Reassembly
Reassembly for normal filter
1. Put on filter until it is fully in position on the cleaner unit.

► Fig.16: 1. Filter
NOTE: Make sure filter is put on straight without
being peeled back. If filter is put on incorrectly as
shown in diagram, dust will get into motor housing,
and cause motor failure.
2. Connect prefilter. At this time, make sure to twist
prefilter so that securing lip is firmly locked into cleaner
unit.

NOTE: Always remove dust ahead of time, as suction
power will be reduced if there is too much dust in
cleaner.
NOTE: Always be sure to check that both filter and
prefilter are loaded correctly prior to using cleaner.
If they are not loaded correctly, dust will get into the
motor housing, and cause motor failure.
If the following examples occur, filter and prefilter are
not loaded correctly. Reload them correctly to rectify
problem.
