CAUTION:
The Rotating Floor Brush continues to rotate while tools are in use. To reduce the risk of injury from moving parts, always move the vacuum cleaner with the Carrying Handle at the back of the cleaner. Always place vacuum cleaner on floor with Handle in Upright position when using tools. Never place your fingers under the vacuum cleaner when it is running. Never place Powerfoot on furniture or uneven surfaces. Do not place vacuum cleaner close enough to objects to pull them into rotating brush.
Tip:
Hair, string and small objects can block the Vacuum Hose or Tools. Check them occasionally for obstructions. See Troubleshooting Guide for instructions.
