WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.

IMPORTANT:

On plush and new carpets, stufng may occur inside the intake tube and the

lower tube assembly. This is due to excessive fuzz and loose cuttings in the carpet. Stufng

could occur for the rst few cleanings until all the loose material is removed. Due to the

high efciency of the vacuum, many older carpets will cause stufng when the vacuum is

rst used on them. If your vacuum does not pick up properly, or makes unusual noise and the

outer bag does not uff up or balloon open, follow these steps:

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.

Twist lower collar counterclockwise to slide up. Pull tube out of base. Check for

blockage. If blockage is in the tube, remove with a coat hanger.

If tube is not blocked, look into fan housing. Remove debris with long-nose pliers, a

screwdriver or coat hanger.
