Replace the Squeegee - Models: RSL4, RSL5 and RSL5C
If your squeegee splits or begins to look worn, simply remove the worn squeegee from its track and slide a new one into the track (figure 26). If you have trouble installing the new squeegee, please see your Authorized Retailer.
Reset the Circuit Breaker
Models: RSL1A, RSL3, RSL4,
RSL1AC and RSL3C
Your vacuum features a circuit breaker to protect the machine against damage due to a surge in the electrical current. Electrical surging can be a result of, though not limited to a jammed motor fan.
Should your SupraLite vacuum cleaner experience a jammed brushroll with the circuit breaker tripping, first turn the vacuum off and unplug the unit. Inspect the brushroll by removing the bottom plate (see “How to Remove Bottom Plate”) and remove any debris which may be causing the jam. Reinstall the bottom plate (see “How to Install Bottom Plate”), reset the circuit breaker by pressing the Circuit Breaker Reset Button (figure 27), plug in power cord, and turn unit on. If the unit fails to turn on, return it to an Authorized Riccar Retailer for service.
