Finding the model number
It's worth a look at the rating plate first, because names get reused across generations. On the drum-shaped Henry family (Henry itself plus Hetty and Harry) the rating label sits under the carry handle, though some have it on the back of the top section (the hat). James and Charles have it on the back of the machine, and so does George. On the Quick models it's inside the drum. The label shows the model and power rating, plus a serial number that starts with the year and week.

When to change them
A bag lasts up to about a month with average use; change it when the machine feels heavy or suction drops. Check the bag often. The TriTex/MicroFresh filter is not washable: tap or shake the dust off instead. (source)
A bag that's only half full can still be done for: fine dust blocks the pores first, which is why the indicator can go red early after a lot of plaster or fireplace dust.
Seeing a full warning on a fresh bag usually points to a blockage in the hose or floorhead. Check there before blaming the bag.
Washable filters go back in bone dry or not at all. A damp one smells, and on some machines it can let the motor pull moisture through.
