SwivelSweeperMAX MNL ENG R1 130117

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Cord-

less , the quick & agile oor and carpet

sweeper that lets you clean dirt and messes faster and

easier than ordinary cordless sweepers.

The Secret: combines the cleaning

power of Quad-Brush® Technology – powerful rotating

cleaning brushes pick up dirt and messes from all four

NOTES:

sides of the sweeper head – with a 360° swivel feature

to easily maneuver around furniture and other objects. It

has an extended pole, is super-lightweight and it’s ba-

gless too!

glides effortlessly on four gentle oor

super sliders while its low-prole design lets you get

under couches, beds and other furniture with ease.

Now including a Touchless Dirt Tray – just push tabs to

quickly empty dirt & debris without getting your hands

dirty – and Removable Brush Heads – that make brush

maintenance simple and easy!

BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING:

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:

1. Swivel Sweeper® MAX is sluggish or won’t start:

Make sure the battery is fully charged and securely
inserted into the “Battery Compartment,” and that the
pole section with the “Battery Compartment” is securely
connected to the “Pole Base.” Check the “Rotating
Cleaning Brushes” to make sure they are not entangled
with hair, debris, etc.

2. Battery not charging:

Make sure that the “Rechargeable Battery” is fully
inserted into the “Battery Charger.” Also, check to make
sure that the red indicator light on the “Battery Charger”
comes on when charging.

3. Rotating Brushes become bound and Sweeper
shuts off:

See “Automatic Shut-Off Feature” instructions on pg. 6.

4. Swivel Sweeper® MAX operating but not
picking up mess:

The “Touchless Dirt Tray” may be full. Empty out if
necessary (see Emptying The Touchless Dirt Tray
Instructions on Pg. 6). Also, some debris may be
lodged in carpeting (such as staples) or may be too
large/heavy for the Sweeper to pick up. Make sure
the “Touchless Dirt Tray” is fully closed.

5. Dirt & Debris escaping from sweeper during
cleaning:

Make sure the “Touchless Dirt Tray” is empty and securely
connected to the Sweeper. Also, check to see that the
“Rotating Cleaning Brushes” are not entangled with debris
such as hair, paper, etc. Remove and clean Brushes as
necessary (See Maintenance and Care page 7-8).

MAKE SURE TO COMPLETELY READ AND UNDERSTAND
ALL OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND

MAGNETIC LATCH SYSTEM

FOR SPACE-SAVING STORAGE:

Swivel Sweeper’s Magnetic Latch System lets you store

your Sweeper in a compact manner between uses.

Storing Swivel Sweeper
Between Uses:

IMPORTANT: When you are

nished cleaning with Swivel
Sweeper, empty out the
“Touchless Dirt Tray,” close it,
then ip the sweeper head up to
the side of the “Pole Base” to
engage the two “Magnetic
Latches,” for space-saving

storage between uses

(SEE FIG. 10).

To release the Sweeper head
from the “Pole Base,” gently tap

it down.

IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE & CARE:

TO ASSEMBLE SWIVEL SWEEPER:

As with any rotating brush cleaning device,
Swivel Sweeper’s four cleaning brushes will
accumulate ne debris such as hair, thread and
other particles. To maintain optimal sweeper
performance, clean the sweeper’s rotating
brushes of hair and debris and its “Air Filter” of
dust and dirt as necessary following the
directions below.

Step 1) Make sure the Swivel Sweeper is

FIG. 6

turned OFF and remove the battery to
ensure unit does not accidentally turn on.

Step 2) Turn Swivel Sweeper Max®
upside down to allow for easy access to
the removable brush heads.

Step 3) Locate the brush head with
tangled debris. Remove the brush head by
pressing inward – in the direction of the arrow –
to release one side of the brush head from the
Sweeper base, (SEE FIG. 5) and then upward
and away from the sweeper (SEE FIG. 6).

Step 4) Remove the tangled debris by pulling it
away from the brush head or scraping with a
utensil (not provided) (SEE FIG. 7).

