Your Power Drive Cleaner has been completely

assembled at our factory. It is ready for use with-

out further assembly or adjustment.

THREE POSITION HANDLE Storage, operating

and low (for reaching under low furniture). The

handle can be lowered by stepping on the pedal

at the left rear of cleaner.

The handle should always be in storage position

when cleaning tools are used.

The Hoover Company 1969

For greater convenience and ease of operation,

this Deluxe cleaner provides you with an ex-

clusive Automatic Power Drive feature. The

Automatic Power Drive Control is built into the

handle of the cleaner. This automatic drive

propels the cleaner forward and backward at

a variable rate of speed controlled entirely

by (you) the operator. (Fig. 1)

Forward

To operate the cleaner in the

forward position using the A-utomatic Power

Drive, push the handle grip forward. (Fig. 1)

Notice that the cleaner moves in a forward

direction with little effort. The speed at which

the cleaner moves is controlled entirely by

(you) the operator.

Reverse -To operate the cleaner in the reverse

position using the Automatic Power Drive, gently

pull the handle grip and guide the cleaner toward

you. The cleaner moves both forward and back-

ward with the same ease when using the Automatic

Power Drive feature.

NOTE: For best results guide the cleaner gently

at first until you have adjusted to the ease of

operating the cleaner. The Power Drive feature

is in operation only when the motor is turned on.

To move the cleaner without operating the motor

use the transport button (disengage drive) accord-

ing to the following instructions:

TO TRANSPORT

Your Hoover Power Drive Cleaner can be transportel

by two (2) methods:

1. Use the convenient carrying handle for carrying

your cleaner up and down stairs or when lifting

the cleaner from one surface to another. Lift it

as shown in Fig. 2

2. To roll your cleaner from one room to another,

use the convenient button located on top of the

handle grip (Fig. 3). Press the button and slide

the handle grip up or down the handle until the

button drops flush with the handle grip. With

the button depressed, the cleaner is in the trans-

port or neutral position, with the drive mechanisr

disengaged.

While holding the button depressed, the cleaner

may be pushed to the desired location as shown

in Fig. 4. When the button is pressed in, the

Automatic Power Drive gears are locked into

neutral position and the cleaner can easily be

transported.

THIS IS THE “HEART” OF YOUR NEW

HOOVER POWER DRIVE CLEANER

Your new Hoover Power Drive is the most

powerful upright cleaner ever built.

To handle the wide range of pile depth of

modern carpets and rugs, two (2) adjustment

features have been provided. These features

are Automatic Rug Adjustment and Suction

Adjustment as explained in the following

paragraphs. When used properly, they will

assure the best cleaning efficiency and ease

of operation.

Automatic Rug Adjustment. The nozzle of

your cleaner is designed to float on top of the

carpet and thereby adjust automatically to the

correct carpet height for all known carpets. No

manual nozzle adjustment is ever necessary.

Suction Adjustment For Carpets and Rugs.

Set the dial on the back of the cleaner to

MEDIUM. (Fig. 1) This will be the correct

setting for the majority of rugs. On very

thin or loosely woven carpeting, it may be

necessary to move the dial toward the LOW

position.

For indoor/outdoor, sculptured or multi-

level rugs, it may be necessary to move the

dial toward HIGH for most effective cleaning.

NOTE: Be certain dial indicator points to

desired suction

not to the neutral area

between carpet and tool suction. Operate

cleaner on dry carpet only.

Suction Adjustment For Cleaning Tools.

(Fig. 2) The handle of the cleaner must be in

storage position (See Page 2) when cleaning

tools are used. When the handle is in this

position, the nozzle is raised automatically

and the agitator does not come in contact

with the rug. The Automatic Power Drive

is disengaged and the cleaner will not

self-

propel.

Attach hose and cleaning tools (Page 5). Set

Suction Control Dial to HIGH under TOOL

Suction for most cleaning. For cleaning drap-

eries and delicate fabrics, move dial toward

LOW.

