For greater convenience and ease of operation,
this Deluxe cleaner provides you with an ex-
clusive Automatic Power Drive feature. The
Automatic Power Drive Control is built into the
handle of the cleaner. This automatic drive
propels the cleaner forward and backward at
a variable rate of speed controlled entirely
by (you) the operator. (Fig. 1)
Forward
-
To operate the cleaner in the
forward position using the A-utomatic Power
Drive, push the handle grip forward. (Fig. 1)
Notice that the cleaner moves in a forward
direction with little effort. The speed at which
the cleaner moves is controlled entirely by
(you) the operator.
Reverse -To operate the cleaner in the reverse
position using the Automatic Power Drive, gently
pull the handle grip and guide the cleaner toward
you. The cleaner moves both forward and back-
ward with the same ease when using the Automatic
Power Drive feature.
NOTE: For best results guide the cleaner gently
at first until you have adjusted to the ease of
operating the cleaner. The Power Drive feature
is in operation only when the motor is turned on.
To move the cleaner without operating the motor
use the transport button (disengage drive) accord-
ing to the following instructions:
