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 Dust Bags
.
The purpose of the dust bag is to trap dirt, but at the same time it must be porous enough to allow
air to pass through. If the dust bag becomes clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner and
cleaning cannot take place, regardless of the cleaner’s power.
DO NOT FILL ABOVE THE LINE INDICATED ON THE DUST BAG.
not the same. Your ORECK disposable dust bags have been designed to be used with the ORECK
cleaner. Using bags other than genuine ORECK TYPE CC disposable bags will affect the cleaning
ability of your cleaner and could cause damage to it and will void the warranty.
Celoc®Filtration System
smallest of dust particles. It is important that 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 Celoc®
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 page 6 for replacing worn 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.
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
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.
WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical socket before servicing.
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.

Adjusting or Replacing Brushroll
WARNING:
Unplug cord from electrical socket before servicing.
To determine if the brushroll is worn, place a firm object with a straight edge across the opening
in the base of the vacuum. If the brushroll bristles do not extend evenly beyond the baseplate and
touch the straight object then the brushroll should be adjusted.
16
17
Remove the baseplate by removing 5 screws and then remove the belt and brushroll from the housing.
18
19
To adjust the brushroll, rotate the ends of each brushroll so that the ‘OLD’ setting is uppermost (19).
The ‘OLD’ setting is smooth and has no grooves along the edge. The ‘NEW’ setting has several
grooves along the edge (18) and on a new brushroll this should be facing uppermost.
Note:
Only one of the brushroll ends has 'OLD' and 'NEW' setting positions marked,
as indicated in illustrations 18 and 19.
15
Reassemble the belt.
16
Reassemble the baseplate.
If a previous adjustment has already been made and bristle height does not extend above the
baseplate, a new brush assembly should be ordered or a Service Kit (SERKIT35G).
IMPORTANT: Both brushroll ends must be set to the same setting. The right and left side
must be both 'NEW' or both 'OLD'. Unmatched settings can cause damage to the unit.
