CLEANING OR REPLACING THE CANISTER FILTERS 

(MODEL 10-510CF)

Turn the switch to the “OFF” position and unplug the unit from the power source before cleaning or 

replacing canister filters or before performing any maintenance.

After a period of time depending on the frequency of use, the canister filter may become clogged and affect air-
flow as well the overall efficiency of the unit. Should you notice a drop in the efficiency or performance of the unit, 
it may be a sign that it is time to clean the filters.
If so, proceed as follows:

 

1.  Turn off and unplug the machine.

2.  For basic cleaning, simply rotate the handle of the  

 

canisters several rotations,

dle, unclip the belt clamps and remove the canisters  

 

from the machine and place them on the ground  

 

upside down.

remaining dust from inside.
