Dyson DC08 Cylinder Bagless Canister Cyclonic Vacuum\015 My Dyson DC07 has a broken release clip (spring loaded) that fastens the Contact Head to the wand. I have a spare rotating brush nozzle, that I never use, and would like to swap the clips over. As I don’t want to break the head in the process, what is the method of disassembly to gain access to the clips?\015

The Dyson DC07 was introduced in 2001 with brand new Root Cyclone technology.
There are two filters on a DC07, the first is the pre-motor filter, which are washable and is recommended by Dyson to be washed at least every 6 months.
Dyson DC07™ Upright vacuum cleaner (Clutchless)
The Dyson DC07 Animal has been designed specifically with pet owners in mind. It comes complete with a HEPA filter, a 3.5 litre bag capacity and a clutch that makes it perfect for all floor types.
The DC07 had a long production run from 2001 until 2008, and came in many different colour combinations.
Rinse under a cold tap until the water runs clear – you don`t need any detergents. Leave to dry fully (at least 24 hours) before refitting.
While some machines use one HEPA filter, most Dyson vacuums use two filters; the pre-motor filter and the post-motor filter.
In English, the Dyson DC07 the most powerful upright vacuum cleaner Dyson released had 280 Air Watts, the DC01 the first vacuum cleaner Dyson released had 90 Air watts so it has the same suction as a DC01.
Pneumatic cleaner head – Automatically self-adjusts to seal in suction across all floors, maximising dust removal without the hassle of switching or adjusting cleaner heads. Gets back up when knocked over – Conventional barrel vacuums can fall over.
The Outsize vacuum cleaner is armed with an intuitive Hyperdymium motor that hits up to 220 Air Watts in Boost Mode, giving Dyson`s upright and canister vacuums a run for their money.
Repair Service

Dyson will repair your machine in accordance with Dyson service and warranty terms and conditions. If your machine is under warranty, Dyson will perform repairs under the terms of such warranty, provided you have presented satisfactory proof of the machine`s eligibility for repairs.

Engine loses power or won`t start

If the pressure is too high, it can cause a head gasket to be pushed out, can cause cylinder head hardware to break or in some cases, will cause detonation inside the engine.

Dyson was designed and patented by a British, had it made in Malaysia (Johor Bahru), – as it is cheaper to make here.
The company is going to focus on its smaller, battery powered models, it said. It made the announcement as it revealed its new Cyclone V10 cordless vacuum, which it says is “why we`ve stopped developing corded vacuums”.
If there is a strong burning smell coming from the motor area of your Dyson DC14 or DC07 then it is most likely that your motor has burnt out.
Fortunately, it is easy to repair a vacuum hose with this problem and the hose will only be a few centimeters shorter once repaired. In some cases, you wont need any new parts to complete the repair, but if you do they are readily available and much cheaper than a new hose.
Fixing a broken or damaged vacuum power cord is another common vacuum repair that do-it-yourself-ers can easily handle at home. Home repairs on vacuums, tools, outdoor equipment, and other appliances can save you a truckload of money at the repair shop, and anyone can take on simple repairs like this one.
Remove the filter by lifting it out and separates the two parts which can be washed in warm soapy water and rinsed thoroughly. Filters should not be put back into the vacuum until they are completely dry.
Wash filters in cold water only

(don`t use detergent or wash in a dishwasher or washing machine). Rinsing under the water supply then gently squeezing the water out of the filter. Repeat until the water runs clear.

Most Dyson filters are found near the cyclone. You can safely lift and remove the filter out for cleaning. They are typically colored purple so they can be spotted easily. Be aware that some Dyson upright vacuums will contain more than one filter.
The cleaner head housing is not washable and should only be wiped over with a damp lint-free cloth. To maintain optimum performance, check and wash your brush bar regularly. Make sure your machine is disconnected from the charger and take care not to touch the trigger.
It is an acronym for “high efficiency particulate air [filter]” (as officially defined by the U.S. Dept. of Energy). This type of air filter can theoretically remove at least 99.97% of dust, pollen, mold, bacteria, and any airborne particles with a size of 0.3 microns (µm).
Almost all of the air purifiers in our ratings feature high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters that capture particles, including dust, pollen, and some mold spores. Some air purifiers use other types of filters or technologies to clean the air.
The DC07, released in 2001 was the first implementation of Root Cyclone technology into a cleaner.

This is embarassing, but I have just looked at the Dyson DC07 manual and at my Dyson for about 20 minutes, and I can’t for the life of me find the wand release button on my actual Dyson…..the manual pictures don’t look like the parts on my Dyson….I don’t have a hose with a wand release button….the hose just goes straight up inside the handle….Can someone help me? Thanks 🙂
ANSWER : Hi the wand release button is located directly above the the Cylinder release button. The wand release button looks like the picture below. In order to releease the wand you must firstly make sure the Electrical cable is not wrapped up for storage. So unwrap the electrical cable. then find the item as in the picture. Press this button in and at the same time lift the wand. This will realease the wand from the spine of the Dyson. dumfriesdon.jpg
