I think I have 3 boxed set of tools (1 large and 2 small) in addition to those in the tub. I am praying I did not get rid of it (AAAAAAAAH) when I could not find the machine. That would be a tragedy. Film at 11. |

I recently acquired an Oreck compact canister at Goodwill for the princely sum of $5 and although I didn't notice a dog odor in the store, it was pronounced when I turned the machine on. My solution, after a cursory cleaning—I did not disassemble it—was to run it with the bag door removed and to spray floral scented disinfectant spray (Walmart knockoff of Lysol) into the bag chamber for about 10-15 seconds and then let it run for a minute or so. This seems to have alleviated the odor problem, but next time I'm down in my barn, I'll fire it up again and see what, if anything, I smell. It appeared to have been run without a bag or after-filter (it now has both), but thankfully, there doesn't seem to be any debris rattling around inside the machine. I'm hoping to avoid having to completely disassemble it.
