Frequently Asked Questions - CarpetMaster 218 Clarke

Can I use the CarpetMaster 218 vacuum on wet carpets?

No, this appliance is designed for dry use only. Never use it on wet surfaces or to vacuum liquids, otherwise risk of electric shock or damage.

How do I adjust the brush height?

Turn the adjustment knob (10) located on the brush housing. Turn to the left to lower the brush (short pile carpets), to the right to raise it (long pile carpets). If the red light comes on, the setting is too low; turn in the opposite direction until it goes out.

What are the green and red lights for?

On DMU models, the green light indicates the brush motor is working normally. The red light signals a jammed brush or too low height. If it flashes, reduce the height; if it stays on, unplug and remove debris from the brush.

When should I replace the dust bag?

Replace the bag when the bag full indicator (15) lights up. For cloth bags, empty them at that time. Never use the vacuum without a bag, as the lid will not close if the bag missing clip is activated.

How do I replace the HEPA filter?

Unplug the appliance. Press the latch (19) to open the filter cover (18). Remove the old HEPA filter by the frame (do not touch the filter material). Insert the new filter, then close the cover. Replace it every 4 bag changes or more often if dirty.

Can I wash the pre-filter?

Yes, the pre-filter can be washed in hot water. Let it dry completely before reinstalling. Clean it every 3 bag changes. If too dirty, replace it. Never use the vacuum without a pre-filter.

What should I do if the brush stops turning?

Unplug the appliance. Check if debris is wrapped around the brush and remove it. If the red light stays on, the overload protector has tripped. Replug and restart; it will reset automatically. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

Is this vacuum suitable for domestic use?

It is designed for commercial use (hotels, schools, offices, etc.). It can be used at home, but it is more powerful and robust than standard domestic models.

What type of power outlet is required?

The appliance requires a grounded 120 V outlet. Only use a 12-gauge extension cord, max 15 meters. Do not modify the ground plug.

How do I maintain the vacuum after use?

Unplug it. Check the bag (replace if indicator is on). Clean the bag compartment. Wipe the cord. Remove fibers and debris from the brush housing. Store the appliance in a clean, dry place.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should electrically malfunction, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

GER!

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance.

If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Figure 1 below. A temporary adapter illustrated in Figures 2 and 3 may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in Figure 2 if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (Figure 1) can be installed by a qualified electrician.

The green-colored rigid ear, tab, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw. Grounding adapters are not approved for use in Canada.

Replace the plug if the grounding pin is damaged or broken.

The Green (or Green/Yellow) wire in the cord is the grounding wire. When replacing a plug, this wire must be attached to the grounding pin only.

Extension cords connected to this machine should be 12 gauge, three-wire cords with three-prong plugs and outlets. DO NOT use extension cords more than 50 feet (15 meter) long.

Insert the handle at the opening at the top of the bag housing, until the button at handle snaps in place.

SET UP AND ASSEMBLY

1. Carefully take out the vacuum cleaner from its carton.
2. Push the Handle (1) into the opening at the top of the Dust compartment until the button at the rod snaps in place and secure the handle to the housing.

Never operate the vacuum cleaner without a Dust Bag in place. Thease machines is equipped with an "no bag" clip. This means that if a dust bag not is fi tted or fi tted uncorrect - the dust lid (5) would not be able to close.

IMPORTANT!

Foot pedal must be used to release base to operating/non operation position. Failure to do so could result in damage to the release mechanism.

1. Release the power cord from the cord hooks (2) at the backside of the vacuum cleaner. Turn the lower hook so that the cord is released. Unwind the whole power cord.
2. Adjust the height of the handle, by pushing at the handle lock button (4) and then pull or push at handle to make it comfortable to use.
3. Add the cord to the hook of the handle in order to make an anti strain function. Then plug-in the power cord into a electrical outlet.
4. Turn the Main Power Switch (17) ON. "I" is ON and "O" is OFF. Now the vacuum motor will start.
5. Step on the Pedal (11) and then tilt the cleaner backwards. Now the brush motor will start (Dual-versions only). At Dual-versions the green light (7) at the brush housing (9) will come on to indicate that the brush motor is running.

IMPORTANT!

Foot pedal must be used to release base to

operating/non operation position. Failure to do so could result in damage to the handle release mechanism.

1. Turn the Height Adjustment Knob (10) to adjust the height that the brush will operate in - depending on the material at the surface to be vacuumed. For carpets with short textiles the brush should in the lower position. Turn the knob to the left (when you are placed in front of the machine) to lower the brush. For carpets with longer textiles the brush should in a higher position. Turn the knob to the right (when you are placed in front of the machine) to set the brush at a higher level. If the red light comes on, slowly turn the knob in the opposite direction until the light goes off.

If the red light (8) stays on continuously, there may be debris wrapped around the brush, during operation. At a double motor units this can cause the overload protector for the brush motor to trip. If this occurs, turn the Main Switch (17) OFF and unplug the power cord. Remove any debris from the brush and plug in the power cord, turn the Main Switch (17) back ON. This will automatically reset the overload protector. If the overload protector trips repeatedly contact your dealer for service. For more information of the light indicators at the Dual-versions - see the table below.

NOTE! Always disconnect the power cord before performing any machine maintenance.

Change the bag whenever the "Bag Full" Light (15) comes on. For details of dust bag replacement see separate instruction in this manual. If the light comes on before the bag is full, the inside of the bag may be coated with very fine dust (change the bag), or debris may be built up somewhere between the brush and the bag.

FILTERS - type of fi Iter may vary from different models

At these machines there are two different fi Iters; one pre-fi Iter before the vacuum motor and one exhaust fi Iter.

There are two different types of exhaust filters available to these machines, HEPA-filter and a standard exhaust filter. The HEPA-filter (High Efficiency Particulate Air filter) offers better filtration capacity then the standard exhaust filter. The exhaust filters catches any dirt that may escape from the dust bag, or motor pre filter. Replace the filter every fourth time that the dust bag is changed (more often in very dusty applications). The exhaust filters is located at the front side of the machine just above the brush house.

The HEPA filter can not be cleaned or washed clean. When the HEPA-fi iter is clogged it must be replaced.
