CLEANING FOAM FILTER
The foam filter should be cleaned periodically as described in the following
steps:
1. Always disconnect the plug from the car receptacle before removing
the power head. Place power head in an upside down position.
Remove foam filter by taking off the mounting ring then sliding the
filter up and off the lid cage.
2. Shake excess dust off foam filter with a rapid up and down movement.
3. Hold foam under running water for a minute or two, rinsing from
the inside. A water wash is not always required, depending on the
condition of the foam filter.
4. Gently wring out excess water, blot foam with a clean towel, and allow
drying. The foam filter is now ready to re-install.
NOTE:
Wet pick-up accessories should be washed periodically, especially after
picking up wet, sticky liquids. This can be done using a warm solution of
soap and water.
CLEANING REUSABLE CLOTH FILTER
To remove the cloth filter for cleaning, remove mounting ring and filter
from the lid cage. To clean reusable cloth filter, shake off excess dirt and
dust or (depending on the condition of filter) rinse with water. Allow the
filter to dry completely and re-install.
DO NOT MACHINE WASH OR DRY.
WARNING! KEEP FILTER 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.
STORAGE
Before storing your vacuum the tank should be emptied and cleaned.
The power cord can be wound around the housing of the unit for
convenience. The unit and filters should be completely dry.