The dial can be placed at HIGH, MEDIUM,

LOW or any space between these markings.

E CLEANING

TOOLS

(See Page 4 for setting Suction Control Dial

when using tools).

TUFFLEX HOSE Double vinyl reinforced

with nylon mesh for long, trouble-free life.

The light flexible hose has a vinyl tab, so

it can be hung on the cleaner or on a hook

in a closet.

TELESCOPING WAND When you require

extra length for cleaning bare floors or

hard-to-reach places, attach the telescoping

extension wand. To lengthen the wand,

press down on the plastic latch and extend

wand until it locks in place. To shorten,

use opposite procedure. (Fig. 2.)

FLOOR BRUSH For hard surface floors

and carpeted stairs.

UPHOLSTERY NOZZLE For upholstered

furniture, draperies, tapestries, mattresses,

clothing, automobile interiors, stairs.

DUSTING BRUSH For carved furniture

table tops, books, lamps, light fixtures,

Venetian blinds, registers, baseboards.

CREVICE TOOL For upholstered furni-

ture, edges of wall-to-wall carpeting,

radiators, dresser drawers.

Connect Hose To Cleaner, Insert hose con-

nector in opening below dial. Turn hose connector

to either direction until it locks in place. (Fig. 3.)

TOConnect Tools. To either the telescoping wand

or hose, push the attachment into place making

sure the button on the attachment is locked in

place. To release, press down on plastic spring

latch and remove. (Fig. 4.)

To Store Tools. The vinyl tool kit has been

designed so the tools can be packed inside and

the hose attached, by strap, on outside. The kit

has two slots located near the top for ease in

hanging on the cover latch of the cleaner or on a

hook in the closet. (Fig. 5.)

While moving furniture, the hose can be conven-

iently hung on the handle. (Fig. 6.)

To Clean Tools. To clean the hose, wipe off dirt

with a cloth dampened with a liquid detergent.

Use a damp cloth to remove the detergent. Clean-

ing tools can be washed in warm water with a

detergent. Rinse and let dry before using.

HELPFUL HINTS

Don’t Pick Up Tacks Your cleaner is powerful.

It can pick up tacks, pins, paper clips, etc. How-

ever, hard sharp objects should not be picked

up by the cleaner. They may clog or damage the

hose and the throw-away bag.

Take Care of The Cord Wind it loosely, on the

cover latch and knob on Suction Control Dial,

to avoid strain. Snap clip-on plug onto cord. To

remove cord, turn cover latch. (See inset). Don’t

run cleaner over the cord

it may damage the

insulation.

The Bag Indicator (“CHECK BAG”) located on

the front of the cleaner, makes it convenient for

you to know when the disposable bag should

be changed. The indicator will normally disappear

when the motor is turned on and the

Dial-A-

Matic

is used for cleaning carpets. If the “CHECK

BAG” indicator appears when the cleaner is being

used on carpets, the cleaner is not operating

satisfactorily. You should:

1. Replace bag. (Fig. 3, Page 7) In some cases the

bag may not be filled to capacity; but due to

variation in size and type of dirt particles, the

bag has ceased to filter satisfactorily.

2. Check secondary filter. (Fig. 3)

3. Check nozzle hose. (Fig.

Page 7)

NOTE: The “CHECK BAG” indicator may be

visible when cleaning tools are used. This does

not necessarily mean that the cleaner is not

operating satisfactorily. This can be checked

by temporarily turning the dial to CARPET

SUCTION position and checking the indicator.

If it disappears, the bag does not need to

be replaced.

The Secondary Filter protects the motor from

dirt. Before installing a new bag, check filter.

Dirt spilled in the bag housing will accumulate

on the filter and may restrict motor performance.

