All you have to do is open it up and take the paper filter off and then it's a wet vac. If it has a foam over filter you leave that on

Can u wash the paper filter on a wet dry vac

You really cannot wash the paper filter. You can blow it out with an air hose if you have access to one, or vacuum it off with another vacuum. If it does get wet you should let it dry outside of the vacuum before you use it again.

I am unable to take old filter off my Ridgid portable 4 gallon vac.

You press in the black cap in the middle of the filter while you pull up on the black "handles" around the edge of the filter. It just pops off.

Ridgid 16.5 gallon motor running with no suction

When you use the shop vac for cleaning up water you must remove the filter.

The filter is for dust particles not for water
I would replace your filter and dump the water out from the shop vac, Also after each time you vacuum up water dump it out of shop vac.

I hope this helped you happy new year!
