• The weight of the vacuum should be evenly distributed on your hips.
• Adjust the padded waist belt and shoulder straps for a custom fit.
• The backpacks have a ventilated backplate to keep the operator cool.
• The on/off switch is conveniently located on the waist belt of the backpack vacuums.
• Use the proper attachments for the job. ProTeam has attachments to perform most
