Under certain conditions it is possible to stuff or block the intake

tube and the lower tube assembly. If your vacuum cleaner does

not pick up properly, or makes unusual noise and the outer bag

does not fluff up or balloon open, follow the following steps:

WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical

screws in the the top of

the lamp housing.

1. Check for blockage at the

mouth of the intake

opening. See illustration A.

If there is blockage, remove

it with long-nose pliers, a

screwdriver or coat hanger.

If you can not reach the

blockage, remove

baseplate. See illustration B.

2. If the blockage is not at the

base, remove lower tube.

See illustration C. Unhook

retainer spring, releasing

bottom of bag. Twist lower

collar counterclockwise to

slide up. Pull tube out of

base. Check for blockage.

If blockage is in the tube,

remove with a coat hanger.

3. If tube is not blocked, look

into fan housing. See

illustration D. Remove debris

with long-nose pliers, a

screwdriver or coat hanger.

4. To reassemble, check O-ring

on tube, and replace if

damaged. Vacuum will not

operate properly without the

tube O-ring. Slide O-ring to

approximately 2" from base

of tube. Replace tube by first

lining up slot at base of tube

with inner tab inside fan

housing. Then reinsert tube

and push down until the tube

is seated. Make sure O-ring is

in place against fan housing

opening. Replace and tighten

collar until collar locking tabs

are locked in place. See

illustration E. Make sure

collar is not cross threaded

on housing.

5. Many times blockage occurs

due to a full dust bag causing

dirt to back down the air flow

system. When that happens,

the blockage will be at the

top of the system, starting in

the area where the dust bag

connects to the connector

assembly. See illustration F.

NOTE: If the above actions do not correct the problem, contact

an ORECK authorized service center or call the customer service

center.

IMPORTANT: On plush and new carpets, stuffing may occur

due to excessive fuzz and loose cuttings in the carpet.

Stuffing could occur for the first few cleanings until all the

loose material is removed. Due to the high efficiency of the

cleaner, many older carpets will cause stuffing when the

cleaner is first used on them.
