The backpack is designed to balance the weight of the vacuum on the hips, not the
shoulders.
1. Adjust the Vari-Quick height adjuster to your back length.
2. Loosen all of the straps and place the vacuum on your back.
3. Place the hip belt over your hip and connect the buckle. Your hip bones should be
centered between the top and bottom of the belt. Pull the straps forward to tighten the hip
belt (Fig. 1).
4. Pull down the shoulder straps to tighten the backpack on your shoulders (Fig. 2). Do not
tighten too tight. The main weight of the vacuum should be on the hip belt. The anchor
points of the shoulder straps should ideally be between the shoulder blades. Adjust the
Vari-Quick height adjuster if necessary to properly place the vacuum to your back length.
5. Adjust the sternum strap on a comfortable part of your chest and close the strap (Fig. 3).
6. Loosen or tighten the stabilizer straps as needed, to fit your back (Fig. 4).
7. Make final adjustments to the shoulder and stabilizer straps as needed to balance the
weight of the vacuum on the hips.
8. Attach the extension wand to the hose and fit the floor tool or any of the other vacuuming
accessories on the wand.
9. Turn the vacuum on. The toggle switch is located on the lower housing.
10. After you finish cleaning, turn off the main power switch.
