Maintenance
Filter
Your filter should be cleaned often to
maintain peak Vac performance.
NOTE: The filter is made of high quality
material designed to stop small particles
such as sawdust. Handle the filter carefully
when removing to clean or installing a new
filter. Do not tear the filter during removal
or installation if your intent is to reuse the
filter.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the
blower wheel and motor, always reinstall
the filter before using the Vac for dry
material pick-up.
Take the dirty filter to a disposal container
and gently brush away small dirt particles
that may be adhering to the filter material.
IMPORTANT: After cleaning, check the
filter for tears or small holes. Do not use a
filter with holes or tears in it. Even a small
hole can allow a lot of dust to come out of
your Vac. Replace it immediately.
Installation
Before installing the filter on the Vac, clean
the area of the lid so that the retainer band
will seal the bag against the lid and stop
small particles from bypassing the filter
bag.
If the filter is clean and not damaged,
replace it on the filter cage. If it cannot be
reused, place a new filter over the filter
cage.
Replace the retainer band around the
filter. Make sure the retainer band is
positioned on the filter, and the filter
completely covers the filter cage. Also,
make sure the edges of the filter are
completely secured under the retainer
band.
NOTE: Clean the filter in an open area.
Cleaning should be done outdoors and not
in the living quarters.
