and straight pipe are locked properly before use.

ment and the dust bag of the cleaner when dust has

without lock function.

NOTE: Check that the cyclone attachment, cleaner,

after disposing of the dust and cleaning the mesh
filter, check whether dust has accumulated in the dust
bag of the cleaner or clogging has occurred.
Cleaning
