Maintenance
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
injury from accidental starting,
unplug power cord before changing
or cleaning filter.
WD1850 Contractor Wet/Dry Vac is
supplied with RIDGID’s best Two-Stage
Fine Dust Filter. Replacement Two Stage-
Fine Dust Filters are available where you
purchased your vac. Ask for the RIDGID
Two-Stage-Fine Dust Filter VF5000.
NOTE: The filter is made of high quality
paper designed to stop very small
particles of dust. The filter can be used for
wet or dry pick up. Handle the filter
carefully when removing to clean or
installing it. Creases in the filter pleats may
occur from installation but not affect the
performance of the filter.
Removal
To remove the filter for cleaning or
replacement, unscrew the filter nut from
the filter cage, remove filter plate and lift
off filter.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the
blower wheel and motor, always reinstall
the filter before using the vac for dry
material pick-up.
Dry Filter
NOTE: For best cleaning results due to
accumulated dust, clean the filter in an
open area. Cleaning SHOULD be done
outdoors and not in the living quarters.
1. Remove filter from vac. Gently tap filter
against the inside wall of your dust
drum. The debris will loosen and fall.
2. For thorough cleaning of dry filter with
fine dust (no debris), run water through
it as described under "Wet Filter".
Wet Filter
After filter is removed, run water through the
filter from a hose or spigot. Take care that
water pressure from the hose is not strong
enough to damage filter. Remember: To dry
a filter quickly, reinstall the filter on the vac
and allow the unit to run for approximately
10 minutes. The clean air rushing through
the filter will dry it.
IMPORTANT: After cleaning, check the filter
for tears or small holes. Do not use a filter
with holes or tears in it. Even a small hole can
cause a lot of dust to come out of your vac.
IMPORTANT: Replace it immediately.
Installation
Refer to "Replacement Filter Assembly"
Section of this manual.
Allow the filter to dry before reinstalling
and storing the vac.
Wet/Dry Vac
To keep your Wet/Dry Vac looking its best,
clean the outside with a cloth dampened
with warm water and mild soap.
To clean the drum:
1. Dump out debris.
2. Wash drum thoroughly.
3. Wipe out with dry cloth.
Casters and Wheels
Should your cart squeak or become hard
to roll, you should place two or three drops
of general purpose oil on each wheel at
the axle. If your casters are noisy, you may
put a drop of oil on the roller shaft to make
them quieter.
Frame and Handles
Your metal handle is painted to prevent
rust, however, liquids and corrosive debris
should be wiped off with a soft cloth should
they come in contact with the handle.
WARNING: Do not remove the filter
cage. It is there to help prevent your
fingers from getting into the blower
wheel.
