neck.

• Starting at the guide

on the power nozzle

neck, thread the

power cord through

the guides on the

back of the wand.

• Insert the plug on the end

of the cord through the plug

holder at the top of the wand.

This step may be easier with

the wand fully extended.

Attaching the hose

• Locate a vacuum port and lift the

port lid. Insert the hose into the port.

For models with a power cord, it is

necessary to plug the power cord into

an electrical outlet.

• Insert the hose handle into the plug at

the top of the wand.

Using the power nozzle

• Turn on the power nozzle by pushing

the on/off switch located on the hose

handle. Release and lower the wand by

pressing the handle release pedal on

the left rear side of the power nozzle.

Removing / Inserting the wand from

the power nozzle

• Removing the wand from the power

nozzle allows you to use accessory

tools for baseboard or ceiling cleaning.

• Turn the power nozzle off by pushing

the on/off switch located on the hose

handle.

• Push the wand extension button to

collapse the wand to its shortest height.

• Unthread the power cord from the guide

on the power nozzle neck and from the

guides on the back of the wand.

• Gently pull the plug from the plug holder

at the top of the wand.

• To reinsert the wand into the power

nozzle, repeat the steps for assembling

the wand.

Adjusting the wand

• The telescopic wand is easily adjustable

so you can choose any wand length

necessary for your cleaning task. Push

the wand extension button to extend

the wand or to collapse it to its shortest

height for easy storage.

Operating the Power Nozzle

Carpet height adjustment

• Your power nozzle has six different

settings to clean a variety of carpet

types and floor surfaces. To adjust

the carpet height setting of the power

nozzle, press the pedal located on the

right rear side of the power nozzle (see

diagram). Each press of this pedal will

adjust the height to the next carpet

height position.

• To determine which setting you are

currently on, look through the height

indicator window on the top of the unit

(see diagram). You will see one of the six

settings detailed below:

Setting: Intended Use:

1. XHI Very plush carpet

2. HI Plush carpet

3. Auto Standard carpet thickness

or bare floors

4. MED Medium pile carpet

5. LO Low pile carpet

6. XLO Indoor / outdoor carpet

Carpet height adjustment notes:

• When using the power nozzle, start on

the “auto” setting. If pushing the power

nozzle forward feels sluggish or hard

to push, then adjust to a higher setting

(i.e. HI or XHI). If the power nozzle

feels very easy to push, you may want

to lower the power nozzle for more

effective cleaning. The “Auto” setting is

the recommended setting for bare floor

surfaces (i.e. tile, vinyl, wood).

IMPORTANT: Before performing any

maintenance on the power nozzle, always

disconnect the hose from the vacuum

inlet and unplug the power cord, if your

wand.

Your power nozzle may need maintenance

on occasion to keep it operating in

peak condition. Listed below are a few

maintenance procedures that can be

performed by you or your retailer.

by rst unscrewing the two bottom plate

screws located by the rear wheels (see

diagram) and pull the brushroll out.

• To reinstall the brushroll, place the

brushroll back into the unit (make sure

the belt is attached properly).

• Insert the belt cover guard and place

the metal bottom plate back onto the

unit (insert the front end of the bottom

plate rst).

• Reinsert the two bottom plate screws

and secure.

Maintenance and Care

Replacing the power nozzle belt

• To replace the power nozzle belt, you

“Removing the brushroll”). Locate and

discard broken belt.

• To install a new belt, locate the power

nozzle motor pulley and loop the belt

around it (see diagram).

• Place the other end of the belt around

the brushroll making sure the belt

is seated in the “belt groove” of the

brushroll (see diagram).

• Insert the brushroll back into the

brushroll tray and place the belt guard

back into position.

• Place the metal bottom plate back on

to the unit (insert the front end of the

bottom plate rst). Reinsert the two

bottom plate screws and secure.

Problem Solving Guide

Power nozzle warning light

• Your power nozzle comes equipped

with a circuit breaker safety system that

protects it from a jammed power nozzle

situation. Common items that cause

jammed brushrolls include socks,

excessive threads, corners of area

rugs, etc. The warning indicator light on

top of the unit (see diagram) will change

from green to red should a jammed

brushroll condition occur.

If the circuit breaker trips:

• Turn o the power nozzle, disconnect

the hose from the vacuum inlet and

unplug the power cord, if your model

has one.

• Remove the object preventing the

brushroll from turning.

• Locate the circuit breaker switch on the

back of the power nozzle and press it

to reset the breaker (see diagram).

• When the unit is turned back on,

the warning light should be green

and ready to go. If the breaker trips

again, repeat steps a-c to correct the

problem. If this does not correct the

problem, contact your Authorized

Retailer for further assistance.

Replacing the brushstrips

• You have the ability to replace the

brushstrips without replacing the entire

brushroll. It’s recommended that the

brushstrips be replaced every other

year so that your nozzle maintains

maximum cleaning performance.

• A variety of brushstrips are available

depending on the type of carpet you

own. Please ask your retailer about

which brushstrip is right for your

cleaning application.
