or wet dusts when using a paper pack. Picking up
such things may cause the paper pack breakage.

When using the cloth filter, make sure
that the float and the float cage are attached on

Installing polyethylene bag
With a polyethylene bag installed in the tank, you can
easily empty the tank without letting your hands dirty.
Lay a polyethylene bag over the tank, and slip one side
of the top edge of the bag at its open end in between
the holder plate and the front wall of the tank.
