HEPA Filter
WARNING:
The filters must always be in place
while vacuuming.
HEPA Filter Care
The HEPA filters included with this dust extractor are long
life filters. To be effective in minimizing dust recirculation,
especially in lead paint (EPA RRP Rule) applications, the
filters MUST be installed correctly and be in good condition.
Automatic Filter Cleaning System
This dust extractor has a highly effective filter cleaning
system which minimizes filter clogging. Every 20 seconds,
both filters gets automatically cleaned. The cleaning process
alternates between the filters and continues through the life
of the unit.
nOTE:
It is normal to hear a clicking sound during
this process.
nOTE:
After extended operation, the automatic filter
cleaning system may not be effective. When this happens,
the tank should be emptied and the filters may need to be
cleaned or replaced.

4. Inspect filters for wear, tears or other damage.
nOTE:
If there is any doubt on the condition of the
filters, they MUST be replaced. DO NOT continue use if
filters are damaged.
WARNING:
Never use compressed air or a brush to
clean filters, otherwise damage to the filter membrane
will occur which will allow dust to pass through the
filter. If needed, rinse with room temperature water
and let air dry. Cleaning of the filters is typically
unnecessary. Even if the filter is covered with dust,
the automatic filter cleaning system will maintain
maximum performance and continue to function. If
visual damage to the filter membrane exists, replace
filters. Filters typically last between six and twelve
months, depending on use and care.
