To pick up dust and dry material, you must install foam sleeve and reusable 

dry filter or disposable filter bag to ensure proper filtration. If the vacuum 

has been used to pick up liquids, the foam sleeve must be cleaned and 

dried before installing for dry pick up.  With tank cover in an upside down 

position, slide foam sleeve down over lid cage pulling until foam sleeve 

completely covers lid cage 

(Figure 1, 2)

.  Center the reusable dry filter 

(not 

standard on all models)

 on lid cage 

(Figure 3)

, slide mounting ring down 

over filter until ring is positioned against the ribs of the lid cage 

(Figure 4)

.  

The reusable dry filter should always be in position over the foam sleeve 

for dry pick up. To remove the filter for cleaning, remove mounting ring and 

filter from lid cage 

(Figure 5)

.  To clean the reusable dry filter, shake off 

excess dirt and dust or (depending on the condition of the filter) rinse with 

water. Allow the filter to dry completely and reinstall. 

NOTE:  ENSURE THAT THE MOUNTING RING IS COMPLETELY SECURE AND IN POSITION BY PRESSING DOWN FIRMLY AROUND THE RING IN 

SEVERAL PLACES. BE SURE THE REUSABLE DRY DISC FILTER COMPLETELY COVERS THE FOAM SLEEVE. CHECK TO ENSURE THAT ALL EDGES OF 

THE REUSABLE DRY FILTER ARE SECURE UNDER THE MOUNTING RING.

     CAUTION - 

KEEP FILTER CLEAN.

Efficiency of the vacuum is largely dependent on the filters. Dirty filters will reduce the air flow and efficiency of the filtration system.

DO NOT MACHINE WASH OR DRY.

DOUBLE INSULATION

Do not operate if cord, plug or appliance is damaged. In your double insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of
grounding. No grounding means is provided nor should a means for grounding be added to the appliance.

NOTE:

 If power cord needs to be replaced, use only a Shop-Vac Service Agent.

EXTENSION CORDS

NOTE:

 STATIC SHOCKS ARE COMMON IN DRY AREAS OR WHEN THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY OF THE AIR IS LOW. THIS IS ONLY TEMPORARY AND 

           DOES NOT AFFECT THE USE OF THE APPLIANCE. TO REDUCE THE FREQUENCY OF STATIC SHOCKS IN YOUR HOME, THE BEST REMEDY
           IS TO ADD MOISTURE TO THE AIR WITH A CONSOLE OR INSTALLED HUMIDIFIER.

Use only a cord extension set that complies with AS3199. Conductor size must be 1.0mm

2

 for length up to 25 metres and 1.5mm

 for length

from 25 - 32 metres.
