Reclipping cover on DC54 bin

Hi ​@SLC 

Welcome to the Dyson Community!

Here are a couple of steps you can check on your Dyson to clean the bin and cyclone, and reattach them:

• Remove the bin from the machine by pressing the bin release catch located to the side of the bin.
• Check the openings of the duct and bin for any blockages and remove as necessary.
• When the bin lid is open, a small silver button behind the red opening mechanism should be exposed. Press the silver button.
• Separate the cyclone unit from the clear bin.
• Clean the cyclone shroud with a cloth or the Combination tool to remove lint and dust.
                                    WARNING: Do not use water.                                  WARNING: Do not wash the cyclone.
• Reassemble and test machine.

Thanks Jannat. I have had the cleaner for  many years! 

The issue is that the hinge of the cover has come off the adjoining hinge of the bin. Being plastic the hinge has no flexibility. How do you reconnect without forcing and breaking the nodules.

So the answer is probably not specific to Dysons, rather a generic how-to of reclipping plastic hinges on any appliance carefully, without breaking it.