FIG. 8

CAUTION: Be careful when removing
debris. Do not use a utensil with a
sharp edge. Avoid using blades or
sharp tips when cleaning brushes.

FIG. 5

FIG. 7

Step 1)

Screw “Pole A”
onto “Pole B” until
secure.

Step 3)

Align the arrow on “Pole C” with the arrow
on “Sweeper Head D.” When arrows are
aligned, pole will easily slide onto Sweeper
Head. Then push rmly together until pole
locks into place.

CHARGING YOUR BATTERY:

Step 1) Plug the “Battery Charger” into a
standard electrical outlet as below:

UL/cUL 120V ~ 60Hz
GS 220V - 240V ~ 50/60Hz

A. Upper Pole
B. Middle Pole
C. Lower Pole
D. Sweeper Head

Step 2)

Screw “Pole B” onto
“Pole C” until secure.

Step 5) Dispose of debris properly. Then
reconnect the brush head in reverse order of
removal (SEE FIG. 8). Check that the brush is
returned to the original locked position (SEE
FIG. 9). Note that the “dot” on the shaft will be in
the position away from the reference arrow.

FIG. 9

FIG. 1

Step 2) Align the arrow on the “Rechargeable

Battery” with the arrow on the “Battery Charger.”
Then, insert the “Rechargeable Battery” down

into

the “Battery Charger” (SEE FIG. 1). NOTE: Red
light on the front of the “Battery Charger” should
turn on to indicate that the battery is charging.

IMPORTANT: For initial battery charge, let battery charge
for at least 8 full hours. When recharging, charge time will
vary dependent upon the amount of power that is left in the
battery after its last use. Recommended recharging time
for the battery after completely depleting it is 6-8 hours.
Battery may be left in charger for extended periods of time
but do NOT exceed 12 consecutive hours. Doing so may
lead to shortened overall battery life. It is not necessary to
wait until battery power is fully depleted before recharging.

USING SWIVEL SWEEPER MAX®:

Step1) Make sure the Swivel Sweeper is turned off.

(NOTE: The “On/Off Switch” is located on the front of the
“Battery Compartment”).

Step 2) Make sure the “Touchless Dirt Tray” is empty (see
directions on Pg. 6, EMPTYING THE TOUCHLESS DIRT
TRAY).

Step3) Insert the “Rechargeable
Battery” down into the “Battery
Compartment” located on the
front of the pole until it locks into
place (SEE FIG. 2).

Step 4) Turn the Swivel Sweeper
on to begin cleaning.

Step 5) When you are done cleaning, turn the Swivel
Sweeper off and empty the contents of the “Touchless Dirt
Tray” into a garbage receptacle. (See directions on pg. 6 to
empty the “Touchless Dirt Tray.”)
Recharge the battery if necessary.

FIG. 2

IMPORTANT: AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF FEATURE

Swivel Sweeper will automatically shut off to protect its moving
parts if the brushes become bound by carpets, rugs, hair or
other objects.

TO RESET THE SHUT-OFF FEATURE:

1. Place the “On/Off” switch in the “Off” position.

2. Untangle the sweeper’s brushes from the object(s) they are

bound by.

Sweeper will be ready to operate within 10 seconds.

EMPTYING THE TOUCHLESS DIRT TRAY:

Step1) Make sure the Swivel Sweeper is turned off.

Step 2) Hold the Swivel Sweeper “Base” over a garbage

receptacle, push the “Touchless Dirt Tray Lock/Release
Tabs” inward (SEE FIG 3) until the “Touchless Dirt Tray”
swings open (SEE FIG. 4) to empty the dirt and debris into
the garbage receptacle.

Step 3) Then place the “Base” back on the oor or other at
surface. With gentle downward pressure, the “Touchless Dirt
Tray” will lock closed.

IMPORTANT: If “Touchless Dirt Tray” does not
securely connect back up into the “Base,” check
to make sure that no small metal debris (i.e.
staples, paper clips etc.) has magnetized to the
Swivel Sweeper’s motor located on the under­side of the “Base.”
