HOW TO USE POWER NOZZLE
OPERATION OPERATION
1. Turning on the Power Nozzle
The power nozzle can only be turned on if the
canister is also turned on (canister on / off
switch is located on the main body). The
power nozzle on / off switch is located on the
handle. Simply press the power nozzle on / off
switch to engage the power nozzle.
To achieve best cleaning results, slowly pass
the power nozzle back and forth over the
carpet or floor.
2. Using the Power Nozzle
After turning on the canister and power nozzle,
release the wand by pressing the left pedal on the
back side of the power nozzle (see diagram 3)
Diagram 3
Diagram 4
3. Remove / Insert the Wand From The Power
Nozzle
Removing the wand from the power nozzle
allows you, for example, to use cleaning tools
for baseboard or ceiling cleaning. To do this,
first turn the power nozzle and canister off.
Then, press the wand release collar (see
diagram 5) and pull the wand out. To reinsert
the wand into the power nozzle, simply press
the wand back into the neck of the power
nozzle. The wand will then "click" back into
place.
Diagram 5
4. Carpet Height Adjustment
Your power nozzle has six different settings to
clean a variety of carpet types and floor
surfaces. To adjust the carpet height setting of
the power nozzle, press the right pedal located
on the back of the power nozzle (see diagram
6). Each press of this pedal will adjust the
height to the next carpet height position.
To determine which setting you are currently
on, locate and look through the height indicator
window on the top of the unit (see diagram 7).
You will see one of the six settings as
mentioned earlier and detailed below:
Setting: Intended Use:
1. XHI Very plush carpet
2. HI Plush carpet
3. Auto General carpet thickness or bare
floors
4. MED Medium pile carpet
5. LO Low pile carpet
6. XLO Indoor/outdoor carpet
Diagram 6 Diagram 7
Carpet Height Notes: When using the power
nozzle, start on the "auto" setting. If pushing the
power nozzle forward feels sluggish or hard to
push, then adjust to a higher setting (i.e. HI or
XHI). If the power nozzle feels very easy to push,
you may want to lower the power nozzle for more
effective cleaning. The "Auto" setting is the
recommended setting for hard floor surfaces (i.e.
tile, vinyl, wood).
5. Warning Light
Your power nozzle comes equipped with a
circuit breaker safety system that protects it
from a jammed power nozzle situation.
Common items that cause jammed brushrolls
include socks, excessive threads, corners of
area rugs, etc. The warning indicator light on
top of the unit (see diagram 8) will change from
green to red should this condition occur.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
1. Removing the Brushroll
IMPORTANT: Before performing any
maintenance work on the power nozzle,
always unplug the vacuum cleaner and
disconnect the wand.
Your brushroll may need to be removed at
times, for example, to cut threads that have
become tangled around the brushroll or to
replace the belt (see "Replacing the Belt").
To remove the brushroll, turn the unit over and
lift off the metal bottom plate by first
unscrewing the two bottom plate screws
located by the rear wheels (see diagram 10).
Pull out the belt cover guard (see diagram 11)
and pull the brushroll out.
If the circuit breaker trips:
a. Turn off the vacuum cleaner and power nozzle
then unplug the power cord.
b. Remove the object preventing the brushroll
from turning.
Locate the circuit breaker switch on the back of
c.
the power nozzle and press it to reset the breaker
(see diagram 9).
d.
When the unit is turned back on, the warning light
should be green and ready to go. If the breaker trips
again, repeat steps a-c again to correct the problem.
If this does not correct the problem, contact
your authorized vacuum cleaner retailer for
further assistance.
To reinstall the brushroll, reinsert the brushroll
back into the unit (make sure the belt is
attached properly). Next, insert the belt cover
guard. Then, place the metal bottom plate
back onto the unit (insert the front end of the
bottom plate first). Re-insert the two bottom
plate screws and secure.

2. Replacing the Power Nozzle Belt
IMPORTANT: Before performing any
maintenance work on the power nozzle,
always unplug the vacuum cleaner and
disconnect the wand.
To replace the power nozzle belt, you must
first remove the brushroll (see "Removing the
Brushroll"). Locate and discard broken belt.
To install new belt, locate the power nozzle
motor pulley and loop the belt around it (see
diagram 12). Place the other end of the belt
around the brushroll making sure the belt is
seated in the "belt groove" of the brushroll (see
diagram 13). Insert the brushroll back into the
brushroll tray and place the belt guard back
into position (see diagram 11). Place the
metal bottom plate back onto the unit (insert
the front end of the bottom plate first). Reinsert the two bottom plate screws and secure.

3. Replacing the Bulb
IMPORTANT: Before performing any
maintenance work on the power nozzle,
always unplug the vacuum cleaner and

wheels (see diagram 10). Locate and remove
the two top cover screws (see diagram 14).
Turn the power nozzle back over, push the
power nozzle neck flat, and remove the top
cover (see diagram 15). Simply pull the bulb
out (no twisting) and reinsert a factoryauthorized bulb. Place the top cover back on
the unit, turn the machine over and re-insert
the two top cover screws. Reinstall the bottom
plate.
