§ If the vacuum is in its upright position (page 6), raise
the handle while supporting the vacuum, then
slowly lower the vacuum to the floor.
§ Properly install the filter bag in the vacuum:
Lift the cover from the machine. The filter bag inlet
is designed with a rubber gasket that fits securely
over the bag adapter (page 7) in the cover. First
push the filter bag inlet over the adapter on the cover.
Then from the outside of the cover reach inside the
adapter and push the gasket on the rest of the way.
Replace the filter bag when full.
