USA & Canada: 1-800-989-4244
Please specify the model number and serial/code number which can be found on the data plate on the back of the vacuum.

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a safe path of least resistance for electrical current, reducing the risk of electric shock. The cord for this appliance has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. It must only be plugged into an electrical outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not modify plug provided with appliance.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is grounded. If not, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit. It has a grounding plug similar to the example shown. Make sure the appliance is connected to an outlet with the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this appliance.
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

Operating Recommendations
This new ORECK XL Professional Grade Commercial Upright is one of the finest, fastest, and strongest units in its class. You'll love the way it cleans, and it's easy to use.
The following are a few simple suggestions regarding its operation:
The performance of your new vacuum cleaner greatly depends upon care and maintenance. The instructions in this manual will guide you in performing basic care and maintenance. To obtain the most satisfying years of service read the instructions and keep them handy for future reference.
Disposable Paper Filter Dust Bags
Disposable paper filter dust bags play a very important role in the efficiency of your ORECK vacuum cleaner. The purpose of the paper bag is to trap dirt, but at the same time it must be porous enough to allow air to pass through. If the paper bag becomes clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner and cleaning cannot take place, regardless of the cleaner's power. Increase the CLEANING POWER of your vacuum cleaner by changing the bag often.
To keep your cleaner operating at maximum efficiency, change the dust bag frequently. DO NOT OVER FILL DUST BAG.
Be sure the disposable paper filter dust bag is installed properly.
All paper dust bags are not the same. Your ORECK recommended disposable dust bags have been designed to be used with the ORECK vacuum cleaner. Using bags other than ORECK recommended disposable bags will affect the cleaning ability of your cleaner and could cause damage to it.
Lubrication
The vacuum cleaner motor bearings are factory lubricated and sealed. Further lubrication is not required.
General Vacuum Cleaner Care
At least once a month, check for and remove excessive lint, string or hair from revolving brush.
Wipe the outside of the vacuum cleaner with a damp cloth. Also clean the base of cleaner and housing area.
A little preventative maintenance will keep your cleaner looking new and will ensure continued cleaning effectiveness.
Wood Floors, Soft (Vinyl, Asphalt Tile, etc.) Floor Surfaces and Polished Floor Finishes
Use floor and floor finish manufacturer's recommended methods of cleaning. The metal strip on the base of the vacuum cleaner could be damaged if used on concrete or abrasive surfaces, and, therefore, cause damage to wood floors, soft (vinyl, asphalt tile, etc.) floor surfaces and polished floor finishes. The roller brush may also scuff very soft finishes.
Electronic Brush Alert
The vacuum cleaner is equipped with an electronic power brush alert: two lights - GREEN and RED (fig 9).
Green Light - Lower brush unit operating properly.
Green Light and Blinking
Red Light - Brush drive belt out or broken.
Red Light - Brush rotation obstructed. Refer to Troubleshooting section.
These lights alert the operator of problems which must be corrected immediately. Monitor these lights during operation.
Thermal Overload
The internal temperature of the vacuum motor is sensed at all times. When the temperature gets too high the sensor shuts off the vacuum motor. Inspect the machine for any air obstruction. The sensor will reset automatically when the sensor and electric motor have cooled sufficiently. The motor can then be restarted
Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.
Do not operate the vacuum without the inlet filter in place.
Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.
If a previous adjustment has already been made and bristle height does not extend above baseplate, a new brush assembly should be ordered.
