My dyson cyclone assembly will not spin when it...
Posted by littleladysc on Jun 18, 2008
I have 2 dyson dc07. The cyclone assembly will not spin when dirt is picked up, but when I change them out the vacuum is fine, so I know it is the cyclone assembly. Any suggestions? Thanks!


Hello,
I would advise you to ALWAYS to FIRST UNPLUG YOUR VACUUM before beginning any service procedure. Dyson DC07 Bagless Upright Cyclonic Vacuum.

It sounds to me that you may have a clog but when you said you changed them out the vacuum is fine, so a couple of things, if the vacuum is still under a factory warranty of 1 or 2 years the cyclone assm still would be under a factory warranty. If it is over the 1 or 2 years then you would have to replace the cyclone assm but you may want to check with the Dyson Factory Tech Support / customer Service line as per the problem, and they can ship you the part from the factory or to check with your local vacuum cleaner dealer in your area and they may have one in stock or they can order one for you. So if you need further assistance, please feel free to contact your local vacuum cleaner dealer in your area or in the yellow pages, or contact the factory phone number or website to further assist you with your questions.

You don't! It is not meant to be dismantled. Just pour water inside it. Then let it dry out thoroughly, say, 3 to 4 days, including the filter.

SOURCE: how do i clean my dyson root cyclone vacuum

believe it or not i would use a long paint brush with a opened bin linner,, to collect all the dust,,,

you can wash your blue filter in plain water and leave to dry as u would pots n pans on the side,,

when u have cleaned the area around the cyclone.. close your eyes and blow into the cyclone.. then use another large hoover to remove access dust and rubbish that was in the cyclone,

hope this helps reguards lee.

Dyson DC41 cyclone mesh consistently covered or clogged

My DC12 does the same. I find that washing it in hot soapy water helps it not to stick.

Dyson dc17 clogging hose near brush, no dirt going into cyclone canister.

all battery vacs work on the same principle
so you have to clean out the hose behind the brush right up to the canister.
Hoover air stick has the same problem so they changed the head so that a removable section can be taken out the hose pulled up and a bottle brush can be used to clean out the hose to the canister and behind the brush
You will have to clean out behind the brush up to the canister to fix the problem

Howto remove fine dust collected behind gauze mesh

Hi Gillian, it's Jack at Dyson.

Let me reassure you that it's normal for fine dust to cling to parts of the clear bin and cyclone pack, including behind the fine mesh shroud. This is caused by harmless static, and has no effect on performance as airflow doesn't have to pass through the dust.

To help prevent dust from building up, try tapping the cyclone pack firmly as you empty your machine. This will dislodge much of the clinging fine dust.

Please do not wash or submerge the cyclone pack, as this is likely to cause damage to your machine not covered under guarantee.

If you'd like any further help or maintenance/cleaning advice, just give the Dyson Customer Helpline a call on 1-866-693-9766 (US), 1-877-397-6622 (CA) 1800 239 766 (AU), or 0800 298 0298 (UK).

We have a dyson DC23 and would like to know how to remove filter on carpet cleaning head. We have followed direction on the head but are unable to remove, what I imagine, is a filter.

Hi Elma, it's Jack at Dyson.

If the part you're referring to is the mesh intake on the plunger on the side of your DC23's Turbine head, this part is not designed to be removed by the user. Attempting to remove it could cause damage not covered under warranty.

In normal use, we wouldn't expect the plunger or intake mesh to need regular maintenance, other than to remove any accumulated fluff or debris from the outside of the intake mesh. There is no further filter behind the intake mesh that would need attention.

Hopefully your DC23's Turbine head is working effectively for you, but if not, and you've already checked for any blockages, just contact our experts directly so we can provide further assistance. You can reach us by calling the Dyson Customer Helpline on 0800 298 0298 (UK), 1-866-693-9766 (US), 1-877-397-6622 (CA) or 1800 239 766 (AU).

Dc59 I removed the clear canister but the inside with the chambers with a mesh cover are filled with a fine powder. How to I clean?

I have the same buildup of very fine, powderlike, dust/dirt particles behind the mesh screen.

