plug in any way.

carpet attachment. Then connect second tube to the first tube.

pushing in until locked into position.

Using Deluxe Floor Attachment

Please note that the convenient 3-way adjustability and 6 soft rubber wheels on the deluxe,
automatic floor to carpet nozzle enable you to freely move forward and reverse from carpet to
floor without any adjustments.

If floor nozzle does not move easily, we suggest that you reduce suction power on the variable
suction control. (See below.)

automatic floor to carpet nozzle.
