Identify each of the attachments shown
above.
TO USE ATTACHMENTS:
Place the bare floor selector in the bare
floor setting by rotating the selector back
and down to the bare floor setting. See
CARPET/BARE FLOOR SELECTOR
section.
When returning the bare floor selector to
the carpet setting, use caution as the
selector can move quickly to that setting
due to tension created by the belt,.
Remove the lower end of the stretch hose
from the cleaner by grasping the hose
collar, twisting and pulling straight out.
NOTE: The motor protector may open
when using attachments or when cleaning
new carpet, due to reduced airflow by the
attachments themselves or by new carpet
fuzz filling the bag quickly. See the
TROUBLESHOOTING section.

Injury Hazard

servicing or cleaning the unit.
