AGITATOR CLEANING
To maintain efficient cleaning, the agitator
must be kept free of carpet fiber, string, or
hair build-up. After every 7 to 10 uses,
unplug and turn vacuum cleaner over and
check agitator for fiber and hair build-up.
Use scissors to remove any build-up entan­
gled around the agitator.
CLOG REMOVAL
Always follow all safety precautions when per­
forming maintenance to the vacuum cleaner.
^WARNING
Electrical Shock Or Personal Injury
Hazard
Disconnect electrical supply before
performing maintenance to the unit.
Failure to do so could result in
electrical shock or personal injury
from the vacuum cleaner suddenly
starting.
If the vacuum cleaner does not seem to have
adequate suction, first check if the dust bag
is full or if a filter is clogged. See DUST BAG
REPLACEMENT sections.
If the dust bag and filter areas are free of
clogs, check the extension hose. Rotate the
extension hose release lever counterclock­
wise to release extension hose.
Remove the lower end of the extension hose
from the wand holder by grasping the hose
collar, twisting, and pulling straight up.
Plug in the vacuum cleaner and turn it on.
Stretch the extension hose to maximum
length and then allow the hose to return to
its natural length.
Re-insert the hose into the opening on the
body from which it was removed. Press firmly
to assure connection. Rotate hose release
lever clockwise to the locked position.
If the dust bag, filter areas and the hose
areas are free of clogs, disconnect the noz­
zle hose from the wand holder and check the
nozzle for clogging.

DO NOT place hands or feet under­
neath the unit at any time.

tions in the AGITATOR CLEANING section.
