. Look inside the compartment on top of the motor unit where the cord plugs in. (Lift up the lid.) If you're lucky, there will be a little metal tool clipped inside there that looks something like a rectangular soda can pull-tab. It was called "The Basement and Attic Key," used to keep the machine from ejecting too soon when fine, powdery dirt was being vacuumed up. Lacking the tool, you can use a golf tee -- wedge it (pointed end first) inside the opening over the little metal tab sticking out from the lower-left side of the front cover and it will keep the ejection process from happening. (Note that if your machine still has the metal ejection apparatus inside the bag cage, you'll have to push it back down to the back of the bag cage before wedging the golf tee against the metal lever.) |
