Choosing the Correct Filter

!
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
damage to the Vacuum, do not run
motor with float in raised position.
A cartridge Filter should be used
and positioned correctly during all
vacuuming operations to avoid
debris leaks and possible damage
to the vacuum motor.
There are a variety of Filters available for
WORKSHOP ® Wet/Dry Vacuums.
The Filters you choose should depend
upon the task you are performing.
Not all available Filters are included with
each model, but they may be purchased
from retailers carrying WORKSHOP
Wet/Dry Vacuums or from
www.WORKSHOPvacs.com.
The available Filters include:
1. Pleated Paper Cartridge Filters
a. The available Pleated Paper
Cartridge Filters include catalog
numbers WS21200F (Everyday Dirt),
WS22200F (Fine Dust), and
WS23200F (HEPA Media).
b. Each of these Pleated Paper
Cartridge Filters are intended for
cleaning up dry debris, however, a
small amount of liquid can be picked
up without damaging the Filter. When
maintained properly, small amounts
of liquid will not cause damage to the
Filter. When picking up larger
amounts of liquid, the Pleated Paper
Cartridge Filter will become
saturated, misting may appear in the
vacuum's exhaust, and the Filter may
be damaged. After using the Vac to
pick up small amounts of liquid, the
Pleated Paper Cartridge Filter must
be dried to avoid mildew and
damage.
