The filters included are made of high quality materials designed to stop small dust
particles. The cloth filter should be used for dry pick-up only. A dry cloth filter is necessary to pick
up dust. If the cloth filter is wet, it will clog quickly and be very difficult to clean. Handle the filter
carefully when removing it for cleaning and replacing it. Check the filters for tears or small holes,
a small hole can let dust pass through and out of the cleaner. Do not use a filter with holes or
tears, replace it immediately.
