VACUUMING
TiPS
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 or
floor with slow, gliding motions.
NOTE: Fast,
random strokes
do not provide
complete
cleaning.
CAUTION
Product Damage Hazard
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.
WARNING
Personal Injury and Product Damage
Hazard
DO NOT run over power cord with
PowerMate. Personal injury or product
damage could result.
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.
POWERMATE STEERING
The nozzle swivel rotates left and right for
improved maneuvering in tight spaces and
around corners.
WAND UPRIGHT LOCKED
POSiTiON
When the wand is
returned to the
upright position,
the wand rotation
lock holds the
wand in place.
This prevents
rotation of wand
and hose handle
for better stability.
UNDER FURNITURE
To maximize the
reach of the
PowerMate under
furniture, turn the
handle to either
side and lower the
wand close to the
floor.
