WARNING
WALL OUTLET BEFORE REMOVING THE TANK COVER.
When using the reusable dry filter to pick up dust and dry
material, you must install foam sleeve and reusable dry
filter to ensure proper filtration. If the vacuum has been
used to pick up liquids, the foam sleeve must be cleaned
and dried before installing for dry pick up. With tank cover
in an upside down position, slide foam sleeve down over lid
cage pulling until foam sleeve completely covers lid cage
(Figures 31, 32). Center the reusable dry filter on lid cage
(Figure 33), slide mounting ring down over filter until ring is
positioned against the ribs of the lid cage (Figure 34). The
reusable dry filter should always be in position over the foam
sleeve for dry pick up. To remove the filter for cleaning, remove mounting ring
and filter from lid cage (Figure 35). To clean the reusable dry filter, shake off
excess dirt and dust or (depending on the condition of the filter) rinse with water.
Allow the filter to dry completely and reinstall. DO NOT MACHINE WASH OR DRY.
