Cleaning Canister
Filter
This dust collector uses an automatic filter
brush to remove dust buildup and debris from
the filter pleats. The system will turn ON for
approximately 90 seconds after the machine is
turned OFF to clean the canister filter and knock
dust cake into the end cap.
If operating pressure on pressure gauge drops
below 200mmAq, the canister filter must be
cleaned. If operating pressure reaches 150mmAq
and cleaning does not improve performance,
replace the filter (refer to Removing/Replacing
Canister Filter on Page 37).
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT use water or high pressure
to clean canister filter. Doing so will damage the
filter and reduce filtration.
