To install a new filter you must first
determine which filter attachment system
is used on your vac.
The filter cage has a stud on the end with
either screw threads to receive a filter
nut, or the Qwik Lock™ ball end which
will allow the filter to snap into place
without a filter nut or other attachment
hardware.
The stud type will determine which of the
following sets of instructions should be
used.
IMPORTANT:
To avoid damage to the
blower wheel, always reinstall the filter
before using the vac for dry material
pick-up.
Filter Removal and Installation
WARNING: Do not operate
without filter cage and float, as they
prevent liquid from entering the
impeller and damaging the motor.
