. Both the electrostatic filter and the three-pocket
inner filter should be replaced once a year. The
electrostatic filter should be cleaned once a month
or more often depending on use. When there is a
h
eavy build up of dust on the electrostatic filter,
it should be cleaned. The three-pocket inner filter
cannot be cleaned. If either filter is torn, bent or
damaged in any way, it should be replaced immed-
iately.
The electrostatic filter can be cleaned in one of
three methods. Method one is using a shop-vac to
remove the dust. Method two is using compressed
air to blow the dust out of the filter. Method three is
to wash with soap and water.
Compressed air can be dangerous. For operator
safety, DO NOT exceed an air pressure of 30 PSI or
point air nozzle toward anyone or aim nozzle at
your own body. Always wear safety glasses and
dust mask when performing this procedure.
LUBRICATION
The Air Cleaner has sealed lubricated bearings in the
motor housing that do not require any additional lubrica-
tion from the operator.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE FLAMMABLE MATERIALS
to clean Air Cleaner.
Repairs to the Air Cleaner should be performed by
trained personnel only.
Contact your nearest Steel City
Authorized Service Center for authorized service.
Unauthorized repairs or replacement with non-factory
parts could cause serious injury to the operator and
damage to the Air Cleaner.
