Empty dirt receptical / change 
bag (see page 17 to 19).

Check clamps holding dirt 
 receptical, to make sure they 
are tight and dirt receptical is 
aligned.
Open vacuum inlet
Close all vacuum inlets not in 
use.
Exhaust line is 
clogged
Verify that no object is blocking 
the exhaust.
Blocked hose
Plug the handle end of the 
hose into the suction inlet, thus 
 reversing the suction in the 
hose. Cover the gap around 
the handle, to ensure suitable 
suction strength, and ensure 
contact with inlet contacts to 
start the unit. This should clear 
the hose.
