7. Change the disposable filter dust bag at least once a
month—even if it is not full! The collected dust in the dust
bag can cause odor, attract moisture, act as a breeding
area and can affect the efficiency of the cleaner.
8. DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner over cord. The revolving
brush could damage the cord.
9. Use caution when vacuuming over area rug edges & fringe.
Disposable Paper Filter Dust Bags
Disposable paper filter dust bags play a very important role in
the efficiency of your ORECK vacuum cleaner. The purpose of
the filter bag is to trap dirt, but at the same time it must be
porous enough to allow air to pass through. If the filter bag
becomes clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner and
cleaning cannot take place, regardless of the cleaner’s power.
Increase the CLEANING POWER of your cleaner by changing
the bag often.
To keep your cleaner operating at maximum efficiency, change
the dust bag frequently. DO NOT FILL ABOVE THE LINE
INDICATED ON THE DUST BAG.
Be sure the disposable paper filter dust bag is installed properly.
All paper dust bags are not the same. Your ORECK disposable
dust bags have been designed to be used with the ORECK
cleaner. Using bags other than genuine ORECK disposable bags
will affect the cleaning ability of your cleaner and could cause
damage to it.
The Belt
The belt on your vacuum cleaner controls the speed of the
revolving brush and is very important for the effective operation
of the cleaner. If the belt becomes stretched or cut, it will cause
the revolving brush to stop completely or slow down. See
instructions in the manual for replacing belt.
An extra belt is stored in the baseplate of your cleaner. When
buying replacement belts, use ONLY ORECK genuine belts. Belts
other than ORECK belts will not operate the revolving brush
correctly and may create undue stress which will cause damage
to the motor and brush bearings. Using belts other than ORECK
belts will void the warranty.
Lubrication
The vacuum cleaner motor bearings are factory lubricated and
sealed. Further lubrication is not required.
General Cleaner Care
At least once a month, check for
and remove excessive lint, string
or hair from revolving brush.
Wipe the outside of the cleaner
with a damp cloth. Also, clean
the connector deflector assembly
area, base of cleaner and fan
housing area. If there is dust in
the outer bag, vacuum it or
shake it out.
A little preventative maintenance
will keep your cleaner looking
new and will ensure continued
cleaning effectiveness.
CAUTION—Wood Floors, Soft (Vinyl, Asphalt Tile, etc.)
Floor Surfaces and Polished Floor Finishes
Use floor and floor finish manufacturer’s recommended methods
of cleaning. The metal strip on the base of the cleaner could be
damaged if used on concrete or abrasive surfaces, and,
therefore, cause damage to wood floors, soft (vinyl, asphalt tile,
etc.) floor surfaces and polished floor finishes. The roller brush
may also scuff very soft finishes. Do not operate the unit while in
the upright and locked position. Do not let the unit run while in
any one stationary position for any period of time. Keep the unit
moving while in operation.
Celoc® Hypo-Allergenic Filter System
The CELOC SMMS outer bag of your vacuum cleaner is high
filtration medical material designed to filter the smallest of dust
particles. It is important the inside of the outer bag be cleaned.
Turning the outer bag inside out, vacuum the inside of the outer
bag or hand wash with warm water and then let the bag air
dry. For best results, the CELOC SMMS outer bag should be
replaced once a year.
The CELOC layered disposable inner dust
bag must be replaced once a month even if it is not full. Change it
more often if it is used in extremely dirty areas. Increase the
cleaning power of your vacuum by changing the bag often.
