VACUUMING TiPS
Suggested sweeping pattern.
For best cleaning action, the Power-Mate ® should
be pushed straight away from you and pulled
straight back. At the end of each pull stroke, the
direction of the Power-Mate ® 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: Fast, jerky
strokes do not
provide complete
cleaning.
The hose swivel allows
the hose to turn without
moving the canister.
This is helpful for clean-
ing in small areas.
Check hose for twisting
before pulling canister.
