Vacuuming Dry Materials
1.The filter must always be in correct
position to reduce the risk of leaks and
possible damage to vac. It is very
important to assemble the filter to the
cage without allowing any possible
leaks or tears. Any leaks will allow
the picked up media to be blown out
of the blower port and back into the
surrounding environment.
2. When using your vac to pick up very fine
dust, it will be necessary for you to
empty the dust drum and clean or
replace the filter at more frequent
intervals to maintain peak vac
performance.
NOTE: A dry filter is necessary to pick up
dry material. If you use your vac to pick up
dust when the filter is wet, the filter will
clog quickly and be very difficult to clean.In
case the filter gets wet, replace it before
continuing to do dry pickups.
