Operating Recommendations

This new ORECK XL 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 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 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 r suction fan and its housing. WARNING: Do not use your vacuum cleaner on

5. damp or wet surfaces. This will cause damage to the vacuum cleaner and is danger caused by use on wet or damp surfaces is not covered under warranty.

Be sure the disposable paper filter dust bag is installed properly.

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 Type CC disposable bags will affect the cleaning ability of your cleaner and could cause damage to it.

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.

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.

General Cleaner Care

At least once a month, check for and remove excessive lint, string or hair from revolving brush.

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 pr

eventative maintenance will keep your cleaner looking new and will ensure continued cleaning effectiveness.

CAUTION—W etc.) Floor Surfaces and Polished Floor Finishes

Remove the belt from the brush roll pulley and the motor drive shaft.

Loop the new belt over the motor drive shaft. Place the opposite end of the belt on the brush roll pulley.

WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.

Rotate and match bearing assemblies

To determine if the brush is worn, place a firm straight edge across the nozzle opening. If brush bristles do not extend beyond baseplate, brush should be adjusted.

Remove the baseplate by removing 5 screws. Then, remove the belt and brush roll from the housing.

Rotate both bearing assemblies at ends of brush roll to show “old” and replace in the holding channels in the housing.

NOTE: The bearing assembly setting marked “OLD” has a smooth side. The one marked “NEW” has a notch. When rotating bearings, make sure both bearing assembly settings are the same and face up when replacing the brush roll.

Stuffing or Blockage

Under certain conditions it is possible to stuff or block the intake tube and the lower tube assembly. 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 the following steps:

WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical outlet before servicing.

4. To reassemble, check O-ring on tube, and replace if damaged. Vacuum will not operate properly without the tube O-ring. Slide O-ring to approximately 2" from base of tube. Replace tube by first

5. Many 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. See illustration F.

IMPORTANT: On plush and new carpets, stuffing may occur 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.
