OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

Please read the following operating instructions carefully. They will help you to get the best performance from this professional quality vacuum cleaner and to maintain it in optimum condition.

Follow these simple steps for easy and effective operation of the Backpack vacuum.

Open the lid and ensure that the cloth bag is correctly located and the flexible ring provides a proper seal when the lid is closed. For optimum performance, filtration and maximum hygiene, it is advisable to use a paper vacuum bag in addition to the standard cloth bag.

If a paper vacuum bag is used, simply insert it into the cloth bag, making sure that the cardboard disk is centered on the flexible sealing ring. When you replace the lid, the short nozzle in the center of the lid will be forced into the central hole of the cardboard disk of the paper vacuum bag thus providing a tight seal. Make sure the paper vacuum bag is tightly secured over the short nozzle before vacuuming.

Lock the lid down with the two latches. Always ensure that the cloth vacuum bag is empty and the paper bag is no more than 12 full before vacuuming. The vacuum hose is fitted into the cuff in the lid. It should not be necessary to remove the hose in normal operation.

1. Place the Backpack vacuum on your back, adjust the shoulder straps until you feel comfortable and then tighten the waist belt. The Backpack vacuum is designed to ride higher on your back for maximum comfort.
2. Attach the extension wand to the hose and fit the floor tool or any of the other vacuuming accessories on the wand.
3. Turn the vacuum on. The toggle switch is located on the lower housing.
4. After you finish cleaning, turn off the main power switch.

PREPARING BATTERY PACK FOR CHARGING

1. Plug the charger's power cord into the charger (Fig. 6).
2. Plug the charger's power cord into 120V wall outlet (Fig. 7).
3. The indicator light should turn Red and blink while charging and turn Green when fully charged (Fig. 8). The battery pack may require approximately 2.5 hours to fully charge.
4. Verify the charge level of the battery pack by pressing the power level indicator button on the front of the pack. (Fig. 9). Four lights (one red and three green) indicate a fully charged battery. Unplug battery from charger and unplug cord from wall outlet after charging.
   *Battery pack may get warm while charging.
