CARTRIDGE FILTER
The cartridge filter can be used for dry pick up and small quantities of wet pick up. Installation is the same
for both. When picking up fine dust or powders a high efficiency filter bag must be used with the cartridge
filter.
1. If a foam sleeve is installed on the lid cage, remove it by sliding it off the lid cage.
NOTE: If the cartridge filter has been used for wet pick up, it must be cleaned and
dried before using it for dry pick up.
2. With the tank cover in an upside down position, slide the cartridge down over the
lid cage, pushing until the filter seals against the cover.
3. Place the filter retainer into the top of the cartridge filter. Hold the tank cover with
one hand, turn the handle on the filter retainer clockwise to lock the filter into
place.
4. To remove the filter for cleaning, hold the tank cover and turn the filter retainer
counter-clockwise to loosen and remove.
5. Slide the cartridge filter off the lid cage.
6. Clean the filter by shaking or gently brushing off excess dirt. Extremely dirty filters may be cleaned with
water by rinsing from the inside of the filter. Dry completely (approximately 24 hours).
7. Check the filter for tears or small holes. If none are found, reinstall the filter. To prevent damage to your
vacuum, do not use a filter with a hole or tear.
NOTICE
particles of dust. The filter can be used for wet or dry pick up. 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. The filter may become saturated when
picking up large quantities of liquid causing misting to appear in the exhaust air. At this
time, you should dry or change the filter to eliminate this occurrence. Please handle the
filter carefully when removing it for cleaning or when installing it. Check the filter for tears
or small holes. Even a small hole can cause dust to be exhausted. Do not use a filter with
holes or tears. Replace it immediately.
