Motor Filter and Oreck Fresh Air®

Scent Cartridge Replacement

WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.

The Motor Filter located at the back of the power head should be replaced every 2 months. The Scent Disk should be replaced every month when changing the inner filter bag.

fig. 27 Press two locking tabs on cartridge cover and remove the cover.

fig. 28 Remove the cartridge holder by lifting on tab at top of holder.

fig. 29 Remove old filter or scent disk from holder. Replace filter or scent disk and reinsert holder.

Replace cover by aligning tabs on cover with slots in housing and pressing the cover in place until cover tabs lock.

Using an Oreck Fresh Air® Tab

fig. 30 Your ORECK XL7 vacuum cleaner has a special Oreck FRESH AIR® tab pocket. This pocket is located inside the outer bag in the area where the disposable paper bag attaches to the intake tube. Insert tablet in pocket if desired.

fig. 33 To reassemble, check O-ring on tube, and replace if damaged. Replace tube by first lining up slot at base of tube with tab inside fan housing. Insert tube and push down until the tube is seated. Make sure O-ring is in place against fan housing opening.

Replace and tighten collar until collar locking tabs are locked in place. Reattach bag spring (fig. 32).

fig. 36 Many times blockage occurs due to a full dust bag causing dirt to

back down the air flow system. When that happens, the blockage will be at the top of the system, starting in the area where the dust bag connects to the connector assembly.

NOTE: If the above actions do not correct the problem, contact an Oreck authorized service center or call the customer service center

at: 0845 603 0153.

Stuffing or Blockage

IMPORTANT: On plush and new carpets, stuffing may occur inside the intake tube and the lower tube assembly. This is due to excessive fuzz and loose cuttings in the carpet. Stuffing could occur for the first few cleanings until all the loose material is removed. Due to the high efficiency of the cleaner, many older carpets will cause stuffing when the cleaner is first used on them. If your vacuum cleaner does not pick up properly, or makes unusual noise and the outer bag does not fluff up or balloon open, follow these steps:

WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.

fig. 31 Check for blockage at the mouth of the intake opening. If there is blockage, remove it with long-nose pliers, a screwdriver or coat hanger. If you can not reach the blockage, remove baseplate (fig. 22).

fig. 32 If the blockage is not at the base, remove lower tube. Unhook retainer spring, releasing bottom of bag.

fig. 33 Twist lower collar counterclockwise to slide up. Pull tube out of base.

fig. 34 Check for blockage. If blockage is in the tube, remove with a coat hanger.

fig. 35 If tube is not blocked, look into fan housing. Remove debris with long-nose pliers, a screwdriver or coat hanger.
