How To Assemble; How To Operate - Sanitaire SC600 Series Owner's Manual

CAUTION
!
Assemble vacuum cleaner FULLY
before using. With brushroll on, do
not allow vacuum to sit in one
location for an extended period of
time, as damage to floor can result.

How to assemble

1. Slide the upper handle and the lower
handle together so the handle bolt
holes are positioned as shown in the
detail drawing. Insert a 2-part bolt in the
center of the handle and tighten. Hold
assembled handle so handle curves
away from vacuum. Place lower handle
into handle socket at rear of vacuum.
Align holes. Insert 2-part bolt and
tighten using screwdriver.
2. Pull the spring on the electrical cord
upward toward the top of the handle.
Insert the lower half of the spring into
the upper cord hook as shown. Snap
the hook into the upper handle (Fig. 4).
3. Insert the power cord into the lower
cord hook. Snap into lower handle. Pull
on the cord to tighten but leave enough
slack near the base so the cord is not
strained when the handle is lowered.
Wrap the cord around the two cord
hooks and fasten the plug to prevent
unwinding.
5. Insert the bag adapter clip on the
bottom of the bag collar into the bag
adapter retainer.
6. Push the bag collar up and forward so
the locator lug slides into the slot. Turn
the cam latch to lock the bag onto the
rivet. Loop the spring on the top of the
bag onto the bag support on the back
of the upper cord hook.
