Dale, It is a contractor series shop vac. It has a fairly large, expensive, bag that wraps around the inside. The input port is sealed to the bag. This bag is the dirt collector and the primary filter. Then there is the accordion type center filter and finally another filter at the exhaust. The machine was $100. It is the most powerful vac I have ever used. I like the fact that no dust escapes but the price of the bags is a little ridiculous. For wet pickup you remove both the bag and the accordion filter. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dale Leavens" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, June 06, 2008 10:20 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] spontaneous combustion
What!! Goodness! what sort of machine is that? You could hire someone to clean up after you for less. ----- Original Message ----- From: Lenny McHugh To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, June 06, 2008 9:09 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] spontaneous combustion I can't empty. I must replace the bag for about $18. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dale Leavens" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, June 06, 2008 7:35 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] spontaneous combustion Probably not however if it worries you then empty the darn thing for crying out Christmas!! ----- Original Message ----- From: Lenny McHugh To: handyman-blind Sent: Friday, June 06, 2008 11:23 AM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] spontaneous combustion Do I have to worry about spontaneous combustion. Earlier this morning my wife dropped a glass when placing it into the dishwasher. That glass literally exploded. There was glass all over the kitchen floor and inside the dishwasher. To help clean up the mess I used my shop vac. This unit has a large bag collector that functions as the first filter. The bag has a lot of saw and sanding dust. When she vacuumed the glass out of the dishwasher the powerful vac pulled water out of the drain. I know that wet saw dust can become pretty hot. Is there anything I must be afraid of? ---------------------------------------------------------- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG.
