Check and Clear Hose Blockages
Low suction or poor pickup may be due to a blockage in the vacuum cleaner.
1. Remove hose and check suction at end of hose - if little or no
suction, check disposable dust bag. Change if needed. If no
improvement proceed to Step 2.
NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord before
clearing hose.
2. Remove the handle from the vacuum cleaner by removing the
two screws and sliding the handle towards the rear.
3. Once the handle is removed, disconnect the attachment hose
from the unit by lifting straight up on the hose adapter.
Check for any obstructions that may be in the hose. Any
obstructions can be removed by using a blunt instrument to
clear the hose. Flexing the hose may help loosen the clog.
4. Reinstall the hose after clearing the clog. Make sure the hose is
inserted into the top of the vacuum cleaner before reattaching
the handle.
NOTE: If no improvement in performance on carpet, proceed
