HOW TO MAINTAIN The paper bag and filters play a very important role in the efficiency of the vacuum cleaner. The purpose of the paper bag is to trap dirt and at the same time the paper must be porous enough to allow air to pass through. If the paper bag or filters become clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner and no cleaning takes place regardless of how powerful the unit. To keep the cleaner operating at maximum efficiency, change the dust bag frequently and clean the filters as necessary.
Filters For maximum efficiency, be sure to maintain the motor filter and the final filter regularly. Motor Filter Inspect the motor filter with each disposable dust bag change. The motor filter in the bag compartment should be cleaned when necessary or about twice a year. • Open the cover and lift up on the filter. • Shake out thoroughly. HEPA Filter/Micron Filter Check the HEPA/Micron filter with each disposable dust bag change. Replace after every six bag changes or when obviously dirty. 1.
Brush Roll The brush roll turns to sweep and comb the carpet nap. Keep the brush roll free from hair and threads so it will continue cleaning. When the bristles of the brush roll no longer touch a piece of cardboard held across the bottom plate, the brush roll is ineffective because the bristles no longer touch the carpet nap. To maintain the most effective cleaning, install a new brush roll.
How to Replace Worn Belt or Light Bulb (On Some Models) CAUTION: Disconnect power cord and wands from electrical hose before replacing belt or bulb. Belt pulleys can become hot during normal use. To prevent burns, avoid touching the belt pulley when servicing the drive belt. To replace the light bulb, remove the screws marked A,B,C,D. To replace the belt, remove the screws marked 1,2,3,4. How to Replace Light Bulb 1. Flip power head over onto its top. 2.
