3. Carefully lift out the full dust bag. The Henry bags feature an innovative self-seal tab to lock dust inside, ensuring a dust-free emptying process.
4. Aruncați punga plină în mod responsabil.
5. Insert a new Henry dust bag, ensuring the cardboard collar is correctly seated in the bag holder.
6. Replace the top head unit and secure the clips.
