SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Household Use Only

A polarized plug has one rounded prong and one straight prong.

The rounded end goes into the longest socket slot.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.

If it still does not fit, contact qualified personnel to install the proper outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.

Operating Recommendations

This new ORECK XL21 High-Speed 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		5	6
and easy to use.
The following are a few simple suggestions regarding its operation:
1.	When inserting a new disposable paper filter dust bag -FIRST PUFF OUT
	and OPEN THE BAG.
2.	When the disposable paper filter 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.REPLACE THE BELT EVERY 6 MONTHS, SCENT CARTRIDGE EVERY

	MONTH, AND MOTOR FILTER EVERY 2 MONTHS.
7.	Change the disposable paper filter dust bag at least once a month - even if it is not
	full!The collected dust in the dust bag can cause odor, attract moisture, and can
	affect the efficiency of the cleaner.
8.	DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner over the cord. The revolving brush could damage
	the cord.	7

General

Information.

The performance of your new cleaner greatly depends upon care and maintenance. The instructions in this manual will guide you in performing basic care and maintenance. To obtain the most satisfying years of service read the instructions and keep them handy for future reference.

Disposable Paper Filter Dust Bags

Disposable paper filter dust bags play a very important role in the efficiency of your ORECK vacuum cleaner. The purpose of the filter bag is to trap dirt, but at the same time it must be porous enough to allow air to pass through. If the filter bag becomes clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner and cleaning cannot take place, regardless of the cleaner’s power.

To keep your cleaner operating at maximum efficiency, change the dust bag frequently.

DO NOT FILL ABOVE THE LINE INDICATED ON THE DUST BAG.

Be sure the disposable paper filter dust bag is installed properly. Note: All paper dust bags are not the same. Your ORECK disposable dust bags have been designed to be used with the ORECK cleaner. Using bags other than genuine ORECK disposable bags will affect the cleaning ability of your cleaner and could cause damage to it.

HEPA-Celoc® Hypo-Allergenic Filter System

The HEPA-Celoc outer bag of your vacuum cleaner is high filtration medical material designed to filter the smallest of dust particles. It is important the inside of the outer bag be cleaned. Vacuum the inside of the outer bag or hand wash, turned inside out, with warm water, and air dry. If desired, the HEPA-Celoc outer bag can be replaced for renewed efficiency. The Celoc layered disposable inner dust bag must be replaced once a month even if it is not full. Change it more often if it is used in extremely dirty areas. Increase the cleaning power of your vacuum by changing the bag often.

The Belt

The belt on your vacuum cleaner controls the speed of the revolving brush and is very important for the effective operation of the cleaner. If the belt becomes stretched or cut, it will cause the revolving brush to stop completely or slow down. See instructions in the manual for replacing belt.

Note: An extra belt is stored in the baseplate of your cleaner. When buying replacement belts, use ONLY ORECK genuine belts. Belts other than Oreck belts will not operate the revolving brush correctly and may create undue stress which will cause damage to the motor and brush bearings. Using belts other than ORECK belts will void the warranty.

Motor Filter

The motor filter is used to filter tiny particles released by the motor exhaust while in operation. The motor filter is not necessary for operation but is helpful in removing contaminants from the air. Note: Motor filter should be replaced every two months for best performance.

Oreck Fresh Air® Cartridges

A fresh air cartridge adds a desired fragrance to the air while vacuuming. It is placed behind the motor filter and uses heat and air generated from the motor to spread the fragrance. Note: Cartridge should be replaced every month when filter dust bag is replaced or as desired.

Lubrication

The vacuum cleaner motor bearings are factory lubricated and sealed. Further lubrication is not required.

CAUTION

Wood Floors, Soft (Vinyl, Asphalt Tile, etc.) Floor Surfaces and Polished Floor Finishes

Use floor and floor finish manufacturer’s recommended methods of cleaning. The roller brush may also scuff very soft finishes. Do not operate the unit while in the upright and locked position. Do not let the unit run while in any one stationary position for any period of time. Keep the unit moving while in operation.

Note: At least once a month, check for and remove excessive lint, string or hair from revolving brush. Patented cleaning grooves on brush roll will allow easier cleaning.

Wipe the outside of the cleaner with a damp cloth. Also clean the connector deflector assembly area, base of cleaner and fan housing area. If there is dust in the outer bag, vacuum it or shake it out.

A little preventative maintenance will keep your cleaner looking new and will ensure continued cleaning effectiveness.

Maintenance.

Troubleshooting.

Service problems that appear to be major can often be solved easily.

You can be your own troubleshooter by reviewing this guide.

All other servicing should be done by an Oreck authorized service center.

Stuffing or Blockage

IMPORTANT: On plush and new carpets, stuffing may occur inside the the intake tube and the lower tube assembly. This is due to excessive fuzz and loose cuttings in the carpet. Stuffing could occur for the first few cleanings until all the loose material is removed. Due to the high efficiency of the cleaner, many older carpets will cause stuffing when the cleaner is first used on them. If your vacuum cleaner does not pick up properly, or makes unusual noise and the outer bag does not fluff up or balloon open, follow these steps:

WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.

25Check for blockage at the mouth of the intake opening. If there is blockage, remove it with long-nose pliers, a screwdriver or coat hanger. If you can not reach the blockage, remove baseplate. Remove the base plate by removing 5 screws (see “Adjusting or Replacing Brush”).

26If the blockage is not at the base, remove lower tube. Unhook bag spring, releasing bottom of bag.

27Twist lower collar counterclockwise to slide up. Pull tube out of base.

28Check for blockage. If blockage is in the tube, remove with a coat hanger.

29If tube is not blocked, look into fan housing. Remove debris with long-nose pliers, a screwdriver or coat hanger.

27To reassemble, check O-ring on tube, and replace if damaged. Replace tube by first lining up slot at base of tube with tab inside fan housing. Insert tube and push down until the tube is seated. Make sure O-ring is in place against fan housing opening. Replace and tighten collar until collar locking tabs are locked in place.

Reattach bag spring.

30Many times blockage occurs due to a full dust bag causing dirt to back down the air flow system. When that happens, the blockage will be at the top of the system, starting in the area where the dust bag connects to the connector assembly.

Note: If the above actions do not correct the problem, contact an Oreck authorized service center or call the customer service center. US: 1-800-989-3535 Canada: 1-888-676-7325
