aintenance and care

Clearing clogs

low suction or poor pickup may be due to a clog

in the vacuum cleaner. If you notice a change in

the sound of the motor, check for clogs.
1.
Unplug the vacuum from electrical outlet.

2. Empty dirt container.

3. Check upper tank for build up or clogs.

4. If you notice a clog in the upper tank,

remove the separator plate (see section

"Cleaning the Upper Tank" on page 16).

5. Grasp the curved wand and separate it from

the hose wand base. Check for a clog in the

base, the wand or in the hose.

notE: on select units that have the clean

filter indicator, when the indicator reads

black, there is a clog in the hose which is

diminishing suction power. Remove the clog

in the hose to restore full suction power.

6. Remove the Twist ‘n Snap hose from the vacuum

by turning to the

right. Straighten the hose and

unclog with a long, narrow object such as a

broom handle.

7. If you notice debris or dirt clogged in the

connecting tube, remove it by pulling it out at the

top and lifting the tube out. Clean the tube of any

debris and clear any possible clog from the port

to the pre-motor filter. Reattach tube by first

installing the base and than push in the top of

the tube.

8. If the clog persists, follow the instructions for

checking the rotating floor brush and drive

belt on page 12 and inspect the air

passageway for obstructions.
