Cartridge (Panel) Filter

To insure continued maximum efficiency of the dust control system on your sweeper, the cartridge filter should be removed and cleaned often. The frequency of this cleaning is related to the sweeping appliaction; i.e., the dustier the area is, the more frequently the filter should be cleaned.

Cleaning Panel Filter

Remove from machine and tap gently on flat surface, dirty side down. (See Fig. 5)

OR

Use compressed air (100 psi maximum), directing it through the panel opposite the direction of the arrows.

OR

Soak for fifteen minutes in water and a low-foaming, mild detergent. Rinse with water until clean (maximum 40 psi).

Air Dry - Do not use compressed air.

Accordion Type Cloth Filter (Optional)

To insure continued maximum efficiency of the dust control system on your sweeper, the cloth type filter should be frequently shaken (See Fig. 6) using the handles provided. The dustier an area is, the more often the shakedown should be done. The dust hopper should then be emptied.
