the small pedal on the rear of the

HEIGHT SETTINGS.
Attention: Refer to your carpet manufac­
turers cleaning recommendations. Some
more delicate carpets may require that they
be vacuumed with the PowerMate agitator
turned off to prevent carpet damage.
5. Select a switch posi­
tion on the handle.
FLOOR - turns on the canister motor only.
CARPET - turns on both the canister and
the PowerMate motors.
NOTE - When this switch is in the FLOOR
position, the headlight

since no electricity flows to the PowerMate.
VACUUMING TIPS
Suggested sweeping pattern.
For best cleaning action, the PowerMate
should be pushed straight away from you
and pulled straight back. At the end of each
pull stroke, the direction of the PowerMate
should be changed to point into the next
section to be cleaned. This pattern should
be continued across the carpet with slow,
gliding motions.
NOTE: Fast,
jerky strokes do
not provide
complete clean­
ing.
The hose swivel
allows the hose to
turn without moving
the canister. This is
helpful for cleaning in
small areas. Check
hose for twisting
before pulling canister.
▲ CAUTION
Product Damage Hazard
Use care if the PowerMate and wand is
left In the upright position as it may tip
