CLEANING THE DUST CONTAINER
To achieve the best performance, empty the dust container after each use.

speed. This is done to optimize the life of all components of the sweeper and is

overloading the unit when starting on heavy carpets. Other speeds can then be
selected by depressing the speed selector switch.
6. For best cleaning performance, use speed “I” (low) on hard surfaces, speed “II”
(medium) on low carpets/rugs, and use speed “III” (high) on deeper carpets.
These are guide lines and you will find the optimum speed settings for your
surfaces and debris to be picked up through use and experience.
7. The sweeper will automatically try to maintain speeds on all surfaces. The unit
may appear to be pulsing during use to maintain it’s speed, this is normal. If this
occurs, please select the next highest speed to gain optimum performance.
8. To protect your sweeper and it’s components, the sweeper is provided with an
electronic overload circuit. If something were to jam or overload the brush bar
system, the units speed indicators will flash and the unit will stop operating, this
is normal. If this occurs, please switch the unit off, clear the obstruction from the
brush bar and then depress On/Off switch to start sweeper again.
