Plastic bag mishap and caution

Postby Catsoline » Wed Oct 10, 2007 7:20 am

Yesterday my sister had come by to clean my house, she hadn't seen the Simply Clean and must have been curious about it, she also decided that the container was full (which it wasn't) and decided to change the bag. Last night I go into that room to get something and hear the SC making a strange noise, unpon checking it out I found the conveyor had caught the plastic bag and wound it around the gear near the motor, it was straining because all the give in the bag was gone. It took me about a half hour to get the plastic out of that area and the unit working correctly again. I'm guessing that she didn't tuck the bag under but left it crumpled at the top allowing the teeth on the conveyor to grab it when it turned on. Hopefully the motor is okay, it seemed fine this morning.

So be sure to tuck the bag securely under the container and make sure there is no extra plastic sticking up near the conveyor.

BTW, this unit is working fine and I'm still very happy with it.
