VACUUM MAINTENANCE
Changing the Filter Bag - Figures 17 & 18
To change the filter bag, set the canister upright, open the filter bag
cover (8) by pulling the cover release flap (10) upward (figure 17).
Seal the filter bag with the sealing cap (42). Grasp the sealing plate
(44) of the filter bag with your thumb and forefinger as shown in fig-
ure 18 and lift the filter bag (43) out. Lower a new bag into the hold-
er, making sure that the 4 small tabs (indicated by arrows on the
sealing plate) fit into the appropriate grooves. The front tab (45) of
the sealing plate will fit loosely over the wire latch lock. Push the
filter bag cover (8) down firmly and snap the cover release flap (10)
into place. For your convenience, there is a diagram on every filter
bag showing the correct placement of the bag. Do not re-use the
filter bags.
NOTE:
The nature of the contents of the filter bag will
affect the point at which it needs changing. Fine dust may require
an earlier change even though the bag is not full. Fluff or hair allows
air to pass through easily, so the filter bag may overfill before the
orange “bag full” indicator displays.
Changing the Exhaust Filter - Figures 19 & 20
The exhaust filter (12) needs to be changed when it becomes
extremely dirty or clogged with dust, or after approximately 15 to
20 filter bags have been used. To remove the exhaust filter, set the
vacuum upright, and remove the filter retaining rings (13). To
release the filter retaining ring, use your thumb to push the retain-
ing ring clip the direction of the arrow, then pull the clip up. Pull the
plastic reinforced fabric strips out of the housing slot (48), and
remove the filter. To replace the filter, insert the plastic strip on one
end of the filter into the housing slot (48) and hold in place with one
hand while wrapping the filter around the machine, pulling it
taught. While holding the filter together, insert the top of the plas-
tic strip into the slot. While holding the top of the strip in place,
push the rest of the strip firmly into the slot. Replace the retaining
rings.
NOTE:
When reassembling, please ensure that the exhaust
filter is fitted correctly in the housing slots and the filter retaining
rings are installed correctly. Otherwise, the filter will be ineffec-
tive.

Figure 19
After 10 to 20 bags have been used, change the motor protec-
tion/carbon filter (46). To remove the filter, set the vacuum upright,
pull the cover release flap (10) outward and open the filter bag
cover (8). Remove the filter bag (see above). Grasp the handle (47)
on the filter and pull it out. To replace, use the handle (47) to hold
on to and slide the new filter down into the bottom of the filter bag
housing. When correctly seated, it will snap into place. Insert the
filter bag, close the filter bag cover.

When the “bag full” indicator (7) displays, airflow is reduced due to
a full filter bag, dirty filters, or a clog. If the filter bag is empty and
the filters are clean, you may have a clog. Refer to page 12.
