INSTALLING AND CLEANING THE CARTRIDGE
FILTER:
WARNING!
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE
PLUG FROM THE WALL
OUTLET BEFORE REMOVING
THE TANK COVER.
NOTE: If foam sleeve (not standard with all models)
is installed on lid cage, remove before installing the
cartridge filter.
27. The cartridge filter can be used for dry pick up and
small quantities of wet pick up. Installation is the same
for both. When picking up large quantities of water we
recommend using a foam sleeve (not standard with
all models) instead of the cartridge filter. When pick-
ing up fine dust or powders a high efficiency filter bag
(not standard with all models) must be used with
the cartridge filter.
NOTE: If cartridge filter has been used for wet pick
up, it must be cleaned and dried before using it for dry
pick up.

35. Check the filter for tears or small holes. If none are
found, reinstall the filter. To prevent damage to your
vacuum, do not use a filter with a hole or a tear.
WARNING!
KEEP FILTERS CLEAN. EFFICIENCY OF THE VACUUM
IS LARGELY DEPENDENT ON THE FILTER. A CLOGGED
FILTER CAN CAUSE OVERHEATING AND POSSIBLY
DAMAGE THE CLEANER. CHECK THE FILTER
PERIODICALLY AND REPLACE AS REQUIRED.
INSTALLING THE DISPOSABLE FILTER BAG:
WARNING!
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE
PLUG FROM THE WALL

36. Use the disposable filter bag in conjunction with the
cartridge filter for easy disposal of the debris. The bag
is not required for normal dry pick up. When picking up
fine dust or powders a high efficiency filter bag (not
standard with all models) must be used.
NOTE: Use for dry pick up only.

latches in an outward motion and remove the tank
cover.

the lid cage. FIGURE 22.
