positions;

using cleaning tools;

operating posi-

tion

for general operation on carpet

and floors;

for reaching under low

furniture. Step on handle release lever
to lower handle.

Transporting cleaner

er back on rear wheels. Push forward.

Settings

For maximum cleaning performance,

the following carpet height settings are
recommended.

Lowest setting:

for bare floors and all

types of carpet

Note:

If the cleaner is difficult to push,

slide knob to the next higher setting.

where easier pushing effort is desired,
while maintaining good cleaning perfor-
mance.

Handle position

For ease in sliding knob, place handle in
the upright position and tilt cleaner
backward.

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) 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.

Edge cleaning

Special edge groomers are provided on
both sides of the nozzle to remove dirt in
carpet near baseboards and furniture.

Guide either side of nozzle parallel to
edge of carpet or furniture.
