Hold the top firmly, and twist the bottom of the canister anti -clockwise and you will be able to clean. Re-assemble by lining up both parts and twisting clockwise to lock!

SOURCE: dirt devil easy steamer need directions to use

Thank you for responding to my question. I should have spent some time really looking at my little machine. It wasn't hard to figure out -once I found and read the back of the cleaning solution bottle and tried my luck following the water to cleaner ratio.. Opening, adding the cleaning solution and water and re-closing the reservoir was pretty easy. Everything worked out fine...and my carpet is...spotless. Thank you, Cmarie

SOURCE: no clogs, work fine, but makes a very loud wailing sound? what could it be?

My Dirt devil Reaction does the same thing. So I took apart the motor and it was crammed w/ dirt then I decided to clean it out. next time I vacuumed my house it was a lot quieter. The guy from Jones sew and vac said baggless vacuum filters most of the time fail and let dirt get in the motor and start to scream. I read a lot of things saying Dirt devil Reaction is the most common vacuum to get dirt in the motor and start to wail then get worse & worse and get to the point where they start to almost scream. P.S if you let it scream for along time of use it will give the motor permanent damage and you will smell electrical burning, if that happens it will be too late so you will half to buy a new machine. To get to the motor you can take the dust contaner off and take the black filter then use your down stairs vacuum and get a small attachament and stick it in and vacuum it out,if not have two vacuums borrow one. If that doesn't clean it out you will need to take all the plastic appart and realy get to the motor good. If my advice dosn't help it is ok to still use it, it will just be loud until the motor of it is totally fried. This should work it worked on my Dirt devil Reaction. I'm sorry if it doesn't work out. :D

Sound like you have an obstruction in the suction path. check the foot (bottom) check for suction at the hose for blockage. the blockage is where you lose suction.

How do i clean the two little top parts above the bottom empty dirt cup

hi there,

inside the dirt chamber you should be able to twist and remove both of the silver what look like arrowheads and you should be able to get up inside the top with a water hose to clean out the upper area there. Allow for the unit to dry before you put it back together.

Good luck.

How do I take apart the body of dirt devil 82500? I think something shorted out, and want to see if I can fix it. I took all visible screws out of body, but still can't separate the two halves to get to...

this is sort of easy, and hard at the same time.

First remove the dirt canister and hose.
take out your exhaust filter.
find all of your screws on the one side of the unit and remove them.
you will find one of the screws BEHIND the wheel on the same side all of the other screws are. Use the hole in the wheel to get at it.

Generally where the cord shorts out is right where it goes into the machine on the bottom there.

Good luck.

Our Dirt Devil D2 bottom has no suction

I would check the bottom of the unit to see if there is any blockage. I don't know if this unit has a switch that you set to switch from hose to floor. If so I would set it to floor and see if there is any suction in the hose, indicating a switching problem. If there is no suction in the hose, I would still check the bottom of the unit and disassemble it as much as you feel comfortable to see if you can see any blockage. Good luck!

Canister

The filters are not clean on both sides. Check the main filter at the top and the internal filters for each side, clear and brush cleanly and gently to remove all clogged dirt as well as checking the hose and inspection airways i.e. when the bin is taken off check the holes behind it and behind the beater bar for any clogging material.
