2) Place the filter retainer cap on top of cartridge filter over the raised lip and tighten the retainer
lock clockwise to secure against the internal filter cage (Fig. 7).
3) Fit the nylon pre-filter over the cartridge filter and secure with the draw string (Fig. 8).
4) Optionally, fully fit the dust bag flange onto the inlet stub. The Vacuum cleaner can we be used
with or without dust bags.
IMPORTANT: Check the filter regular for optimal performance. An old or blocked filter will reduce
suction performance.
For Wet Vacuuming:
1) To prepare your vacuum cleaner for wet vacuuming, remove the retainer cover and the dry use
cartridge filter and nylon pre-filter.
2) Carefully install the supplied foam filter over the internal filter cage, making sure the whole cage
is covered (Fig. 9).
WARNING:
DO NOT USE THE CARTRIDGE FILTER FOR WET VACUUMING.
DO NOT USE A DUST COLLECTION BAG FOR WET VACUUMING.
IMPORTANT! When vacuuming large quantities of liquids, do not immerse the nozzle completely;
leave a gap at the tip of the nozzle to allow air inflow. The machine is fitted with a float valve that
stops the suction action when the container reaches its maximum capacity. You will notice an
increase in motor noise. When this happens, turn off the machine, disconnect from power supply,
and drain the liquid.
