VACUUMING TIPS
Suggested sweeping pattern.
I
For best cleaning action, the PowerMate should be pushed straight away from you and pulled straight back. At the end of each pull stroke, the direction of the PowerMate should be changed to point into the next section to be cleaned. This pattern should be continued across the carpet with slow, gliding motions°

Use care if the PowerMate and wand is left in the upright position as it may tip over easily. Property damage can occur if tipped.
NOTE: Fast, jerky strokes do not provide complete clean- ing.

turn without moving the canister. This is
helpful for cleaning in small areas. Check hose for twisting before pulling canister.
