may used for vacuuming small amounts of liquids. For best results
when vacuuming large quantities of liquid, remove the cartridge
filter. When vacuuming liquids containing debris, it is recommended
purchasing a foam filter and install over filter cage. Foam filter may
be purchased by visiting our website at www.dewalt.com, contacting
our customer service department, or purchasing at your local
DEWALT distributor. When picking up large amounts of liquid we
recommend that the filter be removed. If the filter is not removed,
it will become saturated and misting may appear in the exhaust.
At this time, you should dry or replace the cartridge filter to
eliminate the misting and possible dripping of liquid around the lid.
After completing a wet pick-up job, raise the hose to drain any
excess liquid into the tank before shutting off. The interior of tank
should be periodically cleaned.
1. Always disconnect the plug from the wall outlet before removing
the power head. Place power head in an upside down position.
Remove cartridge filter by sliding it up and off the filter cage.
2. Shake excess dust off cartridge filter with a rapid up and down
movement.
NOTE: WET PICK-UP ACCESSORIES SHOULD BE WASHED
PERIODICALLY, ESPECIALLY AFTER PICKING UP WET,
STICKY KITCHEN ACCIDENTS. THIS CAN BE
ACCOMPLISHED WITH A WARM SOLUTION OF SOAP AND
WATER.
