Title: Removing a bit of fabric from a DC28C motor...
Post by: beko1987 on January 07, 2016, 09:08:04 pm
I got emailed by a lady who had 'sucked a tissue into the motor' of her DC28C. I picked it up at lunchtime, and had a look just now

This is all she gave me

Front gubbins off

Wheels off

Cracked open

The non replaceable (by the end user) filter looked clean

All back together, works a treat again. £30 for 10 minutes work, I'll drop it back tomorrow lunchtime.

Apparently,  she was cleaning the car and blocked the hose with it,  so,  without thinking (she said that),  she took the cyclone off and put the hose to the suction inlet... Knew immediately what a title she was and turned it off (again,  her own words)

No idea what it's like,  the suction very strong without the cyclone fitted but I didn't get that,  just got the motor unit.
