Dust escapes from around the canister or filter area during use.

Safety first: Remove the battery and wear a dust mask when handling fine dust.

• 1. Remove and inspect filter: Check for tears, holes, or gaps in the pleats. Replace if damaged.
• 2. Confirm correct installation: Ensure the filter is fully seated and locked into its mount with no gaps.
• 3. Inspect gaskets: Look for missing or damaged foam or rubber gaskets around the filter and canister lid.
• 4. Check canister for cracks: Examine the plastic body and lid for hairline cracks that could leak dust.
• 5. Replace faulty components: Install a new filter, gasket, or canister as needed to restore a sealed filtration system.
