OK... so my bestie and I were fixing up a Heritage II he got for me yesterday, and we decided to launder the bag. Since we were laundering the Heritage II bag, he decided he wanted to launder his Generation 3 bag with it. However, we could not figure out how to disconnect the hanging part, with the plastic clip and plastic bag top.
Does anyone know how to do this??? Any diagrams or advice would be super! |

Removing the bag assembly is pretty easy:
• There's a little hand grip on the underside of the mini-emptor. Just pull it away from the machine It will rotate about 45 degrees and disengage. • To disconnect the top part, just squeeze where it attaches to the arm that comes off of the handle The plastic bag topper just slides off. • Removing the mini emptor from the bag requires a couple of tools to take the bag strap loose. The procedure is at the Web page linked below: CLICK HERE TO GO TO human's LINK |

I know how to disconnect the Emptor, disconnect the fill tube, and remove the outer bag from the upright handle via the clip.
My question is actually, how do you remove the top plastic outer bag topper? Later Generation models just slip over the square plastic clip and the topper comes off. On this model, it seems to be connected like a Heritage bag, but also rivotted/fixed to the topper from the under side. Help!? |
