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 as
needed from retailers carrying
WORKSHOP Wet/Dry Vacuums or from
www.WORKSHOPvacs.com.
The available Filters include:
1. Half-Height Pleated Paper Cartridge
Filters
a. The available Half Height Pleated
Paper Cartridge Filters include
catalog numbers
WS11045F (Standard) and
WS12045F (Fine Dust).
b. Each of these Pleated Paper
Cartridge Filters is 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.

b. The Dust Collection Bag is
intended for cleaning up dry debris
ONLY.
c. If the debris being picked up has
any moisture, the bag will absorb
the moisture and may deteriorate
very quickly, making the bag non-
functional.
d. If you are using your vacuum to
pick up fine dust, the Dust
Collection Bag will make cleanup
easier.
Note: Dust Collection Bags MUST be
used in conjunction with a Pleated
Paper Cartridge Filter.
