5-3 Cleaning the Collection Bin (All Models Except SFC 225 and SFC 1000)

Use the following procedure to clean the collection bin:

1.Open the toggle fasteners on the bottom of the filter

2.Remove the collection bin.

3.Empty contents of the collection bin and completely clean it.

4.SFC-A/SFC-K Only: Adjust the counterbalance so that the dump valve remains open from 3/16” to 1/4” (4 mm to 6 mm) when not under vacuum.

5.Wipe down the gasket and collection bin mating surfaces to ensure a good seal. A good vacuum seal is important for proper operation. Replace gasket if necessary.

6.Check the filter element for excessive wear or damage. If the filter element is damaged, replace it immediately. (See Section 5-5 Cleaning/replacing the filter cartridge).

7.Return the collection bin to the bottom of the filter.

8.Close the toggle fasteners.

5-4 Cleaning the Filter Shroud (SFC 225 and SFC 1000 Only)

Use the following procedure to clean the filter shroud:

1.Remove the dust container from the filter shroud by unclamping the band clamp or loosening the drawstring. (Filters that have been trimmed for 5-gallon pails do not have a drawstring.)

2.Empty the contents of the collection bin and completely clean it.

3.Remove the worm clamp from the bottom of the filter stand mounting plate, and remove the filter shroud.

4.Clean the filter shroud by blowing compressed air through it.

5.Slip the filter shroud over the retaining ring located on the bottom side of the filter stand mounting plate. Secure it with the worm clamp provided.

6.Place the dust container below the filter chamber stand and insert the filter shroud.

7.Fasten the filter shroud to the dust container using either a band clamp or the drawstring. (Filters that have been trimmed for 5-gallon pails do not have a drawstring.)
