🚨 THIS is why you should ALWAYS PRE-VACUUM your jobs!
Take a look at what can build up in the vacuum protection filter on a Sapphire Scientific truckmount. 😳
Pre-vacuuming properly helps remove dry soil, hair, fibres and debris before you start extracting — meaning less of it ends up travelling through your hoses and into your truckmount.
Your vacuum protection filter is there to help protect the vacuum system by catching debris before it can travel further into the machine — but it shouldn’t have to do all the work!
Regularly checking and cleaning your vacuum protection filter can help:
🔧 Protect your vacuum system
💨 Maintain strong airflow and suction
🛡️ Reduce unnecessary wear on components
⚙️ Keep your truckmount performing at its best
💰 Help avoid preventable repairs and downtime
The takeaway? PRE-VACUUM your jobs AND check your filters regularly! 👍
