Cleaner Height Setting WARNING: Avoid injury. Keep loose clothing, hair, fingers, and all other parts of body away from any moving part (such as the revolving brush). Turn off the switch and unplug the cleaner before changing the cleaner height setting. Adjust the vacuum cleaner height setting to match the carpet pile height. Refer to the following chart of recommended settings for carpet types. The front of the cleaner has either a knob or slide adjustment which raises or lowers the cleaner base to match the type of carpet. With the cleaner cord unplugged, set the adjustment according to the table as a starting point. While the cleaner is off and disconnected from the outlet, place the handle in the operating position, tilt the cleaner back to remove the weight from the wheels, and adjust the setting. Then plug the cleaner into the electrical outlet, turn on the switch, lower the handle, and pass the cleaner over the carpet. If the cleaner is still difficult to push, follow the procedure and test the cleaner at the next higher setting. Continue testing the setting until the cleaner is comfortable to move. Moving the knob or slide to the next higher setting raises the brush roll slightly, making the cleaner easier to push. However, the brush roll must make contact with the carpet for effective cleaning. Recommended Setting Position 1 Example of Carpet Low pile as kitchen, indoor, outdoor Position 2 Sculptured Position 3 Plush or thick sculptured Position 4 Thick plush If the cleaner has additional height settings, they are for thicker carpets or where easier pushing is desired. 9
