Fig. 13
IMPORTANT, Please Note : The
“TapClean” Rinseable HEPA Dust Cup
Filter & Debris Screen will stop most of
the tiniest dust particles re-entering the
air you breathe. In fact it stops 99.97% of
all particles as small as 0.3 microns -
many times smaller than a human hair!!!
Because of this incredible filtration
performance, the HEPA Dust Cup Filter
will quickly accumulate, inside the white
filter folds, many fine dust particles that
are difficult to see but which will
eventually block or reduce your suction
power - if not cleaned properly. Clean the
HEPA Filter and Debris Screen after
each use as described in this section.
