Cleaning Performance
Vacmaster vacuum cleaners are tested for endurance. If your motor is operating, then the most
likely cause for a loss in suction is a blockage or an opening in the vacuum.
To maintain a high cleaning performance from your machine, it is important to replace or clean
cartridge filters as necessary. Replace full dust bags to prevent performance drops. A performance
drop with clean filters can only be caused by a blockage in the tools or the hose.
