regularly for best performance. ONLY USE THE CARTIDGE FILTER
FOR DRY VACUUMING. If the machine is used without a cartridge filter, the motor will be damaged. If the

is necessary when picking up dry material. Handle the filter carefully when removing
it for cleaning and when replacing it. Check the filter for tears or small holes. A small hole can let particles

cartridge filter and may damage the motor and / or clog the filter.
