FILTER INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
FILTRATION SYSTEM
There are a variety of filters available for your vacuum. There are cage filters that install onto the underside
of the tank cover and tank filters that install into the tank. The filters are grouped into three filtration
categories. General filtration is used for large debris; such as, wood chips, nails and gravel. Medium
filtration is used for medium debris; such as, dirt, sand and sawdust. Fine filtration is used for fine debris;
such as drywall dust, cold ash and cement dust. It is important to have the correct filters installed for your
cleaning operation to protect your vacuum motor. THE MOST EFFICIENT FILTRATION FOR YOUR VACUUM IS A
FINE FILTRATION CAGE FILTER WITH A FINE FILTRATION TANK FILTER.
NOTE: When using the vacuum to pick up very fine dust. It will be necessary to empty the tank and clean
the cage filter at more frequent intervals to maintain maximum pick up power or add a disposable filter bag.
DRY PICK UP OPERATION
NOTE: Never use the vacuum for dry pick up without a dry use filter installed. Using the vacuum without a
filter will cause dust to discharge from the blower port and cause damage to the motor.
WARNING
BEFORE REMOVING THE TANK COVER.
Follow the instructions for the filter that came with your vacuum. Some filters mentioned do not come
standard with all vacuums. Additional filters are available at your local dealer or the Shop-Vac
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. For standard cartridge filters and Ultra-Web
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).

Additional debris can be removed by rinsing outside surface of the filter with running water. Avoid
dampening inside of filter. Completely air dry after washing. IMPORTANT: DO NOT BRUSH. DO NOT clean
filter with abrasive materials or scrub between pleats. This will permanently damage the filters ability to
stop dust.
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.
