Height adjustment
There are seven height settings available for
various floor surfaces. Turn the dial on the foot of
the cleaner to the desired setting.
Lowest setting – for low pile carpet or bare
floors. To pick up debris it may be necessary to
move up one setting.
Medium settings – for medium pile carpet.
high setting – for high pile and most shag carpet.
note: for optimal carpet cleaning
performance, adjust to the lowest practical
setting. If your cleaner is difficult to push,
adjust to the next higher setting.
If the dial is difficult to turn, tilt the cleaner
back slightly to take the weight off the foot while
turning.
Special tools
your vacuum is not only a powerful floor vacuum
cleaner, it’s also a versatile stairs and above floor
vacuum when you select one of the special tools.
note: The tools can be used with the
vacuum in the Upright Position or with the
Detachable Canister.
1. Detach the vacuum hose by grasping the
hose grip and lifting to separate from the
hose grip base.
2. Attach tools by firmly pushing onto vacuum
hose or telescoping extension wand.
Combination dusting brush/upholstery tool:
Two types of cleaning tools are included in one

tion and push away from you. Twist the collar to the

Before cleaning under
low furniture, check
area first for objects
that might harm the
unit or block the
Vacuum Hose.
