Had the same problem last year.Originally posted by ctdctd View PostAaaarrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhh,
84 year old father called. He's bought a new Vax vacuum cleaner from Argos in the sales but can't put it together.
Downloaded instruction book - diagram shown makes little or no sense without the product in front of me.
Guess who's going to visit tomorrow!
