Edge Cleaning

The edge cleaning feature provides improved
cleaning near walls and stationary furniture.
For maximum edge cleaning, place the
left side of the nozzle, from the user's
perspective, against the wall.
Automatic Carpet Height
Adjustment
Your vacuum is designed with an automatic
self-adjusting nozzle. No manual adjustments
are required. The height of the nozzle
automatically adjusts to the flooring surface.
This self-adjusting feature allows the nozzle
to float evenly over all flooring surfaces.
Replacing the Vacuum Belt
WARNING! To Reduce the Risk of Electrical
Shock or Injury from Moving Parts, Turn
the Vacuum Off and Unplug it.
NOTE: To ensure maximum cleaning
efficiency, the belt should be checked
regularly to be sure it is in good condition.
Check to see if the belt is stretched, cracked,
or if excessive slipping is occurring. Replace
if needed.
• Turn the vacuum off and unplug it
before changing the belt.
• Remove the bottom plate (see Removing
the Bottom Plate, page 15).
• Remove the brushroll and the worn
or broken belt from the brushroll pulley
and the motor drive shaft (Fig. 1).
• Loop the new belt around the motor
drive shaft and the brushroll.
• Reinstall the brushroll into the nozzle.
Turn the brushroll by hand, making
sure the belt is not twisted and all
rotating parts move smoothly (Fig. 2).
• Reinstall the bottom plate (see Replacing
the Bottom Plate, page 15).
