Maintenance
How to maintain
The instructions given in this booklet serve as a guide to routine maintenance. To avoid unnecessary
service calls, check the hose, bag and filter often. Clear a clogged
full, and clean the motor filter when it is dirty.
Disposable Dust Bags and Filters
The dust bag and motor filter play a very impor tant roll in the efficiency of the vacuum
purpose of the dust bag is to trap dirt, but at the same time, the paper bag must be porous enough
to allow air to pass through. If the bag or the motor filter become clogged, no air can pass through the
cleaner and no cleaning can take place regardless of how powerful the unit is. To keep the cleaner
operating at maximum efficiency, change the dust bag frequently and clean the filter as needed. Some
fine particles can restrict airflow very quickly and will decrease performance even before the bag
appears to be full. For that reason, when vacuuming carpet fresheners or cleaners, powder, plaster
dust, or similar fine substances, the bag and filter may need to be changed more often.
How to Replace Dust Bag
NOTE: Turn off vacuum and unplug the electrical cord before changing
dust bag or cleaning motor filter. Never operate the vacuum cleaner
without the dust bag or filter
1) Turn off and unplug cleaner.
2) Open bag cover by pushing
latch up with fingers and lifting
bag cover.
3) Locate dust bag frame handle.
Raise dust bag out of dust
bag compartment
4) Remove dust bag from dust bag
frame and replace a new dust bag.
5) Remove motor filter and clean by
rinsing under warmwater,
if heavily soiled. Let completely
air dry before reinstalling. (Suggest up
to 24 hrs to allow the filter to
completely dry before replacing
it back into the unit).
