Attaching bent pipe assembly
Optional accessory
NOTE: You don't need to perform this procedure if your model
comes with the bent pipe assembly attached to the hose.
NOTE: There are two types of bent pipe assembly; the
one for slide-type extension wand and the one for ring-
type extension wand. If you prepare the bent pipe assem-
bly, choose the one for your desired extension wand type.
The bent pipe assembly is used for connecting the exten-
sion wand or nozzle for vacuum cleaning to this product.
If you want to use this product as the vacuum cleaner,
attach the bent pipe assembly to the hose.
To attach, unscrew the front cuff from the hose and
fasten the sleeve of bent pipe assembly onto the hose.
To remove, loosen the sleeve of bent pipe assembly
from the hose.

Installing filter bag / dust bag
Optional accessory
CAUTION:
Do not use a damaged filter bag.
Always use the vacuum cleaner with the filter bag
properly installed. Otherwise the vacuumed dust or
particles may be exhausted from the cleaner and
they may cause respiratory disease to the operator.
NOTICE:
When the filter bag is already full, replace
with new one. When the dust bag is already full,
empty it. Continuous use with the filter bag/dust bag
full results in reduced suction power.
1.
Unlock the latch by lifting the bottom side. Push
the grooved area to lift the front latching side. Pull the
latch to open the lid.
