The power cable of my Shark has been chewed through in several places by my rabbit. Is it possible for me to replace the cable myself? Is there a diagram or manual to help me strip the casing off to reveal the mains connection?

Can I use a regular vacuum cleaner to suck up ash? Verified

No, this is absolutely not possible. Ash that seems cooled may still be warm or even hot inside. A regular vacuum cleaner is not designed for this and it can cause a fire. Also, the filters of regular vacuum cleaners are not always suited for retaining extremely small particles such as ash. It can then reach the motor of the vacuum cleaner and cause damage.
