Choosing the Correct Filter

!
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
damage to the Vacuum, do not run
motor with float in raised position.
A cartridge filter should be present,
and in the correct position during
all vacuuming operations to avoid
debris leaks and possible damage to
the vacuum motor.
There are a variety of Filters available for
WORKSHOP ® Wet/Dry vacuums. The
Filters you choose should depend upon
the task you are performing. Not all
available Filters are included with each
model, but they may be purchased as
needed from retailers carrying
WORKSHOP Wet/Dry vacuums or from
www.WORKSHOPvacs.com.
The available Filters include:
1. Pleated Paper Cartridge Filters
a. The available Pleated Paper
Cartridge Filters include catalog
numbers
WS21200F (Everyday Dirt),
WS22200F (Fine Dust), and
WS23200F (HEPA Media).
b. Each of these Pleated Paper
Cartridge Filters are intended for
cleaning up dry debris, however, a
small amount of liquid can be
picked up without damaging the
Filter. When maintained properly,
small amounts of liquid will not
cause damage to the Filter. When
picking up larger amounts of liquid,
the Pleated Paper Cartridge Filter
will become saturated, misting may
appear in the vacuum's exhaust,
and the Filter may be damaged.
After using the Vac to pick up small
amounts of liquid, the Pleated
Paper Cartridge Filter must be dried
to avoid mildew and damage.
