THIS IS THE “HEART” OF YOUR NEWHOOVER POWER DRIVE CLEANER
Your new Hoover Power Drive is the most
powerful upright cleaner ever built.
To handle the wide range of pile depth of
modern carpets and rugs, two (2) adjustment
features have been provided. These features
are Automatic Rug Adjustment and Suction
Adjustment as explained in the following
paragraphs. When used properly, they will
assure the best cleaning efficiency and ease
of operation.
Automatic Rug Adjustment. The nozzle of
your cleaner is designed to float on top of the
carpet and thereby adjust automatically to the
correct carpet height for all known carpets. No
manual nozzle adjustment is ever necessary.
Suction Adjustment For Carpets and Rugs.
Set the dial on the back of the cleaner to
MEDIUM. (Fig. 1) This will be the correct
setting for the majority of rugs. On very
thin or loosely woven carpeting, it may be
necessary to move the dial toward the LOW
position.
For indoor/outdoor, sculptured or multi-
level rugs, it may be necessary to move the
dial toward HIGH for most effective cleaning.
NOTE: Be certain dial indicator points to
desired suction
-
not to the neutral area
between carpet and tool suction. Operate
cleaner on dry carpet only.
Suction Adjustment For Cleaning Tools.
(Fig. 2) The handle of the cleaner must be in
storage position (See Page 2) when cleaning
tools are used. When the handle is in this
position, the nozzle is raised automatically
and the agitator does not come in contact
with the rug. The Automatic Power Drive
is disengaged and the cleaner will not
self-
propel.
Attach hose and cleaning tools (Page 5). Set
Suction Control Dial to HIGH under TOOL
Suction for most cleaning. For cleaning drap-
eries and delicate fabrics, move dial toward
LOW.
The dial can be placed at HIGH, MEDIUM,
LOW or any space between these markings.
