Dust escapes from around the dust bin area during use.

Safety first: Turn OFF the vacuum and remove the battery pack before inspecting the dust bin.

• Check bin latching: Remove and reinstall the dust bin, ensuring all latches click securely into place.
• Inspect gasket: Look for a rubber or foam gasket around the bin opening and cyclone connection. If it is torn, flattened, or missing, replace the gasket or the entire bin assembly.
• Inspect for cracks: Examine the bin for hairline cracks or splits. Replace the bin if any are found.
• Clean sealing surfaces: Wipe dust from the gasket and mating surfaces with a dry cloth to ensure a tight seal.
