Hi, this is Jon on behalf of Expert Village. In this video clip, I'll be talking about parts identification. At the very top of our tool, we have our handle. This is going to allow us to carry our vacuum. Located just next to our handle we have our on/off switch. This is going to give us the necessary power to our tool. The large gray area on top here is our motor cover assembly. The actual motor for the vacuum is inside of there. On the side of our vacuum, we have the tool holder. This is going to be a storage place for all of our tools that we are going to use. Inside of our vacuum just below the motor we have our float. The large blue area at the bottom is our tank this is what's going to store everything that we pick up. Lastly a few of the other components that we'll be talking about we have a mounting ring, we have a reusable dry filter and then we also have a foam sleeve.
