the
filter is covered with dust. The automatic
filter cleaning system will maintain
maximum performance and continue
to function. If visual damage to the filter
membrane exists, replace filters. Filters
typically last between six and twelve
months depending on use and care.
To Install Filters
1. Ensure filter seal (t) is in place and is secure.
2. Line up filter threads (u) to vacuum head threads
and using moderate force, turn filter clockwise
until tight.
NOTE: Use care to not damage filter material.
3. Place the vacuum head (d) onto the container
and secure it by closing the canister latches (e).
