ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Every 3 months, clean the inside of the machine with
a vacuum cleaner, including the filter compartment
and spark arrester. Check the filter for damage or sat-
uration.
Every 12 months, have a qualified technician check
the blower fan and housing for encrusted particles and
clean if necessary. Check the sealing material of the
extraction fan and replace if necessary.
REPLACING THE FILTER CARTRIDGE
Replace the filter when it has been damaged, when
the indicator shows that the filter is clogged, or when
airflow is reduced to the point that extraction perfor-
mance is no longer satisfactory (extracts welding fume
with the hood positioned within 10-15 inches of the
welding arc).
WARNING
The particulate matter collected may be dangerous to
your health. Take necessary precautions so that you
and your fellow workers do not breathe the dust and
particulate. Wear a suitable respirator when disposing
of the particulate.
Check with local authorities for regulations governing
the disposal of this material.
