¼ in. nut driver

Cleaning cloths

HEPA vacuum cleaner with soft brush nozzle and crevice nozzle.

Before each use

Inspect the electrical cord for damage. Look for fraying, cuts, etc. Do not use the unit if you find any damage. Contact your local authorized distributor for service.

Inspect filter. The PHD 200 filter should be replaced when the accumulation of dust is visible.

 

Monthly

Clean pump check valve and basin. In normal use, dust can accumulate and can restrict air-flow, reducing performance and causing the unit to over-heat. Clean when dust accumulation is visible. Remove grills and cover as shown in Fig. B. Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush tool and a soft cloth to remove any debris. Take care not to damage any interior components.

To maintain appearance, wipe interior and exterior surfaces with a damp cloth. For deep cleaning and a lasting, protective shine, use an automotive interior cleaner.

 

As Needed

Clean pump check valve and basin. Remove grills and cover as shown in Fig. B. Remove screws from pump base and lift out pump. Wipe out pump basin with a damp cloth. Inspect the pump base for build-up of debris and clean if needed. Unthread barbed fitting with check valve and rinse fitting and check valve with clean water. Reinstall check valve into barbed fitting and install the barbed fitting into pump. Do not overtighten. Reinstall pump on base. Reinstall cover and grills.

Clean coils. With the cover removed, inspect both coils. If excessive dust and debris is present, vacuum thoroughly and/or clean with coil cleaner.
