the type of carpet. With the cleaner cord unplugged, set the
adjustment according to the table as a starting point. While
the cleaner is off and disconnected from the outlet, place the
handle in the operating position, tilt the cleaner back to remove
the weight from the wheels, and adjust the setting. Then plug
the cleaner into the electrical outlet, turn on the switch, lower
the handle, and pass the cleaner over the carpet. If the cleaner
is still diffi cult to push, follow the procedure and test the cleaner
at the next higher setting.
Continue testing the setting until the cleaner is comfortable
to move. Moving the knob or slide to the next higher setting
raises the brush roll slightly, making the cleaner easier to push.
However, the brush roll must make contact with the carpet for
effective cleaning.
HOW TO MAINTAIN
The instructions given in this booklet serve as a guide to routine
maintenance. To avoid unnecessary service calls, check the
bag, belt, and brush roll often. Empty or change the bag if it is
full; replace the belt if it is stretched or cracked, and clean the
brush roll bristles if they are wrapped with thread and hair.
Cleaner Care
NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord
before cleaning unit.
To keep the vacuum cleaner looking new, it can be wiped with a damp
cloth and a mild soap solution, then thoroughly dried. Never use any
type of chemical as chemicals can damage the cleaner. When not in
use, the cleaner should be stored in a clean, dry place.

Dust Bag

The dust bag plays a very important role in the effi ciency of
the vacuum cleaner. The bag traps the dirt and allows the air
to pass through. If the bag (either cloth or paper) becomes
clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner and no cleaning
can take place, regardless of how powerful the unit is. To keep
the cleaner operating at maximum effi ciency, empty or change
the dust bag frequently. Some fi ne particles can restrict air
fl ow very quickly and will decrease performance even before
the bag appears to be full. For that reason, when vacuuming
carpet fresheners or cleaners, powder, plaster dust, or similar
fi ne substances, the bag may need to be cleaned or changed
more often.
NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical
cord before servicing the bag. Never operate the
vacuum cleaner without the dust bag.

Brush Roll

The rotating brush roll sweeps and combs the carpet nap.
Keep the brush roll free from hair and threads so it will continue
brushing. When the bristles of the brush roll no longer touch
a straight edge held across the bottom plate, the brush roll is
ineffective because the bristles no longer touch the carpet nap.
To maintain the most effective cleaning, order a new wood
brush roll. Replace the brush strips on the metal brush rolls
(refer to appropriate instructions below).
