Filter removal and installation
Disconnect power and lock out any electrical power sources before servicing.
CAUTION: Dirty Panel Pak cartridges may be heavy, use caution when
removing the cartridges from the dust collector. Removing the filters can be a two
person job.
Do not operate the dust collector with missing or damaged cartridges.
The working area requires good ventilation. Some applications involve
hazardous gasses and dusts. Check with an authorized person before work
commences to avoid exposure to hazardous substances. Appropriate PPE should be
considered and worn.
In order to minimize escape of dust particles which have been deposited in
the Panel Pak cartridges, it is recommended the used cartridges are placed into
polythene sacks as they are withdrawn from the unit for ultimate safe disposal.
Replace the Panel Pak cartridges on the top row first, making your way down
the collector. This will help dust from bypassing into the clean air plenum and reduce
dust collecting on new cartridges.
