How the filter bag change indicator works The filter bag change indicator is designed to show when the bag is full of common household dust and measures the amount of air flow through the filter bag. Normal household dust is a mixture of dust, hair, carpet fluff, threads, sand, etc. However, if fine dust, such as drill dust, sand, plaster or flour is vacuumed, the pores of the filter bag may become blocked. The marker will indicate that the bag is "full" even when it is not. The filter bag should be changed as the suction power is greatly reduced. If the bag is bulging with pet fur, hair, carpet fluff, etc. the indicator may not register "full". This is because the air flow of the filter bag may still be high enough not to activate the marker to show maximum. The filter bag should still be changed. 13

How the filter bag change indicator
works
The filter bag change indicator is
designed to show when the bag is full
of common household dust and
measures the amount of air flow
through the filter bag. Normal
household dust is a mixture of dust,
hair, carpet fluff, threads, sand, etc.
However, if fine dust, such as drill dust,
sand, plaster or flour is vacuumed, the
pores of the filter bag may become
blocked. The marker will indicate that
the bag is "full" even when it is not. The
filter bag should be changed as the
suction power is greatly reduced.
If the bag is bulging with pet fur, hair,
carpet fluff, etc. the indicator may not
register "full". This is because the air
flow of the filter bag may still be high
enough not to activate the marker to
show maximum. The filter bag should
still be changed.
