NOTE: Check that the cyclone attachment, cleaner,
and straight pipe are locked properly before restarting
operation.
NOTE: If the suction force does not recover even
after disposing of the dust and cleaning the mesh
filter, check whether dust has accumulated in the
capsule of the cleaner or clogging has occurred.
NOTE: The dust may fly up when disposing from the
cyclone attachment. Be careful not to let dust get into
your eyes.
Cleaning
When the dust case becomes dirty or the mesh filter is
clogged, remove and wash them with water. (Refer to