I do not doubt your technological explanation as to why/how this accumulation has occurred but there is another issue created by this buildup and an concern to go with it.

The issue is that this accumulation literally stinks. We have 4 cats and a dog which is likely why there is such an odor. There must be a way to remove this stuff.

The concern is that, after putting up with the stinky Dyson and the continued accumulation, the "dust" will eventually completely fill the space behind the mesh screen. When that screen is completely filled is the only solution we have is to spend another $600 for a new Dyson?

The Dyson is not your typical disposable technology that we often buy today. We chose to spend the extra $ for the Dyson because of the spirit cleaning of the unit. Had we known the unit would, within 6 mos., begin to stink and would likely need to be thrown away within two years we would have purchased a less expensive brand.

Since we have learned now that Dysons are stinky and disposable units we can run it under water, let it dry and hope for the best?

How do I dismantle my Dyson DC58 to clean all filter etc

Hi David, it's Jack at Dyson.

We'd advise against dismantling DC58 any further than is shown in the User guide. This could cause damage to your machine not covered under guarantee - meaning any replacement parts needed could be chargeable. However, you can wash the lifetime pre-filter following the steps shown in the video below:

We recommend washing the filter at least once a month, using cold water without detergent. Make sure the filter is totally dry before replacing it, which could take at least 24 hours.

To clean any fluff or debris from the mesh shroud, press the red bin base release catch once to open the bin base. Then with the base still open, press the same red catch firmly a second time:

dismantle-dyson-dc58-clean-all-filter-m43difmpidfjgfho0k5c5fgh-2-0.jpg

You can use a dry cloth or a soft brush to remove any debris from the mesh shroud.

It's normal for harmless static to cause fine dust particles to cling to parts of the bin, cyclone pack and behind the mesh shroud. This dust will not affect performance as the airflow doesn't need to pass through this. You should find tapping the cyclone pack gently when emptying the machine will help dislodge any clinging particles.

I hope this helps, but for further advice you can call our experts directly on 0800 298 0298 (UK), 1-866-693-9766 (US), 1-877-397-6622 (CA) or 1800 239 766 (AU).

How do I clean a build up of dust behind the mesh on the cyclone shroud of my dyson dc59?

Hi William, it's Jack at Dyson.

It's normal for harmless static generated in use to cause fine dust particles to cling to parts of the clear bin and cyclone pack. This will not affect performance as airflow doesn't have to pass through this dust, and it's not necessary to remove dust particles from behind the mesh shroud. When you empty the machine after use, tapping the cyclone pack gently will help dislodge any clinging particles.

You can remove any fluff or debris from the mesh shroud itself by removing the clear bin. To do this, press the red bin release catch once as if you were emptying the machine. Then with the bin base still open, press the red release catch firmly a second time to disengage the clear bin.

25260487-pkv2cgujyifqzetveq41ao5v-5-0.jpg

A soft brush or a dry cloth can then be used to remove any hair or debris from the shroud.

Aside from this, the only other maintenance needed is to wash the pre-filter at least once a month using cold water without detergent:


Always ensure the filter is completely dry before replacing it in the machine - this may take at least 24 hours.

I hope this helps, but if any further guidance is needed you're welcome to give our experts a call on 0800 298 0298 (UK), 1-866-693-9766 (US), 1-877-397-6622 (CA) or 1800 239 766 (AU).

How do I clean behind the fine net on the cyclone unit

Hi,

CLEANING BEHIND THE CYCLONE MESH
1. Detach the Cyclone and bin from the main body as you would when emptying.
2. Standing over a bin. empty the contents of the cyclone by pulling the bin flap release button upwards.
3. Whilst the flap is still down detach the bin from the cyclone by pushing up the button on the middle of the cyclone.
4. Sit the bin to the side as you dont need to use it.
5. Get a pair of pliers
6. Use the pliers to pull the fins from the bottom of the cyclone. 1 by one you will hear them click out of position. When you pull the 4th and final fin the baffle will detach and you will then be able to clean the baffle and also the cyclone.
