MOTOR FOAM FILTER

A motor foam safety filter, located at the top of the vacuum
chamber provides protection against dirt being pulled into

accidentally be torn. This filter should be checked and cleaned
if necessary when replacement bag is installed (500VF unit

soiled, hand wash in a water and mild detergent solution, rinse
and let it dry
completely
on a flat surface before reinstalling.
