Filter Cleaning

Your filter should be cleaned often to maintain peak vac performance.

Some removal of dry debris can be accomplished without removing the filter from the vac. Slap your hand on top of the power assembly while the vac is turned off and remove from the storage rack.

After filter removal from vac, remove the dry debris by gently tapping the filter

against the inside wall of your dust vac canister. The debris will loosen and fall.

For thorough cleaning of dry filter with fine dust (no debris), run water through it 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.

run for approximately 10 minutes. The clean air rushing through the filter will dry it.
