Possible Causes

Damaged or incorrectly fitted SEBO filter bag, Torn bag gasket, Missing or clogged exhaust filter, Cracked bag housing

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the machine before opening the bag or filter compartments.

  • Replace the bag: Remove the current bag and inspect for tears or a loose collar. Install a new genuine SEBO bag, ensuring it locks firmly onto the holder.
  • Check seals and gaskets: Inspect the rubber or foam seals around the bag door and filter frames. Replace any that are cracked, flattened, or missing.
  • Replace exhaust filter: If the exhaust filter is missing or damaged, dust can escape. Install the correct SEBO exhaust or HEPA filter for your model.
  • Inspect housing: Look for cracks in the bag compartment or exhaust cover. Cracked housings may require replacement of the entire body shell.

Using non-genuine bags or filters can compromise sealing and filtration performance.
