Maintenance
Filter
Your filter should be cleaned often to
maintain peak vac performance.
NOTE: The filter is made of high quality
material designed to stop very small parti-
cles of dust. Handle the filter carefully
when removing to clean or installing a
new filter. Do not tear the filter during
removal or installation if your intent is to
reuse the filter.
Easy to Replace Filter
1. Extend the retainer band around the
plastic posts on the lid.
2. Remove filter bag off the filter cage.
3. Place the replacement filter on the filter
cage until open end touches bottom of lid.
4. Release the retainer band from the
plastic post on the lid, holding the filter
bag secure to the lid.
5. Make sure the retainer band is posi-
tioned on the filter bag covering the
black printed line.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the
blower wheel and motor, always reinstall
the filter before using the vac for dry mate-
rial pick-up.
Take the dirty filter to a disposal container
and gently brush away small dirt particles
that may be adhering to the filter material.
IMPORTANT: After cleaning, check the fil-
ter 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.
Installation
New filters may be purchased at area
Sears retail stores, Sears retail replace-
ment filters are sold by stock no. 9-16949.
NOTE: Before installing the filter on the
vac, clean the area of the lid so that the
retainer band will seal the bag against the
lid and stop small particles from bypass-
ing 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.
Replace the retainer band around the fil-
ter. Make sure the retainer band is posi-
tioned on the filter, and the filter
completely covers the filter cage. Also,
make sure the edges of the filter are com-
pletely secured under the retainer band.
NOTE: For best results of cleaning due to
accumulated dust, clean the filter in an
open area. Cleaning should be done out-
doors and not in the living quarters.
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 dust drum:
1. Dump debris out.
2. Wash dust drum thoroughly.
3. Wipe out with dry cloth.
Storage
Before storing your vac, the dust drum
should be emptied and cleaned. The cord
should be wrapped around the unit and
the hose should be stored as described in
the cord/hose storage section in this man-
ual. Accessories should be kept in the
same area as the vac so they can be
readily available. The vac should be
stored indoors.
