GENERAL INFORMATION


Now that the machine is unpacked remember to recycle all packing materials.

Inspect the machine for damage or missing components. If damage is found, contact the local freight company to file a
freight claim.
ASSEMBLY
The Model M-1 requires minimal assembly. The bag
rod, hose coupling and filter bag must be installed
properly prior to using this machine.
Bag Rod
 Remove the screw and washer (2 & 3) from the top
post of the bag rod (1). Insert the top post into the
hole in the handle. Replace the washer and screw
and tighten into the top bag rod post.
 Slide the bottom of the bag rod into the groove in the
bottom of the machine, and secure it with the set
screw (4) using the allen wrench provided.
Hose Coupling
 Push the hose cuff (not shown) onto the swivel
coupling (5) as far as possible to prevent the hose
from pulling off of the swivel when in use. To ease
installation you may have to run the hose cuff under
HOT tap water for 2 to 3 minutes to soften the hose
cuff.
 Attach the hose coupling (5) to the front of the
machine by slipping it over the locator pins (7) on the
intake.
 Twist the coupling to lock it in place. Tighten the wing
nut (6) to secure it. Always remove the hose and
coupling from the machine after each use.
Filter Bag
Refer to the "shirt tag" instructions on the bag (8).
 Remove the rubber washer (10) from the bag rod and
set aside.
 Attach the looped strap (11) on to the bag rod until it
is on the long part of the rod.
 Hang the bag handle (9) on the bag rod loop and
secure the loop opening with the rubber washer (10).
70 dB(A)

Attach the bag coupling (12) to the top of the machine
by twisting the coupling to lock it in place. Tighten the
wing nut (13) to secure it.

MACHINE OPERATION

With the switch in the off position, plug the electrical
cord into an approved outlet (See page 2). Turn on the
machine with the switch located on the right side of the
machine.
 Attachments may be added for overhead cleaning in
such applications as removing dust from tops of door
and window frames, walls and ledges.

Brush and upholstery tools may be added to aid in
hand work. Select the proper tool for the maximum
cleaning result.

When using the machine on floors, the operator
should drop their arm slightly to allow air to enter the
front edge of the tool on the forward stroke. On the
backward stroke the operator should raise their arm
slightly to allow the back edge of the tool to clear the
floor. This method gives the air a chance to do the
work in the most effective manner.

The operator should make strokes at a leisurely pace
and at a length that feels the most natural.

Always work away from the machine, pulling the
machine behind you.
