SPECIAL SEBO PRODUCT FEATURES Your SEBO AUTOMATIC X series vacuum cleaner is the most technically advanced upright vacuum cleaner in the world. Along with its excellent filtration system (99.9% to 0.3 microns], one of its most important features is its ability to „monitor“ the resistance of the brush roller against the floor, so that the proper cleaning height is consistently maintained.

Operating Instructions Starting The Machine A. Before turning on your vacuum cleaner, make sure that the vacuum handle is in its upright locked position and that you have a firm hold on the handle grip to keep the machine from moving forward. 15 1. Turn the quick release cable hook (15) to the up position by moving it to the left or right and release the cable. 2. Release the cable from the upper cable hook (26). 3. Plug in and press the switch (2) to the „I“ position.
Using the Attachments Tube, Hose & Attachments - Figures 1 & 2 The attachment tube (16) is useful for vacuuming corners and hard-to-reach areas. The handle grip (1) should be in the upright, locked position (as shown in figure 1). Grip the attachment tube handle (11), pull it up and away from the machine and stretch out the hose (12) until it locks (this locking action will prevent the hose from retracting back into the attachment tube while it is in use).

Changing the Dust Bag - Figure 7 To change the dust bag, pull the cover release flap forward (#5 on page 5) and lift the cover (7) from the dust bag housing. The cover release flap must remain in a forward „pulled-out“ position to change dust bags and lock them into place.
