MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance is critical to ensure proper
machine operation and cleaning performance.
Perform all maintenance procedures as follows:
WARNING: Always unplug machine before
performing any maintenance. See page 2 for
warnings
Daily Maintenance
Inspect the cord and plug for any damage. Confirm
that the cord strain relief is being used.
NOTE: To prevent damage to the power cord,
ALWAYS store the machine with the power cord
coiled loosely over the handle.
Empty the filter bag after each use. Replace the
paper filter daily or when the filter is half full.
The filter bags must be emptied and cleaned on a
regular basis to prevent loss of vacuum suction
and possible machine damage. After emptying the
filter bag reinstall it back onto the machine.
Inspect the exhaust filter. Pull the filter out of the
slot at the rear of the machine. This filter may be
washed with mild dish soap, rinsed and completely
dried. Replace with new part as needed.
Inspect the vacuum motor filters. Tap the filters to
remove the dust buildup. Replace with new part
when needed.
Remove any string, hair or other materials
wrapped around the brush.
Weekly Maintenance
Verify that all daily maintenance has been done.
Inspect the belt for wear and tightness. Replace as
needed. The belt must not be too tight. The belt
should deflect 1/4” [6.4mm] between the thumb
and index finger.
Vacuum the inside of the filter bag (with another
vacuum cleaner) for maximum suction and filter
bag life.
Monthly
Verify that all weekly maintenance has been done.
Oil casters and wheels with a light machine oil.
Replace casters and wheels as necessary
Every 6 months
Check the length of the brush bristles.
Disassemble the shoe and rotate the bearing
blocks to lower the brush or replace brush.
Check the carbon brushes in the vacuum motors
for wear.
