Carpet Height Adjustment
The cleaning of carpet and rugs takes place at the nozzle
(A). When it is necessary to raise and lower the nozzle for
various carpet pile heights, place handle in upright
position and turn the carpet height adjuster (B) to the
desired setting (Fig.4/3).
WARNING: This cleaner has a constantly
!
rotating brush bar which, when left in contact
with lino, parquet and other hard flooring could
potentially cause some damage to the floor surface.
NOTE: Vax recommends that you raise the height of
the brush bar when using this cleaner on lino and hard
flooring. Vax cannot be held responsible for damage to
these surfaces if the customer fails to take notice of
this recommendation.

NOTE: The nozzle will not move into the adjusted
position until the cleaner handle is lowered to the
operating position.
Settings
For maximum cleaning performance, the following carpet
height settings are recommended:
• Lowest setting: for all types of carpet.
NOTE: If the cleaner is difficult to push, turn knob to
the next higher setting.
• Higher settings: for very deep pile carpet, where easier
pushing effort is desired, while maintaining good cleaning
performance.
Cleaning Lightweight Flexible Rugs
Stand on one end of rug and move cleaner toward other
end or edge. Before reaching edge, push down on handle.
This will lift up the nozzle (front of cleaner) as shown and
will prevent rug from clinging to cleaner (Fig.4/4).
Fig.4/4
Continue to lift up nozzle so that when you have reached
the edge, it is completely off the rug. Move cleaner back
to start again, lower nozzle, and use only forward strokes.
Stair Cleaning
A stair cleaning handle has been designed for ease in
using your cleaner on stairs. With handle in operating
position, place fingers under edge of stair cleaning
handle and guide cleaner with other hand on upper
handle (Fig.4/5).
