THIS IS THE
“HEART”
OF YOUR NEW
HOOVER
DIAL-A-MATIC
CLEANER
YOUR NEW HOOVER DIAL-A-MATIC IS THE MOST
POWERFUL UPRIGHT CLEANER EVER BUILT.
To handle the wide range of pile depth of modern carpets
FIG. 1
and rugs we have provided you with TWO
features. When used properly, they will assure the best
cleaning efficiency and ease of operation.
NOTE: It is recommended that the cleaner be operated
only on dry carpet.
SUCTION ADJUSTMENT (Fig.
Set the dial to MEDIUM. This will be the correct setting
for the majority of rugs. If your HOOVER cleaner seems
hard to push, move the dial toward the LOW position. For
low pile, sculptured or multi-level rugs it may be necessary
to move the lever toward HIGH for most effective cleaning.
NOTE: Be certain d i a I indicator points to desired
suction

Set the lever at SHAG for all

pets or rugs.
Use the NORMAL setting for
all carpets or rugs with a
tightly woven pile.

floor coverings that have a
very flat surface pile. . . or

NOTE: When removing loose dirt from hard surface
floors, adjust the cleaner to the NORMAL position. The
INDOOR/OUTDOOR setting on the c 1 e a ne r lowers’ the
nozzle to the carpet for effective cleaning of INDOOR/
OUTDOOR carpet. However, be certain to change the rug
position when cleaning normal or shag pile carpet. If the
INDOOR/OUTDOOR setting is used when cleaning normal
or shag pile carpet, there is an increase in the belt load
and pushing effort is greatly increased.
SET THE DIAL FOR CLEANING TOOLS
The handle of the cleaner should be in Storage
POSitiOn
(see Page I) when cleaning to o I s are used. When the
handle is in this position,
the nozzle is raised and the
agitator does not come in contact with the rug.
Attach hose and cleaning tools (Page

Set lever on Suction Control Dial to “HIGH” under “TOOL SUCTION” for
most cleaning. For cleaning draperies and delicate fabrics,
move lever toward “ LOW’
The lever can be placed at “HIGH”, “MEDIUM”, “LOW”
or any space between these markings.
