how do you get the bag off of the base?

It spins on and off....like a screw. At bottom of bag is male end, base is female end. Its a piece of cake to seperate.

It unscrews from the base. And disconnected, the bag is surprisingly light.

The bag portion screws/unscrews on to the base. Turn it clockwise/counter clockwise.

Give it a short twist to unlock the cap at the end of the handle and then pull it straight off. The bit carrier is actually attached to the cap.

We did the same thing, but I can't remember for sure. I think my husband knocked it apart with his hand and then redid it. Also you will find it helpful to put something heavy in the bottom of it before you put the bag in. This will help as an aid when you go to remove the bag.

It's held on by a big plastic nut. Unscrew that and the base will slide off.

Gently twist it into a figure 8 while applying pressure from the bottom and the top. Have the bag ready to slide it in once it's flat and slide it into the bag at least half-way before it pops up again. I hope this is helpful. It's a challenge, then it's easy.

Hello Jim:The lid on the Dust Deputy snaps off. There is a second bucket inside the one bolted to the vac and you just lift it out. I guess you could put a bag inside, but you really don't need it.

When I lift the bag off the rack the bag does not come off the handles if that is what you mean. The handles are loose when they are off the rack but that is as designed so if you want to remove the bags from the handles it is easy to do so. I am very satisfied with the sturdiness of this product.

It's designed so you can pull the bags out the bottom. Mine is set in a low cabinet so I just take the bag on top.

Beverly, It's not difficult to remove the top.....it's attached by two clips on each side. So you just flip them up and lift off the top. My only complaint is that the top really should have a handle of TOP so it would be easy to move the unit around and to just lift it off from the base instead of having to lift from where the two pieces meet. Also this is an odd shape and very large, so there are no liners that fit it. Even so we really like it....it holds a lot of litter and the shape fits perfectly in a corner. I scoop out once/twice a day and I can do this w/o having to take the top off. Then once a week I use a large kitchen trash bag, dump out all the litter and replace it. Hope this helps!

Twist the detector to remove from base. On the Side that is connected to base there is a door for the battery.

If you mean "to change the bag"? It's at the top, under the handle you would use to stand it upright. The white (on mine) piece under the handle pries up like opening a compact.

I don't find removing the bag difficult. There is plastic insert inside the trash bin fits snugly, however, so the bag sits tight. There are two little indentations where you use to lift this insert and remove the bag. This trash can is terrific!

Hi Robert... if you're talking about taking it out of the holster then - apply pressure at the bottom of the phone and push up (sort of like old BlackBerry cases). If you're talking about taking off the base cover - I haven't found a trick, but I was able work the edges slowly and take it off. I don't believe the manufacturer meant the bade to be separated often (so please be careful not to chip the edge if you wish to reattach). If you find a better way, please share :) Thanks

Hold the base and pull straight up on the pole. It will pop out of the base.

No, it is very easy to remove the bag; just remember to disconnect the hose from the vacuum first!

Can't say as I haven't taken the bag off the bike since new. I use is continuously so no need to remove.

There are 2 ways to empty it. There's a clip on the bottom you can open and empty and the top unlatches and twists off to empty as well. I prefer using the top approach.
