1 Fit a dust bag by pushing it firmly onto the
black knob on the dust bag connector.
Push the shutter down so the hole is open
The Dust bag has diagrams showing exactly how to fit it.
2 Push the connector into the slot in the dirty
water bucket
3 Push in the connector on the end of the hose.
Turn it clockwise to lock
4 Fit the cone filter unit and motor unit
Ensure the two retaining clips are secured.
You may have to push down hard on the edges of the
motor unit above the clips. They are a tight fit.
The transparent tube is not used for vacuuming.
However, fitting it will keep it out of the way.
Push it in firmly and turn clockwise to lock.
5 Join the extension tubes and fit them to
the hose hand grip
The tab should be twisted around after joining the
extension tubes, to lock them together. Close the
regulator hole on the hand grip for maximum suction.
6 Choose suction power
Vacuum carpets on high power.
Vacuum fabrics and upholstery on low power.
Make sure that the cable is fully unwound.
Put the plug into a wall socket.
7 Choose the right tool for the job
The smaller tools and the extension tubes can be fitted
to the back of your VAX when you are not using them.
8 Switch ON
Push the button on the handle marked
for on, push again for off.
Tip
As your VAX is very powerful, you may find that the dust
bag fills up quickly the first time that you use your VAX.
