The lid can be fitted so that the elbow (where the hose engages) is on the left or right side. This allows the
vac hose to be used by left or right handed operators.
Remember
to position the lid before fitting the unit to
your back. To fit the lid, make sure the filter bag is located inside the canister so that the black ring on the
filter bag is flush with the top of the canister. Then locate the lid over the filter bag ring so that the tabs on the
lid are in line with the indents on the canister. Push lid firmly down so that tabs lock into position. (see Fig. 5)

Fitting Unit to the Operators Back
The Floor Tool (1) is universal and can be used on soft or hard floors. The Handle Grip has a slider (
2
). When the
slider is open the suction power is reduced. The reduced suction allows vacuuming of furniture or drapery, etc.
The Telescopic Wand has an adjustment Tab (
3
). This allows length adjustments
-
shorter or longer. For example
it can be shorten to vacuum stairs. For normal vacuuming lengthen to it maximum
-
it makes floor tool movement
on carpet easier. The Vacuum hose assembly is fitted to the elbow on the lid (lid should be fitted) by inserting and
locating the swivel cuff (4) and turning clockwise to a locked position. The Tool Caddy (a) conveniently carries the
three accessory tools as shown in figure 1. They can only go in from one side. The Tool Caddy is fitted to the wand
on its shoulder under the black ring (5). The Upholstery tool (d) is ideal for furniture and soft furnishings. If the suc-
tion is too strong then adjust slider on the Handle Grip (see fig. 2). The Dust Tool has a pivoting head to get into
awkward places. The Crevice Tool (c) is for concentrated suction in tight areas.
All of the accessories tools can fit on to the wand or hose handle grip.
