DC 3300

Post by godavid2 »

Got a newer SS dust collector 2010 but no manual. The SS website does not show the newer DC manual. I really like it because the switch is located in the motor vent and there is a bar for wraping the cord on below the top handle. But its got a big problem and that is attaching a new bag. Has anybody had any experience with attaching a bag to the newer DC. The older models had 3 clips to attach the bag and then attach the strap not these newer ones. Thanks in advance for any help.

Got it figured out had to lay it on it back. The base housing where the motor and fan is made of metal. Don't know how many they made that way but is probably why they did not put the clips for attaching the bag in the housing. Just my two cents worth.

This is an unusual world we live in.

I have the older model DC and about the only thing I dislike(d) would be the clips. Mine are still there but I have not used them in years.

My only other complaint is the (over)size of the bag.
