Clearing a clog

low suction or poor pickup may be due
to a clog in the vacuum cleaner. if you
notice a change in the sound of the motor
or a reduction in the spinning action,
check for clogs.
1. unplug cleaner from electrical outlet.
2. Remove easy empty dirt tank from
vacuum base and empty dirt
and debris.
3. Remove inner cyclone from easy
empty dirt tank (see page 9)
and check for debris build-up or
clogs in the upper tank.
4. check the suction inlet for a clog.
5. grasp the hose wand to separate
from the hose wand base. check
for a clog in the base, the wand or
within the hose.
6. Remove the screw attaching the hose
wand base to the vacuum. straighten
the hose wand base and check for clogs
with a long, narrow object such as a
broom stick. do not use sharp objects
like a clothes hanger, as these may
puncture the hose.
7. if the clog persists, follow the instructions
for checking the rotating floor brush
on page 10 and inspect the air
passageway for obstructions.
