IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

Read all instructions before using this appliance.

This machine is for commercial use, for example in hotels, schools, hospitals, factories, shops and offices other than normal residential housekeeping purposes.

THIS APPLIANCE IS INTENDED FOR DRY USE ONLY!

DO NOT USE FOR WET FLOOR OR CARPET!

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:

* Do not leave the appliance when it is plugged in. Unplug the unit from the outlet when not in use and before servicing.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

* Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.

* Use only as described in this manual. Use only the manufacturer's recommended attachments.

* If the appliance is not working as it should be, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors or dropped into water, return it to a service center. The machine must not be used if the electrical cord shows any sign of damage. Regularly inspect the cord for damage, particularly if it has been crushed, shut in a door or run over.

* Do not pull or carry by the cord, use the cord as a handle, or pull the cord around sharp edges or corners. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.

* Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

* Do not handle the plug, cord or appliance with wet hands.

* Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked.

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.

!DANGER!

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.

PLEASE NOTE: FOR NORTH AMERICA ONLY

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. These machines are equipped with an "no bag" clip. This means that if a dust bag not is fitted or fitted uncorrectly - the dust lid (5) would not be able to close.

ADVANCE Spectrum 18D - SET UP AND ASSEMBLY - 2

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 comfortable height.
  3. Add the cord to the hook and the anti strain clip 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). Dual-versions, the green light (7) at the brush housing (9) will come on to indicate that the brush motor is running. On single motor versions, the brush is always turning when on.

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. 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 (Dual-version only).

If the red light (8) stays on continuously, there may be debris wrapped around the brush, during operation. On 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 on the Dual-versions - see the table below.

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

Whenever (15) "Restricted Airflow Light" indicator comes on, check the following: Is the bag full and needs to be changed or is the tube, hose or nozzle blocked.

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

On these machines there are two different filters; one pre-filter before the vacuum motor and one exhaust filter.

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 motor pre filter every 5th time that the dust bag is changed (more often in very dusty applications). The exhaust filters are located at the front side of the machine just above the brush base. The HEPA filter can not be cleaned or washed clean. When the HEPA-filter is clogged it must be replaced. Replace the exhaust / HEPA filter 1-2 times per year depending on amount of use.
