Cleaning A Wet Filter

After filter is removed, run water through
the filter from a hose or spigot. Take care
that water pressure from the hose is not
strong enough to damage filter.
Remember: To dry a filter quickly, reinstall
the filter on the vac and allow the unit to
run for approximately 10 minutes. The
clean air rushing through the filter will dry it.
Installation
Refer to page 5 "Replacement Filter
Assembly" Section of this manual.
Allow the filter to dry before reinstalling
and storing the vac.
Cleaning and Disinfecting the
Wet/Dry Vac
To keep your Wet/Dry Vac looking its
best, clean the outside with a cloth
dampened with warm water and mild
soap.
To clean the drum:
1. Dump debris out.
2. Wash drum thoroughly with warm
water and mild soap.
3. Wipe out with dry cloth.
Before prolonged storage or as needed
(i.e.; waste water pick up) the drum
should be disinfected.
To disinfect the drum:
1. Pour 1 gallon of water and 1 teaspoon
chlorine bleach into the drum.
2. Let solution stand for 20 minutes,
carefully swishing every few minutes,
making sure to wet all inside surfaces
of the drum.
3. Empty drum after 20 minutes. Rinse
with water until bleach smell is gone.
Allow drum to dry completely before
sealing the motor on the drum.

Storage

Before storing your vac, the dust drum
should be emptied and cleaned. The cord
should be wrapped around the unit and
the hose should be stored as described
in this manual. Accessories should be
kept in the same area as the vac so they
can be readily available. The vac should
be stored indoors.

Casters

If your casters are noisy, you may put a
drop of oil on the roller shaft to make
them quieter.
SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs
and adjustments should be
performed by Authorized Service
Centers, always using RIDGID
replacement parts.
