Why does my dirt devil 0100 smoke

My best guess is your smoke is not smoke, but dust. If the connections are not tight, a fine dust will escape.

Hi Walt, I don't know! do you have the filter in place? You are sure it's smoke and not dust? does it smell like rubber burning?Please check the rubber belt and make sure it's not twisted or jammed. Does the smoke have an order, is it like electrical burning or rubber?

There's an exhaust on one of the sides. You have to vacuum in favor of the exhaust side to keep the dirt swept up from blowing anywhere.

Hi Michael: That is not normal. I'd see about getting a replacement. Mine ignites very quickly and well.

Be sure one of the wheels on the bottom is not locked up. That could cause it to spin in one direction. also check that the hose connections spin freely otherwise it will jam up the cleaner. Hope this helps

I too, saw the "E2" warning. I unplugged it and cleaned it, to try again. Well, that's when it happened!! Unplug it, carefully place it back in the box, and send it back! Mine got so hot, it almost melted the counter top. (it did melt part of the smoker!) Send it back! Take no chances.

I don't have the dirt devil, I have the eureka and I have never had the problem the only complaint I have for the eureka is the attachments don't stay on very well when storing. but I can't speak for the dirt devil brand.

Mine smoked when I plugged it in the first time, using the appropriate adaptor. I live in Australia.

I only used mine once. I don't recall a lot of smoke but I did place the unit beneath my stove vent and turned the fan on as I recall. The fan is loud and I recall leaving it on so there must have been some smoke/steam.

Time to replace it. That's what mine did a few months before self-destructing (smoke, heat, etc). Probably a capacitor going bad, but that's just a guess...

it happened to me the first time. I always have it at a very low temperature on the stove and it rises slowly. I so I haven't had the problem again. I know we have the same smoker. the last time I used it I actually put it in the oven at 200 degrees and let it smoke with the cover on too.

You need to check your owner's manual or the Dirt Devil web site in order to confirm the right filter for your model. Do NOT buy anything but Dirt Devil brand filters.

Do you hear the motor speed drop as well? And are you running the hot air rework at the same time. It did it to me the other night I had the iron, rework wand, and the smoke absorber on all at the same time. And when the heating element kicked in my air would drop. Then come back when the iron turned off, then start again when the iron needed to heat. Did you remove the red plug from the bottom? And if that fails crack it open and see if any lines are loose, or cracked. If all else fails write me back and I'll help ya more if I can.-patrick

There is a small heating element that vaporizes the oil. The train has to be run for a little while before the heating element get's hot enough to vaporize the oil. If after 10 minutes of operation you still don't see puffs of smoke then the smoke unit may be defective and you will need to reach out to Lionel tech support .

I think you might have a defective unit. I really don't do much to clean mine and there is very little smoke unless it's the type of pizza thatyou are cooking. My pizzas are pretty plain gf with not a lot on them. I'm sorry that I can't tell you more. (too much oil maybe?

The Dirt Devil is a bagless vacuum, the filter is used to prevent dust getting inside the engine compartment, keeping the dust inside the dust casing.

It might be. My motor still works. The orginal motor burnt out because the canister was full of leaves. You might want to check that everything is put back and working correctly. The motor might be working too hard.

When using the unit for the first time, you may notice a fine smoke haze. This is normal. It is due to the initial heating of internal components. You shouldn't experience smoking after initial use.
