REMOVING CLOGS
The vacuum cleaner creates suctionthat
picks up dirt. Rapidly moving air carries //_2
the dirt to the dustbag through the airflow _,_ -'_
passages. The dust bag lets the air pass /_J /Ii
through, while it traps the dirt. _/7C__ ///
For best cleanlng results,keep the ,_J_%_'- _
airflow passage open. Check the f_,,_,_- ____ _,_
starred (*) areas occasionally ,,_//_ _'_
for clogs. Turn off and unplug .,/'f/,_L__" /\__
vacuum cleaner from outlet _';2"_- ,_/;_.I __
before checking. _ __
TO CHECK FOR CLOGS:
Check dust bag and change if full. See
DUST BAG CHANGING (page 17).
Check motor safety filter and exhaust
filter and replace if dirty. See MOTOR
SAFETY FILTERCLEANING (page 18)
and EXHAUST FILTERCHANGING
(page 19).
Check PowerMate for any dirt or debris
in the belt path area or in the agitator
area. Carefully remove any string or
debris located on the agitator or end
caps. See TO CLEAN AGITATOR (page
21).
If the vacuum cleaner still has poor
suction, do the following:
Connect the hose to the canister and
turn vacuum cleaner on. Check the end
of the hose for suction. If there is good
suction on the hose handle, there is no
clog in the hose. If the suction is bad,
remove any dirt or debris in the hose
and handle.
2. Connect hose handle to wand. Check
the end of the wand for suction. If
there is good suction at the end of the
wand, there is no clog in the wand. If
the suction is bad, remove any dirt or
debris in the wand.
3. Check PowerMate swivel. Remove any
dirt or debris.

NOT drip water on vacuum cleaner.
2. To clean exterior, or to reduce static
