How to empty the dust compartment
IMPORTANT: Empty the dust compartment before the dust
reach the dust maximum mark.
If there is any piece of paper, cotton or other similar trapped
on the pre-filter, remove it to avoid loss of suction power.
NOTE: When vacuuming fine dust, such as powder or similar,
