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 used
and positioned correctly 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:
WS11045F (Standard) and
WS12045F (Fine Dust).
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.
c. If you are using your vacuum to pick
up very fine dust, it will be necessary
for you to empty the drum and clean
the Filter at more frequent intervals to
maintain peak vacuum performance.
