Operation 

The GMC 8 litre vacuum/dust extraction system comes 

assembled and ready for use. 
The filter must always be in the correct position to reduce 

the risk of leaks and possible damage to the vacuum. 

Ensure that the filter is completely covering the filter cage 

and that the filter bag clip (6b) is as close to the lid as 

possible. Ensure there are no gaps between the filter and 

the lid. 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 debris to be blown out of the blower port 

and back into the surrounding environment.
 When using your vacuum 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 

vacuum performance.
