Abstract
A particle separation member is provided for use with a cyclone separator. The particle separation member divides the separator into a cyclone chamber and a particle receiving chamber. The cyclone chamber and the particle receiving chamber communicate via a plurality of apertures in the particle separation member. The particle separation member is provided with an access member which is movably mounted with respect to the particle separation member for providing access to the particle receiving chamber to empty the collected contents therefrom.
