REPLACING SECONDARY FILTER
The secondary filter protects the motor from dust and dirt. Before
installing a new filter bag, check the filter. Accumulated dirt in the
dust compartment will be collected on this filter and may restrict
motor performance when the filter becomes dirty.
1. Remove filter bag to access the secondary filter.
2. Remove secondary filter from bottom of dust compartment
[Fig. 12].
3. The secondary filter can be washed or replaced. If washed,
make sure filter is completely dry before reinstalling.
4. Reinstall by sliding filter under bag support fingers [Fig.
13].
REPLACING POST FILTER
Your Riccar ® Vacuum Cleaner is equipped with an auxiliary post
filter to capture fine dust particles and purify the air before it
exits the machine. It is important to change the post filter regularly
– approximately every third filter bag change, or as needed.
1. Remove dust cover and locate the post filter on inner bottom
of cover [Fig. 14].
2. Remove soiled filter.
3. Align slits in new filter over tabs and press securely into
place.
NOTE: Post filters cannot be washed.
