MAINTENANCE
Filter Cleaning
WARNING:
!
To reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting,
unplug power cord before changing or cleaning filter.
Your Filter should be cleaned often to maintain peak Vac
performance.
After dirty Filter Bag removal from the Vac, remove the dry
debris by gently tapping Filter against the inside wall of
the disposal container.
NOTE: Clean the Filter Bag in an open area. Cleaning
should be done outdoors and not in the living quarters.
IMPORTANT: After cleaning, check the Filter Bag for tears
or small holes. Tears and holes in the Filter Bag can cause
debris and dust to be blown from the Vac. Do not use a Filter
Bag with holes or tears. Replace immediately.
Filter Removal and Replacement (Fig. Q)
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the Blower Wheel and
Motor, always reinstall the Filter Bag before using the Vac for
dry material pick-up.
1. Extend the Retainer Band around the Plastic Notches
on the Powerhead Assembly.
2. Remove Filter Bag off the Filter Cage.
3. Place the replacement Filter Bag on the Filter Cage
until open end touches bottom of the Powerhead
Assembly.
4. Release the Retainer Band from the Plastic Notches
on the Powerhead Assembly, holding the Filter Bag
secure to the Powerhead Assembly.
5. Make sure the Retainer Band is positioned on the Filter
Bag between the printed lines.
NOTE: Filter Bag is sold by Stock No. CMXZVBE38737.
NOTE: Before installing the Filter Bag on the Vac, clean the
area of the Powerhead Assembly so that the Retainer Band
will seal the bag against the Powerhead Assembly and stop
small particles from bypassing the Filter Bag.
If the Filter Bag is clean and not damaged, replace it on the
Filter Cage. If it cannot be reused, place a new Filter Bag over
the Filter Cage.
