Empty The Dirt Receptacle
NOTE: Disconnect power cord from electrical outlet before removing the dirt receptacle.
Some models feature see-through windows on the receptacle to tell at a glance when
the receptacle needs to be emptied; on other models the receptacle must be removed. To
remove the receptacle, grasp the handles and turn the receptacle to the left. Remove and
empty the contents. Return the receptacle and turn to the right. Be sure the receptacle is
securely attached to avoid any suction leakage.
Filter and Disposable Bag
If the disposable paper bag is full or a filter is clogged, no air can pass through the unit
and no cleaning will take place. Remove and dispose of the paper bags.
SOME MODELS FEATURE A DISPOSABLE PAPER FILTER BAG WITH CLOTH FILTER
NOTE: Disconnect power cord from electrical outlet before cleaning the filter.
The elbow with the paper bag adapter must be installed, locked in its L slots, in the body
facing downward as shown for the paper bag.
1. Hold the bag collar with fingertips and align the bumps in the adapter with the bump
cutouts in the collar.
2. Insert adapter and push the bag collar all the way up to the lip on the elbow.
3. Rotate the bag collar 45˚ counter clockwise so the
bumps on the adapter DO NOT align with the
collar bump cutouts. Replace the bucket, turn to lock.
4. To remove, rotate the bag collar 45˚ clockwise and gently
lower the collar off of the bag adapter.
Cloth Filter
If the disposable paper bag is full or a filter is clogged, no air can pass through the unit
and no cleaning will take place. Remove and dispose of the paper bags.
NOTE: Disconnect power cord from electrical outlet before cleaning the filter.
NOTE: The cloth filter must remain in place even if the paper filter is used.
The elbow with the paper bag adapter must be installed, locked in its L slots, in the body
facing downward as shown for the paper bag.

2. Wrap a large garbage bag around the lower portion of the power unit and hold firmly in position.
3. Grasp the cloth filter through the plastic bag and shake. Dirt will drop into bag.

Replacement of the Cloth Filter Bag
NOTE: Removal of cloth filter is not advised and is not normally
necessary.
The band in the rim of cloth filter must be secured into corresponding
groove in Intermediate Body to ensure an airtight seal. If for any reason,
the cloth filter has been dislodged during shipment it must be reinstalled
prior to use.
Fold back filter band, align it with groove in body and uncoil. Final
portion of band should require a slight push to POP it into place. If not,
remove and repeat installation procedure.
