CARE AND MAINTENANCE

FILTER REPLACEMENT
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting, unplug power cord before changing
or cleaning filter.
Your filter should be cleaned often to maintain peak vac performance.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the blower wheel and motor, always reinstall the reusable filter
before using the vac for dry pickups and always reinstall the foam filter before using the vac for
wet pickups.
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 cause a lot of dust to come out of your vac. Replace it immediately.
NOTE: Before installing the filter on the vac, clean the area of the lid so that the clamp ring will seal
the bag against the lid and stop small particles from bypassing the filter bag.
If the filter is clean and not damaged, replace it on the filter cage. If it cannot be reused, place a new
filter over the filter cage.
NOTE:
Clean the filter in an open area. Cleaning should be done outdoors and not in living quarters.
WARNING: Do not remove filter cage and float. The float prevents water from entering the impeller
and damaging the motor. The cage prevents fingers from touching the moving impeller.
CLEANING
To keep your wet/dry vac looking its best, clean the outside with a cloth dampened with warm water
and mild soap.
To clean the tank:
1. Dump out debris.
2. Wash tank thoroughly with warm water and mild soap.
3. Wipe out with dry cloth.
STORAGE
Before storing your vac, the dust tank should be emptied and cleaned. The cord should be wrapped
and hung on the unit and the accessories should be kept in the accessory holder so they can be
readily available. The vac should be stored indoors.
