SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE
For optimum performance from this machine, this
maintenance schedule must be strictly followed.
Ongoing
To minimize your risk of injury and maintain proper
machine operation, shut down the machine imme-
diately if you ever observe any of the items below,
and fix the problem before continuing operations:
•
Loose mounting bolts.
•
Damaged filter canister, cleaning paddle
components, or collection bag.
•
Worn or damaged wires.
•
Suction leaks or dust blowing out of collector.
•
Any other unsafe condition.
Monthly Check
•
Clean/vacuum dust buildup off machine body
and motor.
Schedule
To reduce risk of shock or
accidental startup, always
disconnect machine from
power before adjustments,
maintenance, or service.
This dust collector uses a filter cleaning handle
to remove dust buildup and debris from the filter
pleats and extend the life of the filter. Clean the
filter with the filter cleaning handle after each use,
or whenever dust collection performance drops.
Eventually, dust will become fully embedded in
the filter pleats, and the filter assembly will have to
be replaced. If you reach the point where cleaning
the filter does not improve performance, then it is
time to replace the filter.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use water or high pres-
sure to clean canister filter. Doing so will damage
the filter and reduce filtration.
Cleaning
Canister Filter
