SECTION IV
VACUUM, CART & ACCESSORIES
(Models VA15AHFL. VA15EHFL)
The vacuum canister & wheels with the following accessories are included:
- Pre-Filter (white) - 2
- Disposable Filter - 5
- Collection Bag
- Crush Proof Vacuum Hose - 10’
- In Line Filter/Dryer (installed) (air models only)
- Operations & Maintenance Manual
The collapsible push handle should be repositioned from its packing configuration (A) to operating configuration (F) by
withdrawing 2 pins (B). Refer to the following illustration. The handle is moved to the operating position by grasping both
sides of handle at (C). The handle is locked into position when forward holes (D) align with hole in socket casting (E) and
locking pin (B) is pushed in place. The reverse procedure is required to store the handle for packing.

SECTION V
FILTERS & HOSES
FILTERS
This vacuum unit has special filters installed as shown below. The two-ply paper filter (50) contains the bulk of the debris
and protects the remaining filters from excess dirt. The white intermediate filter (32) is a very fine non-woven filter that
extends the life of the expensive High Efficiency Particulate Absolute (H.E.P.A.) filter (51).
INITIAL INSTALLATION OF FILTERS
1. Remove all items from the carton and set the vacuum unit on the edge of a table. Unsnap the hold-down clamps.
Disengage the two clamps and remove the head assembly and carefully place aside.
2. Remove the H.E.P.A. filter unit and the intermediate white filter and place aside.
3. Mount the disposable two-ply filter bag by taking hold of the free ends of the cardboard attached to the paper bag
and pulling the cardboard forward over the inlet fitting getting the cardboard as close to the wall of the canister as
possible.
4. Place the white intermediate filter in position on top of the canister. Fold the edge to the outside of the canister
overlapping approximately one inch. Insert the H.E.P.A. filter being careful not to move the intermediate filter. The
sealing gasket must sit evenly on the rim of the canister to obtain an air tight seal.
5. Replace the power head assembly on top of the H.E.P.A. filter seated in the top of the canister.
CAUTION: TO ENSURE A SNUG FIT, MAKE SURE THAT THE AREA AROUND THE LID AND TOP EDGE OF THE
VINYL SEALING GASKET IS FREE OF DIRT AND OTHER FOREIGN MATTER.

FILTER CHANGE REQUIREMENTS
Whenever the two-ply paper bag becomes filled, it should be replaced. Excessive over filling of this bag makes it difficult to
remove and can result in breakage and spills. The intermediate white filter should be replaced with every fifth change of the
two-ply paper bag or whenever there is damage or visible collection of debris on the outside of the filter. Follow the
procedures for removing and replacing filter as outlined in Section 4 of this manual: Routine Maintenance.
HOSE ATTACHMENTS
The vacuum hose and swivel connector are factory pre-assembled. The swivel connector (48) is inserted into the inlet
fitting on the stainless steel can (35) and twisted clockwise until the connector snaps in place (rivets rest against the slot
and on hose connector).
The vacuum hose is attached to the tool by sliding the vacuum hose cuff end firmly onto the tool vacuum take off tube.
The VSE is powered by a single compressed air line attached to the ball valve inlet (3). The tool operating compressed
air is taken off at the “T” fitting (2). See Specifications - Section 7 for minimum air requirement.
STANDARD ITEMS INCLUDED
The following items are shipped with each VSE Vacuum:
- Pre filters (2)
- Disposable filter (5)
- Collection bags
- Crush proof vacuum hose (1 1/2” Dia.), 6’ long
- In line filter/dryer (installed) (air models only)

SECTION VI
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Very little maintenance is required on the VSE. The following outlines the routine maintenance required.
Loss of Vacuum
If system vacuum is lost as indicated on the vacuum gauge, check the following:
- Check hose for damage or internal blockage
- Check for adequate air supply
- Check the canister for dents along the rim which may prevent a positive seal
- Check to insure the intermediate or pre-filter is clean and free from dirt and dust
Replacement of Loaded Paper Filter Bags
- Remove the power head assembly, H.E.P.A. filter, and white intermediate filter
- Push cardboard tab on filter bag off the air inlet tube
- When the paper filter bag is full, remove by turning canister on its side to facilitate removal. Remove paper backing
from sealing flap located over cardboard collar. Press sealing flap firmly over the opening to prevent leakage of
recovered material.
- Dispose of the filled filter bag into the plastic container bag. Tie off bag to insure no spillage occurs. The plastic
bags have storage capacity of 5 filter bags.
Replacement of the Pre-Filter (White)
- Under normal conditions the pre-filter is changed after every fifth paper filter bag is replaced or whenever there is
damage to the pre-filter or a visible collection of debris on the outside of the filter.
- Prior to removing the pre-filter, wipe down all exposed surfaces on the underside of the removed lid (tower head)
using a dampened cloth.
- Remove the pre-filter from the H.E.P.A. filter and be careful not to damage or puncture the paper media used in
this unit. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE PRE- FILTER IN ANY WAY. DISPOSE OF IN THE SAME
MANNER AS DESCRIBED IN THE PRECEDING SECTION.
- Prior to any further cleaning of the canister, place a new pre-filter onto the H.E.P.A. filter. Replace the filters into
the canister, then replace the air Venturi head and clamp in place by engaging the clamp assemblies.
CLEANING AND INSPECTION
Always wear an OSHA approved face mask for use with asbestos and other hazardous materials every time you are using
this vacuum recovery system. You should also wear suitable gloves and protective clothing.
- Disconnect the vacuum unit from the compressed air supply.
- Carefully and slowly remove only the lid and set the lid and filter aside.
- Using a damp cloth, wipe down all of the exposed surfaces inside of the canister. Put the cloth aside. DO NOT
DISCARD CLOTH.
- Carefully and very slowly, push the paper filter bag down and off the intake tube, using the attached cardboard
collar. Remove the paper backing from the sealing flap located over the cardboard collar. (Note: If the filter bag
does not have sealing flap use adhesive tape). Press the sealing flap firmly over the opening to prevent spill-back
of the recovered material. After the collar is removed from the intake tube, take the damp cloth and wipe off any
surfaces that were not previously wiped. At this time, re-wipe the entire inside of the canister and drop the wiping
cloth into the OSHA approved poly bag.
CAUTION: HAZARDOUS MATERIALS MUST BE DISPOSED OF PROPERLY. NEVER THROW CONTAMINATED
DEBRIS IN WITH YOU USUAL TRASH RECEPTACLE. PLACE DEBRIS IN A 6 MIL POLY BAG OR A CAN MARKED
WITH A “HAZARDOUS MATERIALS” WARNING AND DISPOSE IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR LOCAL
HAZARDOUS WASTE REGULATIONS.
