IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the
following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:

Do not leave appliance when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electrical shock - Do not use on wet surfaces. Do not expose to rain. Store
indoors.

• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.

• Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.

• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped,

damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center.

• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp
edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.

• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked, keep free of dust, lint,

hair, and anything that may reduce airflow.

• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.

• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

• Do not use without dust bag and/or filters in place.

• Turn off all controls before unplugging.

• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Model C25120-02, 12

INSPECTION

Carefully unpack and inspect your machine for shipping damage. Each unit is tested and thoroughly
inspected before shipment, and any damage is the responsibility of the delivery carrier who should
be notified immediately.

ELECTRICAL

This machine is designed to operate on a standard 15 amp., 115 volt, 50 hz, AC circuit. Voltages
below 105 volts AC or above 125 volts AC could cause serious damage to the motor.

WARNING

Electric motors can cause explosions when operated near explosive materials or vapors. Do not
operate this machine near flammable materials such as solvents, thinners, fuels, grain dust, etc.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.

DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of

electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance — if it will not fit
the outlet have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in sketch A below. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the
same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this appliance.

INSPECTION

Carefully unpack and inspect your machine for shipping damage. Each unit is tested and thoroughly
inspected before shipment, and any damage is the responsibility of the delivery carrier who should be
notified immediately.

ELECTRICAL

This machine is designed to operate on a standard 16 amp. type L fused 230 volt, 50 hz, AC circuit.
Voltages below 200 volts AC or above 250 volts AC could cause serious damage to the motor. I.E.C. Class

1.

WARNING

Electric motors can cause explosions when operated near explosive materials or vapors. Do not operate
this machine near flammable materials such as solvents, thinners, fuels, grain dust, etc.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric

shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance — if it will not fit the outlet have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

OPERATION 115/230V Models

Conditioning Carpet: For dry conditioning, vacuum entire room or desired area. Press the starting lever

switch and walk forward for the full length of the room or area. The rotation of the cylindrical brush will
propel the machine forward. For effective use, hold back slightly to allow the pile lifting brush to dig out the
imbedded soil. Do not raise handle to put extra weight on brush, as this will cause the motor to overheat
and could cause a burnout. Added pressure on the brush does not increase cleaning efficiency. The extra
pressure slows the brush, reducing dirt pick-up.

Retrace by pulling the machine back over the same area. This combs the pile and removes grit. (Slight
downward pressure should be exerted on the handle while pushing backwards. This relieves some of the
pressure on the brush and prevents an overload on the motor and a loss of cleaner efficiency due to
reduced brush speed.)

Use hand brush in corners and other inaccessible areas.

MAINTENANCE

Brush Housing: The underside of the brush housing has a compartment to catch heavy dirt and objects

that are not carried into the dust bag. To empty this compartment, tip the machine back so that the front of
the housing is off the floor. Release spring holder on cover plate at rear of machine and open. This allows
all debris caught in the compartment to drop out. To close, push cover plate back inspection firmly and
replace spring holder.
