    Sorry - you've confuzzled me. What advice are you looking for? You've already been told how to clean the filter on your Magnaclean.

    Oh I see - post #6. How can I put this diplomatically? Your images are exceedingly poor quality and out of focus. Please try harder. :D

    However they are sufficient to enable a good guess that you have a Magnaclean Micro.

    Yes a very disappointing thread, I was hoping for "I have taken off the front cover and another cover is it OK to clean the wiggley pipe bits with cola?"

    :mad: And thats exactly why DiYers should NOT be given information on work that only a GSR engineer can legally carry out :mad:

    Using the inserrt image icon as has been said. You just need to put the url of the image you want to include in your post in the little box that appears when you click on the insert image icon.
