MATETM should be pushed straight away
from you and pulled straight back., At the
end of each pull stroke, the direction of the
POWER-MATE TM should be changed to
point into the next section to be cleaned,
This pattern shoutd be continued across the
rug with slow, gliding motions,
NOTE: Fast,
jerky strokes do
not provide
complete clean-
ingo
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,
Suction
Control
Carpeted stairs need to be vacuumed reg-
utarlyo For best cleaning results, fully close
the suction control
Personal Injury Hazard

stairs, if it falls, personal injury, or
property damage could result.
For best cleaning results, keep the airflow
passage open, Check each assembly area
in HOW YOUR VACUUM WORKS occasion-
ally for clogs, Unplug from outlet before
checking.
To prevent tip over, never leave
POWER-MATE TM on or in the upright
position.Turning the handle to one
side will make the POWER-MATE TM
more stable and less likely to tip
over.
For best deep down cleaning, use the XLO
setting_ However, you may need to raise the
height to make some jobs easier, such as
scatter rugs and some deep pile carpets,
and to prevent the vacuum cleaner from
shutting off, Suggested settings are:
HI - Shag, deep pile, or scatter rugs
MED - Medium to deep pileo
LO - Low to medium pite_
XLO - Most carpets and bare floors_
