Operating Instructions
This new ORECK Upright is one of the finest, fastest, and strongest units in its class. You’ll love the way it cleans,
gets under things, and it’s SO lightweight and easy to use.
The following are a few simple suggestions regarding its operation:
1. When inserting a new disposable dust bag -FIRST PUFF OUT and OPEN THE BAG.
2. When the disposable dust bag is full, REPLACE IT.
3. If at any time the machine does not pick up properly or makes an unusual noise, STOP OPERATION and service.
4. Although your upright will pick up pins, paper clips, and other small objects, it is recommended that these be
removed from the floor before you vacuum. Failure to do so may result in permanent damage to the motor
suction fan and its housing.
5. WARNING: Do not use your vacuum cleaner on damp or wet surfaces. This will cause damage to the vacuum
cleaner and is dangerous to the user. Damage caused by use on wet or damp surfaces is not covered under warranty.
6. For optimal performance, replace the belt every 6 months.
7. Check the disposable filter dust bag at least once a month.
8. DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner over the cord. The revolving brush could damage the cord.
9. Use caution when vacuuming over area rug edges and fringe.
Align slot in handle tube with tab in connector. Insert the handle tube into connector. Tighten collar at base of
handle tube onto the connector until it locks, “snaps”.
Snap cord assembly into the cord clip located on the left side of the collar. Leave excess cord at the power head
to allow movement.
Operating the U7000
Make sure the Disposable Odor Fighting dust bag is in place. DO NOT operate the cleaner without a dust bag.
