Dust blown out of Rainbow SE Performance vacuum
I have a used Rainbow SE Performance vacuum and when I use it to vacuum my carpet, it blows out some dust when I push the button to vacuum. While holding on to the button the dust only comes out on the initial push of the button and when I pull back when vacuuming. I hope this makes since. I've already cleaned the brushes and it still does that. Please let me know what needs to be done to not have that happen. I was thinking that there might be a filter somewhere that needs to be changed. Let me know. Thanks.

Your separator needs to be cleaned
If you're using a unit where the belt tracks in the center of the brush roll, (PN2, etc.), check that the brush roll wasn't installed backwards. There's an indicator groove cut into the wood, near one end of the roller . . . that grooved end should be nearest to the spare belt pocket.
Good chance there is a clog in the hose and dirt is collecting in the power head. Let us know if that doesn't help...

Nan,
There are no filters inside the SE Rainbow. Unfortunately, sometimes Rainbows get all dusty and dirty up inside the main unit and need to be cleaned internally. This service can cost anywhere from $50.00-$100.00, depending on your local vac shop prices.
