clean the brush. 

The brush should be cleaned regularly. 

Fibers and hair can be pulled out of the brush while manually rotat-

ing the roller, or the roller can be removed from the powerhead to 

clean it.

Clogs in the Airflow Pathway - 

Figure 5

Many clogs can be removed by accessing the airflow pathway via the 

orange colored access door (#13, figure 5) located on the underside 

of the Powerhead.

Clogs in the Swivel Neck 

Check  the  swivel  neck  regularly  for  blockages.  Do  not  open  the 

machine. To check for a clog in the swivel neck (#3, page 5), remove 

the telescopic tube by pressing the release button (#9, page 5). Pull 

the tube out of the swivel neck. Push the obstruction down the neck 

with  a  stick  or  long  screwdriver  and  remove  it  through  the  orange 

access door (#13, figure 5).
