Dry Pick-Up
1. The filter must always be in correct position to reduce
the risk of leaks and possible damage to vac. Make sure
that the filter is completely covering the filter cage.
Make sure there are no gaps between the filter and
the lid. It is very important to assemble the filter to the
cage without allowing any possible leaks or tears. Any
leaks will allow the picked up debris to be blown out
of the blowing port and back into the surrounding
environment.
2. When using your vac to pick up very fine dust, it will be
necessary to empty the dust tank and clean or replace
the filter at more frequent intervals to maintain peak vac
performance.
Note: A dry filter is necessary to pick up dry material. If you
use your vac to pick up dust when the filter is wet, the filter
will clog quickly and be very difficult to clean. If the filter
gets wet, replace it before continuing to do dry pickups.
Installing the Cartridge Filter (Fig. F)
The cartridge filter can be used for wet or dry pick,
installation is the same for both.
1. With the power head in an upside down position, slide
the cartridge filter down over the lid cage, push the filter
seals against the power head.
2. Turn the knob on filter retainer clockwise to tighten,
locking the filter into place.
3. To remove the filter for cleaning, turn the filter knob
counter clockwise till feel the tactile and auditory cue,
and make sure the knob arrow align with the "Unlock"
icon on the filter cap, then slide the cartridge filter off
the lid cage.
4. 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.
