OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
Exhaust filter
The exhaust filter is an easy-access, washable and reusable
filter located on the lower front of the cleaner. For average
use of the vacuum, remove and clean the exhaust filter every
3 months. The filter can be washed using cold water and no
detergent. Lay flat to dry. Replace once a year.
1. Remove the foam filter exhaust cover using the latch at the
top. Remove filter, clean and replace (figure 6).
2. Reinstall the filter into exhaust cover and reattach cover to
front of cleaner.
Always unplug machine before
cleaning, or making any
adjustments or repairs.
The backpack vacuum has four levels of filtration: The paper
bag, a micro cloth bag, a pre-motor filter and an exhaust filter.
These bags and filters are designed to capture fine particles
and protect the motor from dirt. It is important to replace the
paper bag when it is no more than ½ full and to clean the filters
on a regular schedule. Replace filters every 6 months or as you
see performance decline.
Paper Vacuum Bag
1. Remove paper bag. Insert a new paper bag into the micro
cloth bag, making sure the cardboard disk is centered on the
flexible sealing ring (figure 1).
2. Replace the lid. Fasten the latches and replace hose (figure 2
& 3).
Micro cloth bag
After each use, the micro cloth bag should be inspected. Wash
the micro cloth bag every 6 months using cold water and no
detergent. Line dry.
3. Remove the micro cloth bag, clean and replace (figure 4).
4. Replace paper vacuum bag and lid. Fasten latches and
replace hose.
Pre-motor filter
The pre-motor filter is located under the housing assembly
(figure 5). Access the filter by removing the housing assembly.
The filter can be removed by rotating counter-clockwise 45
degrees.
It is recommended that the filter be replaced every 6 months.
