Handle adjustments

The handle has three positions: Up- right for storage and when using attachments. Operating for general operation on carpet and floors. Low for reaching under low furniture.

Adjustment for carpet pile height

The cleaning of carpet and rugs takes place at the nozzle. This is the opening at the bottom of the cleaner where the agitator is located.

It is necessary to raise and lower the nozzle for various carpet pile heights.

The four positions are Low, Normal,

High and Shag.

Select the proper nozzle adjustment by tilting the cleaner forward and adjusting the lever until it “clicks” into position.

For best results the lever is conven- iently adjusted by hand.

Select the adjustment for the carpet pile height according to the chart below.