To clean filter, remove wire holder and lift out

filter. Tap against the opening for receiving/the

cleaning tools with the suction dial set for

cleaning tool use. Replace in bag housing and

secure with holder.

ose on the cleaner carries the dirt

from the nozzle to the throw-away bag.

the

hose becomes obstructed (which may happen if

the bag is overfilled), remove it and clear it. Pull

the hose end from the bottom of the bag housing

and unscrew hose end by turning in a clockwise

direction. Turn cleaner over, remove bottom

plate (Fig. 1, Page 8) and pull hose from cleaner.

Clean hose and reinsert it in the cleaner.

NOTE: ALWAYS DISCONNECT CORD FROM

ELECTRICAL OUTLET BEFORE REPLACING

PARTS.

THE THROW-AWAY BAG

It is imperative that you use only genuine Hoover

Throw-A way Bags

mcide

by The Hoover

Company. Genuine Hoover Bags can be identified

by the Hoover Medallion. These bags are made

from a special material which is scientifically

formulated to filter out dust while allowing air

to flow through freely.

Where To Buy Bags. From your local Authorized

Hoover Dealer or from Hoover Factory Service

Stations listed on the white insert. WHEN ORDER-

ING THE THROW-AWAY BAGS, BE SURE TO

MENTION THE MODEL OF YOUR CLEANER.

To Replace Throw-Away Bags.

Tip cleaner over,

resting handle on the floor. Open the bag cover

of the cleaner by turning latch in either direction.

Lift bag cover. Hold throw-away bag by card-

board collar, twist outward, and remove. Discard

used bag.

To attach new throw-away bag, hold bag with

cardboard collar down and with arrows pointing

toward front of cleaner. Push hole in cardboard

firmly over tube, twisting until bag is secure.

Be sure that throw-away bag is not extending

outside of cover and that cover is in proper

position on the gasket before latching.

THE BELTS

There are two belts on your Hoover cleaner. The

belts control the speed of the agitator and the

power drive pulley and are important for the

efficient operation of your cleaner. Because of

this, when buying new belts, you should always

insist on genuine Hoover belts. Some other

belts on the market, not manufactured under

the Hoover design and quality controls, do not

operate the agitator or Power Drive correctly

and may damage your Hoover cleaner.

When To Replace Belts. Check from time to time

to be sure the belts are in good condition. If

they are stretched or cut, they should be replaced.

To Replace Belts:

1. Remove cord from electrical outlet.

2. Turn cleaner over -- remove metal plate on

bottom of cleaner by pushing latches toward

the outside of cleaner. (Fig. 1) Lift plate to

release it from clips.

3. There are two belts as shown in Figure 2.

The larger belt is connected to the

agitator.To

remove the large belt, push latches that hold

agitator in and toward center of cleaner until

they are free. (Fig. 3). Lift out agitator and

remove old belt.

4. The smaller belt is attached to the power

drive pulley. (Fig. 2). To replace the smaller

belt, it is necessary to first remove the larger

belt. NOTE: It may not be necessary to change

both belts at one time.

5. Place new smaller belt over power drive

pulley and motor pulley with smooth side of

belt next to pulleys. (Fig. 2). Next, place new

larger belt over motor pulley, then over agitator.

6. Replace agitator and latch it in position.

7. Make sure that large belt is in center of

pulley, and free of agitator mountings and

latch. Turn agitator by hand to be sure that

belt is in proper position in motor pulley

groove.

8. Replace bottom plate. (Fig. 5). Make sure

that clips enter into the recesses on the cleaner

bottom plate. Check to see that latches are

pushed back and will not be covered by plate.

(Fig. 6). Place plate in position and latch

securely. Turn agitator by hand to be sure that

belt is in proper position on pulley.

THE BRUSHES

When brushes

a&worn

and bristles do not touch

the edge of a card held across the nozzle, they

should be replaced. Always replace both brushes

at the same time to maintain cleaning efficiency.

To Replace Brushes. Remove bottom plate, belt

and agitator following directions given on Page 8.

1. Turn end plates of agitator in opposite direc-

tions until one plate comes off.
