MAINTENANCE
FILTER (Fig. 11)
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injury from accidental
starting, unplug power cord before changing or
cleaning filter.
NOTE: The Filter (I) is made of high quality paper designed
to stop small particles of dust. The Filter can be used for
dry pick up or small amounts of liquid. Handle the Filter
carefully when removing or installing it. Creases in the Filter
Pleats may occur from installation but will not affect the
performance of the Filter.

Lock™ Stud, that protrudes through the center of the
Filter Plate, lift up on the Tabs until Filter releases.

the Filter Cage while aligning the Qwik Lock™ Stud on
the Filter Cage with the center hole in the Qwik Lock™
Integrated Filter Plate.

CLEANING A DRY FILTER
1. Some removal of dry debris can be accomplished
without removing the Filter from the Vac. Slap your
hand on top of the Lid while the Vac is turned OFF.
2. For best cleaning results due to accumulated dust, clean
the Filter in an open area. Cleaning SHOULD be done
outdoors and not in the living quarters.
3. After Filter removal from Vac, remove the dry debris by
gently tapping Filter against the inside wall of your Dust
Drum. The debris will loosen and fall.
4. For thorough cleaning of Dry Filter with fine dust (no
debris), run water through Filter as described under
"Cleaning A Wet Filter".
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.
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 dust to come out of your Vac.
Replace it immediately.
Allow the Filter to dry completely before reinstalling and
storing the Vac or picking up dry debris.
