using a screwdriver to separate the two covers from the panel
as shown in the picture.
- Undo and remove the 9 screws (T15) - C in the upper
housing (item 8). You will require a screwdriver with a
14.5 cm-long shank for this. Srewdriver 4322 009 08490
can be used.

may differ in case of specific versions. The components are
distinguished by means of code numbers.
- When the repair is finished, check whether all functions of

REPAIR INSTRUCTION
- Item 4, cotton dustbag, is used in countries in which paper
dustbags are not available.
- If the reel half spring unit is replaced, shaft A must be
lubricated with silicone grease. Do not apply any silicone
grease to or spill any grease on terminals (43) or conductors
(42).
- Item 40 is provided with a long cord-winder spring, but
both long and short cords can be used in combination with
this spring. (L = 9.3 m)
- Depending on the original cord, the spare cord must be
shortened to the length of the original cord.
- The cord winder spring must be tensioned to the maximum
level and then be rewound approx. 1.5 turn
- Item 13, air valve, opens to cool the motor if the air
displacement is too low or if the airflow is blocked.
- If the function of the electronic control unit (item 12) is
not required, the Triac must be short-circuited in the
manner shown in the circuit diagram.
- When the vacuum cleaner is used to suck up fine dust the
pores of the dustbag may become clogged, causing the
passage of air through the dustbag to become obstructed.
As a result, the dustbag-full indicator will indicate that the
dustbag needs to be replaced, eventhough the dustbag is not
full at all.
