TurboBrush

Use rotating brush action for small areas such as stairs and upholstery.

Note: Press gently when using the TurboBrush to gain maximum cleaning. Too much pressure could cause the brush to stop rotating.

Combination brush

Use longer soft bristles for dusting.

Remove long bristle portion and use shorter stiff bristles when agitation is needed to remove debris.

Crevice tool

Use in tight narrow spaces

Telescoping extension wand

Use with desired attachment for a longer reach. To extend the wand, twist the collar to “Unlock” and push away from you. Twist the collar to “Lock” to lock into place. To retract, twist to unlock, pull toward you and twist to relock.

All available items may not be included with your model. Other tools are available; to order, please refer to page 19.
