Filter Bag
16
Bag Support
Remember this vac-
uum has powerful suction and can pull fine dust out of a carpet that
other vacs may not have been able to do. This can mean that fine dust
will coat the inside of the filter bag effecting the vacuum performance. It
could take a week or two to get all the fine dust out of commercial car-
pets.
5. If fine dust, like talc, cement/plaster or clay is picked up - the filter bag will be clogged
and reduce the suction. Therefore, brush clean the inside of the filter bag after use. Alterna-
tively, on commercial sites use a spare vacuum cleaner to vacuum the bag. However for the
best results in this type of environment fit a paper bag inside the cloth filter bag.
6. Never wash the filter bag.
7. After use detach hose from the lid and clean around the outside of the swivel cuff - this
can be done by tilting and rotating detached cuff at the
Check hose, tubes, floor tool and lid regularly for blockages.
8. When electric cord is unplugged check for any damage -
especially cuts. If damaged replace cord. See below under servicing.
9. Store unit upright on its base or hang by the carry handle. Always store cable as in Fig. 15.
DO NOT wrap cable around the machine or behind the vac between the body and the
carry handle.
This unit may be fitted with a receptacle for a motorised power floor brush. Most power-
heads can be adapted to this receptacle. See your supplier to ensure that the proper plug
and hose fittings are used.
Make sure this vacuum cleaner is serviced regularly. Frequency of service depends on use,
however carbon brushes must be checked the first time within 300 hours of use. Clean out or
replace internal foam insulation and replace cloth filter bag every 300 hours unless you are
using paper bags inside the cloth bag. Replace damaged cable with a 7.5 Amp 2 core cable.
This vacuum cleaner is double insulated and is flame retardant for your safety and protection.
However, a shock can occur if the electric cable is damaged. If the supply cable is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer or its agent or retailer to ensure the correct type of ap-
proved cable is supplied in order to avoid a hazard.
This appliance is not intended for use by young children or
Infirm persons without supervision. Young children should
be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
DO NOT expose to rain and DO NOT pick up water or other liquids.
1. Always empty the filter bag when full.
2. Make sure the bag support stand is in position at the bottom of the
canister under the filter bag (see Fig. 16). N.B. This support stand must
always be in position to maintain vacuuming performance. If your vac
uses a secondary filter disc - it must be on top of the bag support.
3. Check filter bag for holes or tears. Replace if torn or damaged.
Failure to do so could result in motor damage.
