SUCTION OF DRY DUST AND DIRT

The cloth filter that came with your FEIN Turbo II will contain extracted dust 5.0
microns in size and larger . If picking up fine dust, you will need to use a pleated filter
cartridge and paper bag, which can be purchased as a (FBK) kit or a (FBK-HEPA)
kit for hazardous dust vacuuming. (see page 6 for kit contents).

a) T o install the optional filter cartridge G place the
turn screw I inside the flange K . Place the filter
cartridge on the float cage then put the flange assem­bly on the bottom of the filter. Turn the screw quarter
turn to lock the filter on.

b) In order to remove the filter cartridge turn the
screw I quarter turn counterclockwise and pull out
the filter cartridge.

Do not use vacuum without a filter. Use the cloth
filter that came with your vacuum, or a pleated
filter. Do not use both at the same time. Failure to
use a filter when dry vacuum cleaning will damage
the motor. NEVER USE VACUUM CLEANER
WITH A WET FILTER CARTRIDGE FOR DRY
V ACUUM CLEANING. It quickly becomes clogged
and unusable.

c) Fix the optional paper dust bag H to the inner
side of the tube-connection in the receptacle: fig.c.
and d. When using this paper dust bag the dirt can
be removed more hygienically and the life of the filter
cartridge will be increased. The paper dust bag H
should be used with the filter cartridge; it should
NEVER be used by itself or with the cloth filter.
