Due to raw materials that are normally used in our production of the 3-Layer Fine Dust filter component (VF3500)
being redirected for PPE mask manufacturing support, we are unable to provide the filter previously included
with this product.
We are temporarily replacing the 3-Layer Filter (VF3500) component. We are providing you with a 1-Layer
Filter (VF3400) component and a dust collection bag. Please note the dust collection bag was not typically
included with this product purchase.
This dust bag lets you clean up small, dry debris such as drywall dust, and is an excellent containment solution
for many fine dust messes. See dust bag for installation and removal instructions and discard the bag once full.
Replacements can be purchased as VF3501.
The material used in our vacuum filters and bags is intended only to protect the vacuum and the end-users
of our products from particles or debris under operation conditions listed in the product’s instruction manual.

Dust Collection Bag Installation Instructions
Clean Drum vs. Dirty Drum
Easy to Install
Easy to Dispose
1 - Simply spread the bag out around the inside of the drum.
2 - Push cardboard collar onto drum inlet and behind rib(s) so that cardboard is flush
against inside of drum.
3 - Replace power head with filter attached ensuring the dust bag sits surrounding the filter.
This ensures you will get the most debris inside of the dust bag and the cardboard collar of
the dust bag stays in place.
