FILTER INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE (CONT'D.)
Follow the instructions for the filter that came with your vacuum. Some filters mentioned do not come
standard with all vacuums. Additional filters are available at your local dealer or the Shop-Vac
CARTRIDGE FILTER
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 fine dust or powders a high efficiency filter bag must be used with the cartridge
filter.
1. If a foam sleeve is installed on the lid cage, remove it by sliding it off the lid cage. NOTE: If the cartridge
filter has been used for wet pick up, it must be cleaned and dried before using it for dry pick up.
2.
With the tank cover in an upside down position, slide the cartridge down over the lid
cage, pushing until the filter seals against the cover.
3.
Place the filter retainer into the top of the cartridge filter. Hold the tank cover with
one hand, turn the handle on the filter retainer clockwise to lock the filter into place.
4.
To remove the filter for cleaning, hold the tank cover and turn the filter retainer
counter-clockwise to loosen and remove.
5.
Slide the cartridge filter off the lid cage.
6.
For standard cartridge filters and Ultra-Web
brushing off excess dirt. Extremely dirty filters may be cleaned with water by rinsing from the inside of
the filter. Dry completely (approximately 24 hours).
For CleanStream
Abrasive Resistant cartridge filter, tap end cap against hard surface to loosen debris.

Additional debris can be removed by rinsing outside surface of the filter with running water. Avoid
dampening inside of filter. Completely air dry after washing. IMPORTANT: DO NOT BRUSH. DO NOT
clean filter with abrasive materials or scrub between pleats. This will permanently damage the filters
ability to stop dust.
7.
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 tear.
NOTICE
–
This filter is made of high quality paper designed to stop small
particles of dust. The filter can be used for wet or dry pick up. A dry filter is necessary to
pick up dry material. If you use your vac to pick up dust when the filter is wet, the filter
will clog quickly and be very difficult to clean. The filter may become saturated when
picking up large quantities of liquid causing misting to appear in the exhaust air. At this
time, you should dry or change the filter to eliminate this occurrence. Please handle the
filter carefully when removing it for cleaning or when installing it. Check the filter for tears
or small holes. Even a small hole can cause dust to be exhausted. Do not use a filter with
holes or tears. Replace it immediately.
WARNING
–
DEPENDENT ON THE FILTER. A CLOGGED FILTER CAN CAUSE OVERHEATING AND POSSIBLY
DAMAGE THE CLEANER. CHECK THE FILTER PERIODICALLY AND REPLACE AS REQUIRED.
