FILTER INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE (CONT'D.)
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.
DISPOSABLE FILTER BAG
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
must be used. NOTE: For dry use only.
1. Make sure the cord is disconnected from the receptacle, tank cover is removed and the hose is
disconnected from tank inlet.
2. Remove inlet deflector from deflector guide. NOTE: Hose must be removed before
inlet deflector can be taken out.
3. With the opening of the inlet deflector facing the left or right side of the filter bag,
slide filter bag collar over deflector matching notches of bag collar to tabs on inlet
deflector. Bag will only fit properly one way.
4. Slide deflector with filter bag attached into deflector guide.
5. Reinsert hose into inlet and tighten locking-nut. When secured in place expand bag and position around
inside of tank.
6. NOTE: When removing filter bag from tank, remove inlet deflector from filter bag collar and reinstall into
deflector guide. Inlet deflector should always be in place for any type of cleaning.
WARNING
–
