OPERATION (continued)
Choosing the Correct Filter
There are a variety of Filters available for
WORKSHOP
®
Wet/Dry Vacuums.
The Filters you choose should depend
upon the task you are performing.
Not all available Filters are included with
each model, but they may be purchased
from retailers carrying WORKSHOP
Wet/Dry Vacuums or from
www.WORKSHOPvacs.com.
The available Filters include:
1.
Pleated Paper Cartridge Filters

Cartridge Filters include catalog
numbers WS21200F (Everyday Dirt),

b.Each of these Pleated Paper
Cartridge Filters are intended for
cleaning up dry debris, however, a
small amount of liquid can be picked
up without damaging the Filter.

up larger amounts of liquid, the
Pleated Paper Cartridge Filter will
become saturated, misting may
appear in the vacuum’s exhaust, and
the Filter may be damaged. After
using the Vac to pick up small
amounts of liquid, the Pleated Paper
Cartridge Filter must be dried to
avoid mildew and damage.

very fine dust, it will be necessary for
you to empty the drum and clean the
Filter at more frequent intervals to
maintain peak vacuum performance.
