Before commissioning, remove top filter housing cover and check to ensure all
bags are firmly secured to the lower filter bag plate. The top of the bags are
attached to the shaker rack using 5/16
”
nuts at the top of the filter housing. The
shaker rack is secured in place by use of bungee cords and the bags must not be
loose or out of place.
NOTE: A loose or unsecured bag will allow product to pass
through the filter separator and will plug the bag house outlet.
The
elongated
bags should be shaken at least daily
, preferably after each
use
.
To shake bags, simply shut off the vacuum and shake the filter
assembly arm swiftly back and forth. This rapid movement will dislodge
particles on the inside of the
elongated
bag surfaces and drop them into the
dust can.
NOTE: The unit must be OFF in order to shake the filters.
If the filters are to be replaced, please replace them ALL at once, or they will be a
constant source of frustration.

Bag Maintenance
The following is a recommended program of preventative maintenance:
1.
Check that the filters are seated properly and that they do not appear
to be leaking WEEKLY.
There should be NO appreciable or
visible dust inside the filter housing.
2.
Replace ALL the filters if wear points or holes are noticed.
3.
If the secondary filter cartridge becomes plugged, check for holes or
leakage in the primary filter bags, or upgrade the primary filter
material to a more efficient type.
4.
Replace the secondary filter cartridge when it becomes dirty.
