OPERATION
WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, turn unit off before making any
adjustments or removing/installing attachments
or accessories. An accidental start-up can
cause injury.
Dry Pick-Up
1. The filter must always be in correct position to reduce
the risk of leaks and possible damage to vac. Make sure
that the filter is completely covering the filter cage.
Make sure there are no gaps between the filter and
the lid. It is very important to assemble the filter to the
cage without allowing any possible leaks or tears. Any
leaks will allow the picked up debris to be blown out
of the blowing port and back into the surrounding
environment.
2. When using your vac to pick up very fine dust, it will be
necessary to empty the dust tank and clean or replace
the filter at more frequent intervals to maintain peak vac
performance.
Note: 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. If the filter
gets wet, replace it before continuing to do dry pickups.
Installing the Cartridge Filter (Fig. D)
The cartridge filter can be used for wet or dry pick,
installation is the same for both.
1. With the power head in an upside down position, slide
the cartridge filter down over the lid cage, push the filter
seals against the power head.
2. Turn the knob on filter retainer clockwise to tighten,
locking the filter into place.
3. To remove the filter for cleaning, turn the filter knob
counter clockwise till feel the tactile and auditory cue,
and make sure the knob arrow align with the "Unlock"
icon on the filter cap, then slide the cartridge filter off
the lid cage. then grasp the step of knob tightly with
fingers to pull the cartridge filter out off the cage.
4. 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 re-install.

Wet Pick-Up (Fig. F)
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 filter from the
vacuum. A clean cartridge filter may used for vacuuming
small amounts of liquids. For best results when vacuuming
large quantities of liquid, remove the cartridge filter. When
vacuuming liquids containing debris, it is recommended
purchasing a foam filter and install over filter cage. Foam
filter may be purchased by visiting our website at www.
dewalt.com, contacting our customer service department,
or purchasing at your local DEWALT distributor. When
picking up large amounts of liquid we recommend that
the filter be removed. If the filter is not removed, it will
become saturated and misting may appear in the exhaust.
At this time, you should dry or replace the cartridge filter to
eliminate the misting and possible dripping of liquid around
the lid. After completing a wet pick-up job, raise the hose to
drain any excess liquid into the tank before shutting off. The
interior of tank should be periodically cleaned.
1. Always disconnect the plug from the wall outlet before
removing the power head. Place power head in an
upside down position. Remove cartridge filter by sliding
it up and off the filter cage.
2. Shake excess dust off cartridge filter with a rapid up and
down movement.
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.
