filtration system. The information presented below outlines basic
maintenance procedures to ensure the ARBE Model #MD-205 unit will

GENERAL FILTER MAINTENANCE:
Polishing dust is accumulated onto the surface of the fiberglass filter located
inside the dust collector. Fiberglass filter can be easily changed by removing
the top cover of the unit.
It is very difficult to pre-determine a specific maintenance schedule, as the
rate of dust loading will vary for each person. To ensure maximum suction
throughout life of unit, Arbe Machine recommends the fiberglass filter be
changed once a month. Only Arbe Machine filters should be used when
changing filters to ensure safety and efficiency of unit.
