What the Exhaust Filter does
On the CM-WAV the exhaust filter sits after the motor in the airflow and captures the finest particles before the air exits the machine. It protects indoor air quality on commercial routes and keeps fine grit from settling around the exhaust. Like all filters it is a wear item — it loads up with dust over time and must be renewed on a schedule to keep both filtration and airflow where they should be.
Signs the Exhaust Filter needs replacing
Replace the exhaust filter when it looks grey and loaded, when a dusty smell returns to the exhaust, or on the regular maintenance interval for a machine in daily service. A clogged exhaust filter also restricts airflow, so if suction is weak and the intake filter and bag are clean, a packed exhaust filter is a likely cause. Never run the machine with the exhaust filter missing.
Installation and fit
Open the exhaust cover, lift out the old filter, and seat the new 19855 filter fully so its edges sit flush in the housing with no gaps for air to bypass. Close the cover so it clamps the filter lightly in place. Twin City Vacuum has sold and serviced CleanMax equipment since 1956, and every part is sourced directly from Tacony.
