When to Change the Vacuum Bag
The Full Bag Indicator changes to red to
show when the bag is full or when there
is a clog in the vacuum (Fig. 1).
The indicator could also turn red when
vacuuming fine powders such as flour or
drywall dust. These materials can quickly
block the bag pores, significantly reducing
airflow before the bag is actually full.
The vacuum bag should still be changed.
The indicator may also turn red during
attachment cleaning. If the indicator
changes to green when attachments are
no longer in use, the vacuum bag does
not need to be changed.
NOTE: The vacuum bags are disposable
and should be used once. Do not attempt
to reuse the bag, as suction and filtration
performance will be greatly reduced.
Replacing the Vacuum Bag
Change the vacuum bag when the full
bag indicator changes from green to red
or when the suction power is weak.
• Open the bag compartment lid (Fig. 2).
• Pull the tab on the bag collar, which
closes the bag while removing it from
the bag holder.
• Remove and discard the used bag.
• Slide a new bag into the bag holder
until it clicks into place.
• Close the bag compartment lid.
