Transporting cleaner
To move your cleaner from room to room, put handle in upright position, tilt cleaner back on rear wheels and push forward.
Carrying cleaner
The cleaner can also be moved by using the carrying handle, located on the top of the dirt cup.
Handle positions
The handle of your cleaner has three positions; upright for storage and when using cleaning tools; operating position for general operation on carpet and floors; low for reaching under low furniture. Step on handle release pedal to lower handle.

Carpet height |
adjustment |
The cleaning of carpet and rugs takes place at the nozzle (A).
When it is necessary to raise and lower the nozzle for various carpet pile heights, place handle in upright position and turn the nozzle control knob (B) to the desired setting.
The nozzle will not move into the adjusted position until the cleaner handle is lowered to the operating position.
Settings |
For maximum cleaning perfor- mance, the following carpet height settings are recommended:
•Lowest setting: for all types of carpet and hard surface flooring.
Note: If the cleaner is difficult to push, turn knob to the next higher setting.
•Higher settings: for very deep pile carpet, where easier pushing effort is desired, while maintaining good cleaning performance.
Cleaning lightweight flexible rugs
Stand on one end of rug and move cleaner toward other end or edge. Before reaching edge, push down on handle. This will lift up the nozzle (front of cleaner) as shown and will prevent rug from clinging to cleaner. Continue to lift up nozzle so that when you have reached the edge, it is completely off the rug. Move cleaner back to start again, lower nozzle, and use only forward strokes.
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury or unnecessary wear to carpet, and to prevent the cleaner from falling, always place it at bottom of stairs.
Stair cleaning
Use the hose and power hand tool for stair cleaning. Clean from bottom to top.
When using cleaning tools, the agitator will continue to rotate.
