that they be vacuumed with the PowerMate ®

DO NOT pull plug from wall by
the power cord. If there is damage to
the cord or plug, personal injury or
property damage could result.
CAUTION

Use care if the PowerMate ® and wand is
left in the upright position as it may tip
over easily. Property damage can occur if
tipped.
Suggested sweeping pattern.
For best cleaning action, the PowerMate ®
should be pushed straight away from you
and pulled straight back. At the end of each
pull stroke, the direction of the PowerMate ®
should be changed to point into the next
section to be cleaned. This pattern should
be continued across the carpet with slow,
gliding motions.
NOTE: Fasb jerky strokes do not provide
complete cleaning.
The hose swivel allows the hose to turn
without moving the canister. This is helpful
for cleaning in small areas.
Check hose for
twisting before
pulling canister.
