Among all of my current problems my ability to perform complicated and difficult tasks was supposed to help me through this ordeal. I can fix and maintain farm machinery with no trouble. Do a crossword puzzle in ink. Solve complex problems with apparent ease. I can take apart the harness for the four horse hitch and put it back together with no spare parts. But you would not believe the mess I made when I had to empty the vacuum cleaner just now. I will concede that until recently it was not my job to operate it on a regular basis but have used this vile piece of equipment as needed. This however was my first attempt at figuring out why it seemed to have lost most of its suction. This is not a bag model, It has a diabolical paper filter covering this "chamber" full of dirt which must be handled with all of the care you would give a land mine. Oh and do not drop it while trying to get this tub turned upside down while holding a garbage bag over the open top while covering the hole where the hose fits on. Its my guess there is a trick to this I shall attempt to find out before it happens a second time.
