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) as shown 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.
Stair cleaning
A stair cleaning handle has been de-
signed for ease in using your cleaner on
stairs. With handle in operating position,
place fingers under edge of stair clean-
ing handle and guide cleaner with other
hand on upper handle.
As an alternative, you may use the hose
and powered hand tool or furniture noz-
zle for stair cleaning. Clean from bottom
to top.
When using cleaning tools, the agita-
tor will continue to rotate .
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury or
unnecessary wear to carpet, and to
prevent the cleaner from falling,
always place it at bottom of stairs.
How to attach tool
cover
The tool cover is designed with a
“break-away” feature which allows it to
snap free if it is pushed open too far.
To reattach, align hinges of cover with
slots on sides of tool storage area.
Push cover down to secure in place.
Cleaning tools
Tools allow for cleaning surfaces above
the floor and for reaching hard to clean
areas.
The cleaner is ready for tool use when

CAUTION: Agitator continues to
rotate while cleaner handle is in
upright position. Avoid tipping clean-
er or setting it on furniture, fringed
area rugs or carpeted stairs during
tool use.

tion.
