turn the machine over. Loosen the screws, remove the hood, and you'll find the lens come right out. As far as BAGS go, as the owner's manual states, "It is imperative that you use only genuine HOOVER bags". Others will nullify your warranty. And, WHY would you contemplate using an F and G bag? Are they not for "Eueka"? |

Excellent find!!! I would experiment with the F & G bags. The Hoover Type C bag can be a mess. |
