I thnk I am using the hole in the back incorrectly. How can I tie the excess of the garbage bag correctly? Thanks!

you have to put the bag inthen wrap the excess around the rim and tighten it then bunch the exess and insert in the small hole by the way it works better when the hole is in the back so facing you if you're in the front of the trash can

Sounds as though you are looking at the top of the bag, Mimi. There should also be a tube at the bottom of the bag with a clamp attached to the drainage hose that you can release. The drainage hose on the one we have is green and has a white clamp - the hose tucks into a clear plastic thing that is permanently attached to the bottom of the bag. Hope this helps.

Yes you can. In fact it is deigned to use a liner. It will keep the yellow bag clean and in good condition and keep your staff from having to clean out the trash by hand.We used 80" by 60" trash liners. This wiil be very generous and once you pull the bag you can add additional trash and you will still have room to tie the bag. There is a special bracket at the opening to hold the bag in place and a zipper in the front for easy removal of the bag once full.

If your using a tall 12" bag (for example) seal the top closed without anything in it. Now you have a sealed bag on both ends. Cut the bag MidWay in half. You now have 2 smaller 6" bags to work with. Fill bag, seal it and ready to go is the other half...Hope it helps!

When the waste starts to reach the top it's time to change. The bags are not precut, but there is a cutter inside the mechanism. Use that or scissors and tie a new knot

I use a big zip tie just above the handle, on the shaft, (it swings around loose) and that hooks onto a hook on that big padded part on the side. HTH

You are not doing anything wrong. I can never get the bags to zip properly either. I just squeeze as much air out as possible, zip the bag as best I can, then fold the top over and wrap a large gum band (top to bottom) to keep it from spilling.

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.

Mine is outside in the exact location you're speaking of. I've had no trouble with it at all. I decided to use a garbage bag over my new one, but my old one still works fine and I never covered it.

I have found that if I pack the trash down into the bag to get as much as I can into the bag before taking it out it will be harder to get out and will catch on the screws from the handles. What I did to prevent that is cover the screws with packing tape and it doesn't happen any longer. Or not stuff the bags so full. Hope this helps.

Richard,There is a spring/band/hoop that is located, or mated up to, a groove in the metal portion at the top of the plastic bag. You need to push in on a smaller area of the bag near the top and try to get the hoop/spring separated enough that you can then get the hoop/spring and bag separated from the metal ring portion of the dust collector. Good luck...it's also a challenge to get the hoop/spring & bag back in place.

Don't know that your doing anything wrong. We just step on the pedal, drop the diaper in, and let go of the pedal and it pulls it down. When you change your bag are you pulling it through some and then tying the knot? That might could be a problem. Maybe when you change the bag pull down about a 1/2 to a foot of bag tie knot and then see if that helps maybe its just been to snug. We love ours.

i am not sure about your 1st question. But i do know that you need to hang the heavy bag and use another rope to tie the bottom of the heavy bag to this stuff, the heavy bag cant stand on the anchor. and this makes the anchor only suits heavy bags with double ends, meaning that there is a ring on each end of them

You have the vaccum connections wrong make sure you have the hose connected to a red flap that opens down on the right hand side, the cord sets as you see it here. I have had mine over a year and NEVER had that problem, if connected properly and the BAG is in PLACE you should not have this trouble , if I knew more, such as where is dirt blowing from etc. I suspect the hose is hooked up wrong or the airbag is not installed tightly enough over the lip it goes on. Hope this helps.....

I think I may have hot-glued a strip of vinyl down there...whoops, just remembered, the zipper goes all the way across the bottom of the bag and I had a mishap when the zipper gave way and my gtr fell out of the bottom of the bag. Luckily it didn't suffer any horrific consequences. I ended up hot-glueing the zipper inside and out along the bottom. It'll never happen again! But, despite this pretty serious shortcoming, I do like the basic design and features of the bag more than most gig bags I've had. They just should NOT run the zipper along the bottom, it's useless to do that anyway. Hope this helps...

you may have the refill backwards, it should just drop in ,pull the trap out and push the bag in, trap holds the bag in.
