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.

— Make sure that the filter bag/dust bag is
installed before use.
