Use
While vacuuming
The vacuum cleaner can also stand on its end for vacuuming stairs, drapes, etc.
To prevent static electricity your hand must touch the metal inlay on the underside of the vacuum handpiece. Be certain to continuously touch this inlay when vacuuming fine dust, flour or sawdust as these materials are more likely to create a static discharge. To further prevent static discharge while vacuuming, pull the vacuum along by the hose with one hand while continuing to hold the handpiece in the other hand.
Adjusting the suction
The suction power can be adjusted depending on the type of flooring. By reducing the suction power the floor brush can be pushed easier.
