4. Installation
Follow these steps to install the HEPA filter into your compatible Scheppach NTS30 or NTS30 Premium wet/dry vacuum cleaner. Always refer to your vacuum cleaner's specific instruction manual for detailed diagrams and safety precautions.
- Disconnect Power: Ensure the vacuum cleaner is unplugged from the electrical outlet before beginning installation.
- Open Vacuum Cleaner: Release the clips or latches on the vacuum cleaner head and carefully lift it off the collection tank.
- Remove Old Filter (if applicable): If an old filter is present, carefully remove it. Dispose of used filters responsibly.
- Position New Filter: Place the new Scheppach HEPA Filter onto the filter cage or motor housing inside the vacuum cleaner head. Ensure it sits flush and securely. The rubber seal at the top of the filter should create a tight seal.
- Secure Filter: Depending on your vacuum model, there might be a locking mechanism (e.g., a nut or a twist-lock) to secure the filter in place. Ensure it is tightened sufficiently to prevent air leaks.
- Reassemble Vacuum Cleaner: Carefully place the vacuum cleaner head back onto the collection tank and secure the clips or latches.
- Verify Installation: Before plugging in, visually inspect that the filter is correctly installed and the vacuum cleaner is properly reassembled.

5. Operation
The Scheppach HEPA Filter is designed for dry vacuuming applications. Once correctly installed, it effectively captures fine dust particles, allergens, and other debris, ensuring cleaner exhaust air. For wet vacuuming, this HEPA filter must be removed, and a foam filter (typically supplied with the vacuum cleaner) should be installed instead, as per your vacuum cleaner's manual.
6. Maintenance
6.1. Cleaning the Filter
Regular cleaning helps maintain the filter's efficiency and extends its lifespan. Always disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the power supply before cleaning.
- Dry Cleaning: Gently tap the filter against a hard surface (e.g., inside a trash can) to dislodge accumulated dust. You can also use a soft brush or compressed air (from a safe distance) to clean the pleats.
- Avoid Water: Do not wash this HEPA filter with water, as it can damage the filter media and reduce its effectiveness.
- Frequency: Clean the filter after each significant dry vacuuming session or when you notice a decrease in suction power.
6.2. Replacing the Filter
Over time, even with regular cleaning, the filter's efficiency will diminish. Replace the HEPA filter when:
- Suction power remains low despite cleaning.
- Dust or fine particles are visibly escaping from the vacuum's exhaust.
- The filter media appears damaged, torn, or excessively clogged.
- As a general guideline, replace the filter every 6-12 months with regular use, or more frequently if used in dusty environments.
Use only genuine Scheppach replacement filters (Model 7907709719) to ensure optimal performance and compatibility.
7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Reduced suction power | Clogged filter | Clean or replace the HEPA filter. Check other components of the vacuum cleaner (hose, nozzle, tank) for blockages. |
| Dust escaping from exhaust | Damaged or improperly installed filter | Ensure the filter is correctly seated and sealed. Inspect the filter for tears or damage; replace if necessary. |
| Filter does not fit | Incorrect filter model | Verify that you have the correct Scheppach HEPA Filter 30L (Model 7907709719) for your NTS30 or NTS30 Premium vacuum cleaner. |
