Description of the Powerbrush

The beater bar in the Powerbrush is driven by a motor. Two of the four rollers are height-adjustable, so that you can set the Powerbrush to the desired distance from the floor.

Recommended use

Do not use the Powerbrush on high quality, hand knotted rugs, for example Berber or Persian rugs, as well as extremely long piled area rugs and carpets. There is a danger of the threads being pulled out. Turn the Powerbrush off to vacuum these types of floor coverings and use only suction.

The Powerbrush is particularly suitable for cleaning and restoring crushed carpet pile of wall to wall carpeting and floor coverings subject to hard wear, especially in high traffic areas.

To clean hard flooring, it is better to use the floor brush.

Observe the cleaning instructions of the floor manufacturer.

Using the Powerbrush

For best results, move the Powerbrush slowly back and forth over the carpet.

Carpet fringes can be brushed flat if you carefully glide the Powerbrush in the proper direction (from the carpet toward the floor).

Connecting the Powerbrush

To connect the Powerbrush to your vacuum cleaner refer to the illustrations at the end of these Operating Instructions.

Height adjustment

To help better care for your flooring, you can select one of 5 brush distances from the floor. The selected setting will be displayed.

Setting 1 - closest to the floor

Setting 5 - highest distance from the floor

Press the foot switch (as shown) until you reach the desired setting.

Releasing the suction elbow

Press the release button ③ and remove the intake socket.

On/Off switch on the handpiece

The Electro hoses SES 116 and SES 119 are equipped with a switch on the hand piece, which allows the Powerbrush to be turned on and off separately.

This allows you to vacuum without the beater bar is desired, e.g. switching from carpet to hard flooring.

Frequently asked questions

What if the Powerbrush automatically shuts off?

The vacuum has overheated. The temperature limiter automatically turns the vacuum off.

This can occur if, for instance, large articles block the suction tube or when the filter bag is full or contains particles of fine dust. A heavily soiled exhaust or dust compartment filter can also be the cause of overheating.

Turn the vacuum off and pull the plug from the outlet.
Inspect the vacuum hose / wand and all filters.

It is important to allow the Powerbrush to cool off. It should be ready for use again in approx. 10 minutes.

Plug in the vacuum cleaner and switch it back on.

Maintenance and care

Removing threads and hair

Turn off and unplug the vacuum cleaner.
Use scissors to cut any threads or hair that have wound around the roller brush.

The trimmings will be vacuumed up once the vacuum is turned on again.
