Cleaning & Changing the
HEPA Dust Cup Filter

Warning:

Always unplug the unit

from electrical outlet before opening

the Dust Cup (container).

1. To open the Dust Cup (container),

push button and detach the Dust

Cup (container ). (Fig. 2)

2. Pull out the HEPA Dust Cup Filter.

(Fig. 3)

Important:

Do NOT use the HEPA filter

cartridge without the debris screen in

place.

Warning

:

After each Use - Always

remove the Filter Debris Screen

from the HEPA Dust Cup Filter, then

vigorously “TapClean” HEPA Filter until

no more dust can be removed.
IMPORTANT, Please Note : The

“TapClean” HEPA Dust Cup Filter &

Debris Screen will stop most of the tiniest

dust particles and airborne allergens from

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.

3. Empty the dust from

the Dust Cup

(container). (Fig. 4)

4. Separate the debris

screen from the

HEPA filter cartridge

by grasping the

debris screen with

one hand and the filter frame with the

other and pull apart. (Fig. 5)

The efficiency of your air driven turbo

brush depends on the bristle brush

rotating at high speed. Strong air suction

is needed to accomplish this. In order to

ensure that maximum air suction is

maintained, please read the following

instructions:
1. Empty the dust cup frequently.

2. Always "TAPCLEAN" the HEPA dust

cup filter when emptying the dust cup

container.

3. Ensure that the rotating brush is kept

free of hair and string which may

accumulate and decrease brush

performance.

4. Keep Air Driven Turbo Brush turbine

free of dirt and foreign matter. (See

illustration below for cleaning

instructions.)
