This system uses a sealed HEPA type bag. The mass of
dirt and debris is picked up by your vacuum and depos-
ited into the bag inside your dirt canister.
Emptying your Dirt Can
To remove accumulation, follow these steps:
Remove the lid by unhooking the clamps & releasing
the latches on the top of the canister. (Fig. 1) Lift lid
straight up. (Fig. 2)
Remove the bag by sliding the rubber gasket that sur-
rounds the hole in the paper bag off the plastic inlet stem
that protrudes through the front of the canister. (Fig. 3)
Once the bag is off of the inlet stem, seal the bag by
removing the backing from the tab and cover the hole
with the flap. Press the flap so that it securely seals
over the hole (Fig. 4). This will help prevent dirt and
dust from escaping. Now, lift the paper bag from the
dirt canister and place in a suitable trash container.
Take a new bag and extend it fully (Fig. 5).

If bag breaks...
In the event of a bag breaking while in the unit, it is
necessary to lift the plate located under the bag and
clean the small screen.
The bag should be changed or cleaned when there is 3-6 inches of dirt or
anytime there is a noticeable reduction of air flow at the cleaning

tool. Initially, the dirt canister should be checked or emptied weekly until some
idea can be obtained as to how long it takes to half fill the canister under your
normal cleaning routine. All vacuum systems will function more effectively
if they are emptied frequently. Under no circumstances should you allow your
dirt canister to become more than 3/4 full before emptying.

Place bag in the canister, and slide its rubber gasket
onto the inlet stem until the rubber gasket drops into
place in the ridge that is around the inlet stem (Fig. 6).
Carefully replace the lid onto the dirt canister to
ensure that it seals properly. Not doing so could cause
a vacuum leak and reduce the cleaning efficiency of
your system. Once properly on top, secure the lid with
the latches by hooking the clip over the side of the
lid and pushing down on the lever to lock into place.
Repeat for each side.
