10. Insert the snap ring of the collector bag into
the bottom of the housing at an angle 
(Figure 9). 
11. Pull down on the snap ring to make sure it
“seats” on the inner lip of the housing.
Note: Make sure the snap ring “snaps” into 
place in the housing, and also that the 
plastic bag hangs down approximately 3 
inches so that there are no air leaks. 
12. Remove the handle (Figure 10) from inside
the canister filter. Mount the handle onto the 
canister filter with two M10 hex nuts (A), two 
M10 flat washers (B), and an M10 lock 
washer (C). Arrange these fasteners 
according to Figure 10. Tighten with a 17mm 
wrench. 
13. Place the canister on top of the housing, and
push down to ensure the canister is seated 
on the housing. 
14. Insert and tighten the four knobs into the
threaded holes on the canister (Figure 10).
Note: The Powermatic® label on the front of the 
canister should have a negligible effect upon air 
flow. However, if zero effect is desired, the label 
can always be peeled off.
