DRY PICK UP
A WARN I NG -
ALWAYS DISCONNECT
THE PLUG FROM THE
WALL OUTLET BEFORE REMOVING THE TANK COVER.
A CAUTION -
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 FOAM SLEEVE AND
REUSABLE DRY FILTER
(Not standard with all models)
To pick up dust and dry material, you must install foam sleeve and reusable dry filter to ensure
proper filtration. NOTE: For E87S model filter retainer must be installed. If the vacuum has been
used to pick up liquids, the foam sleeve must be cleaned and dried before installing for dry pick up.
Wrth tank cover in an upside down position, slide foam sleeve down over lid cage pulling until foam
sleeve completely covers lid cage (Figure 11 ). NOTE: Bottom of foam sleeve must be positioned
on the OUTSIDE of groove around lid cage for the reusable dry filter to fit proper1y (Figure 12, 13).
Center the reusable dry filter on lid cage (Figure 14), slide mounting ring down over filter until ring
is positioned against the ribs of the lid cage (Figure 15). The reusable dry filter should always be in
position over the foam sleeve for dry pick up. To remove the filter for cleaning, remove mounting ring
and filter from lid cage (Figure 16). To clean the reusable dry filter, shake off excess dirt and dust or
(depending on the condition of the filter) rinse with water. Allow the filter to dry completely and re-install.
DO NOT MACHINE WASH OR DRY.
IMPORTANT: BEFORE INSTALLING REUSABLE FILTER BE SURE THAT FOAM SLEEVE IS
OUTSIDE OF GROOVE AND AROUND LID CAGE (Figure 12, 13).
NOTE: ENSURE THAT THE MOUNTING RING IS COMPLETELY
SECURE AND IN POSITION BY
PRESSING DOWN FIRMLY AROUND THE RING IN SEVERAL PLACES. BE SURE THE REUSABLE
DRY DISC FILTER COMPLETELY
COVERS THE FOAM SLEEVE. CHECK TO ENSURE THAT ALL
EDGES OF THE REUSABLE DRY FILTER ARE SECURE UNDER THE MOUNTING RING.
INSTALLING THE CARTRIDGE FILTER
(Not standard with all models)
The cartridge filter can be used for wet or dry pick up; installation is the
•-r-----,
same for both. For dry pick up be sure the opening of the inlet deflector
is facing the tank bottom (Figure 17). Use the cartridge filter in position
over the lid cage for most general dry material pick up. With the tank
cover in an upside down position, slide the cartridge filter down over
the lid cage, pushing until the filter seals against the cover (Figure 18).
Place 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 tighten,
locking the filter into place (Figures 19
&
20). To remove the filter for cleaning, again hold the
tank cover and turn the filter retainer counter-clockwise
to loosen and remove, slide the cartridge
filter off the lid cage (Figures 21
&
20). To clean the cartridge filter shake or brush off excess
dirt or rinse (from the inside of the filter) with water, dry completely (approximately 24 hours) and
re-install. (Figures 23
&
24). Note: If the filter has been used for wet pick up, it must be cleaned
and dried before using for dry pick up.
INSTALLING THE
DISPOSABLE FILTER BAG
(Not Standard with All Models)
1. Use for dry pick up only. Use in conjunction with cartridge filter for picking up soot, cement,
plaster or drywall dust.
2. With cord disconnected from receptacle, pull latches in an outward motion and remove tank cover.
3. Unscrew hose locking-nut and remove hose from inlet (Figure 25).
4. Remove inlet deflector from deflector guide (Figure 26). NOTE: Hose must be removed before
inlet deflector can
be taken out.
5. With the opening of the inlet deflector facing the bottom of the filter bag, slide collection bag collar
over deflector matching notches of bag collar to tabs on inlet deflector, bag will only fit properly
one way (Figure
27).
6. Slide deflector with collection bag attached into deflector guide (Figure 28).
