INSTALLING THE CARTRIDGE FILTER
(Not standard with all models)
NOTE: If foam sleeve is in position over lid cage, it must be removed before installing cartridge
filter.
The cartridge filter can be used for wet or dry pick up; installation is the same for both. When
picking up large quantities of liquid please refer to the Wet Pick Up Operation section in this
manual. Use the cartridge filter in position over the lid cage for most general dry material pick
up. With the tank cover in an upside down position, slide the cartridge filter down over the
lid cage, pushing until the filter seals against the cover (Figure 57). Place 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 tighten, locking the filter into place (Figures 58 & 59). To remove the
filter for cleaning, again hold the tank cover and turn the filter retainer counter-clockwise to
loosen and remove, slide the cartridge filter off the lid cage
(Figures 60 & 61). 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 reinstall (Figures
62 & 63). NOTE: If the filter has been used for wet pick up, it must be cleaned and dried
before using for dry pick up.

WARNING FOR FINE DUST & POWDERS
When vacuuming fine dust, or powders of any kind (ex. plaster, drywall dust, cold ashes,
concrete dust, etc.), a high efficiency drywall filter bag must be used. When vacuuming
normal household dust and debris, standard household disposable filter bags may be used.
These "large bag" filters connect to the air inlet fitting on the inside of the vacuum tank.

WET PICK UP OPERATION
Remove ALL dirt and debris found in the tank. The vacuum requires only a minimum of
conversion when going from dry to wet pick up. Remove all dry use filters from the vacuum.
A clean cartridge filter may be used for vacuuming small amounts of liquids. For proper
installation of the cartridge filter refer to Installing the Cartridge Filter. For best results when
vacuuming large quantities of liquid, remove the cartridge filter. When vacuuming liquids
containing debris, it is recommended purchasing a foam sleeve and install over filter cage;
otherwise a foam sleeve is not required for wet pick up. Foam sleeve and additional filters may
be purchased by visiting our website at www.shopvac.com, contacting our customer service
department, or purchasing at your local Shop-Vac
Misting in exhaust air may occur if the filter becomes saturated during wet pick up. If misting
occurs, remove filter and allow to dry or, replace with another dry filter to eliminate the misting
and possible dripping of liquid around the lid. Turn the unit off immediately upon completing
a wet pick up job or when tank is full and ready to be emptied. Raise the hose to drain any
excess liquid into the tank. The interior of the tank should be periodically cleaned.
The foam sleeve should be cleaned periodically as described in the following steps:
1. Always disconnect the plug from the wall receptacle before removing the tank cover. Place
tank cover in an upside down position. Remove foam sleeve by sliding it up and off the lid
cage.
2. Shake excess dust off foam sleeve with a rapid up and down movement.
3. Hold foam sleeve under running water for a minute or two, rinsing from the inside. A water
wash is not always required, depending on the condition of the foam sleeve.
4. Gently wring out excess water, blot foam sleeve with a clean towel, and allow to dry. The
foam sleeve is now ready to be reinstalled on the lid cage.
NOTE: WET PICK UP ACCESSORIES SHOULD BE WASHED PERIODICALLY, ESPECIALLY AFTER
PICKING UP WET, STICKY KITCHEN ACCIDENTS. THIS CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED WITH A WARM
SOLUTION OF SOAP AND WATER.

obstruction. Insert machine hose end into blower port on rear of unit (Figure 70). Twist slightly
to tighten the connection. Caution should be used when using as a blower due to the powerful
force of air when using certain attachments.
