Maintenance
Motor
Please note that Simplicity motors do not require lubrication. Each motor contains
two carbon brushes which will wear normally, and may eventually require
replacement. For warranty purposes, this should be done by an authorized service
center. Brush life is affected by the number of hours used, frequency of start-ups
and shut-downs, humidity, altitude, and temperature. In order to avoid damage
to the motor itself, brushes should be replaced before they are completely worn
out. We therefore recommend that you have your unit and motors inspected by a
service center every 5-6 years.
Changing the HiFlow HEPA Bag
(B2, BF4, BF6 and BF10 Models)
Change the bag when the one in place is
two-thirds full. Frequency will depend on the
use of the unit.The maintenance suggestion
module will indicate when to change the
bag. These indications are provided by an
electronic timing board, only as a reference
guide (see page 13).
1. To access the bag, unlatch the two clips
and remove the dust receptacle.
2. Remove the used bag and seal bag
opening (adhesive seal provided on each
bag). Discard used bag.
3. Install the new bag, ensuring the tabs on
the bag adaptor are aligned with the slots
in the bag collar.
4. Ensure adequate sealing by inserting bag
as far as the retention ring.
5. Replace dust receptacle and seal by
latching both clips.
Use only genuine Simplicity HiFlow HEPA
replacement bags. Failure to do so could void
the warranty on our vacuum unit.
