Hi, When vacuuming with this vacuum, the upper filter (that foam-pad) gets very quickly heavily clogged with dust and larger solid particles. Basically I can vacuum for 5 mins and then I have to clean it... I don't have pets or any other source of much dust/hair. It seems that the dust/dirt doesn't get trapped in the container but in front and on this foam pad... What am I doing wrong or is this just a bad vacuum? Thanks
Does it to me also.
I think the cause is a bad seal between the dust collector (cup) and the body or the cup is full.
make sure the body seal is not distorted and the cup is closed properly.
You may have to replace the filters, air maybe restricted going thru them. The main filter is part #73494, and the foam #74038. Also make sure the SLINGER/CYCLONE ASSY part #74068 isn't clogged up.

Every time I vacuum, the upper filter gets quickly clogged, even after cleaning it with water and allowing it to air dry for >24 hrs. Is there a way to fix this? It is extremely annoying that I can't even use it to vacuum my whole house in one try, I have to clean the filter then wait for it to dry!
