Check bag indicator
The indicator (K) will begin to show
red as the filter bag fills with dirt.
There are three conditions that will
cause the indicator to become com-
pletely red:
1. If the bag is full; change the bag.
2. If very fine materials have been
picked up, clogging the bag pores;
change the bag.
3. If there is a blockage in the nozzle,
hose, tools or at the bag opening;
remove the blockage (see “Clearing
blockages” section).
