Question 1

Where is the power pedal located and how do I use it on the Power Scrub Elite FH50251?

Accepted Answer

The Power Scrub Elite FH50251 is equipped with a power pedal instead of a traditional button. You will find it in the features section identified as item #2 of the product.

To turn on the device:

First, plug the Power Scrub Elite into an electrical outlet
Press the power pedal to turn on the device and start cleaning

The features diagram (page 32 of the PDF manual) identifies this pedal among the various components of the device. The power pedal is the main control element to start the cleaning cycle of your vacuum cleaner.

Question 2

Does the Power Scrub Elite FH50251 lift from the front to protect the side brushes and the suction part?

Accepted Answer

No, the Power Scrub Elite FH50251 lifts from the back, not from the front. Here’s how the protection mechanism works:

Lifting Position

To lift the device and protect the brushes, firmly grasp the entire SpinScrub® brush assembly and pull it towards you with a quick, firm motion. The lifting is done from the back of the device, which raises the front and effectively protects the side brushes from direct contact with the floor.

Brush and Suction System Protection

The side SpinScrub® brushes are designed as replaceable components and should be lifted after each use or in case of a blockage. When you lift the device from the back, you clear the brushes from the floor and also protect the transparent tank that collects dirty water, preventing debris from damaging it.

Maintenance Tip

If the brushes remain stuck to the floor, refer to the specific FAQ "How to lift and store the Power Scrub Elite FH50251 when the brushes are stuck to the floor?" for unblocking solutions.

Question 3

How to lift and store the Power Scrub Elite FH50251 when the brushes are stuck to the floor?

Accepted Answer

The SpinScrub® brushes of the Power Scrub Elite FH50251 are designed to stay in contact with the floor during cleaning. To lift and store the device safely:

Unplug the device from the electrical outlet.
Remove the two tanks (clean water and dirty water) to lighten the weight and avoid excessive tilting.
Gently tilt the device backward while firmly grasping the entire set of brushes, then pull them towards you with a quick and firm motion.
Store the device in an upright position or slightly tilted to prevent unnecessary pressure on the transparent tank.

This handling is normal and safe for the transparent tank if you follow these steps. The brushes should never be forced - a firm and quick pull is enough to free them from the floor.

Question 4

What replacement filters are available for the Hoover FreeJet FJ144B2 011 vacuum cleaner?

Accepted Answer

The Hoover FreeJet FJ144B2 011 vacuum cleaner is equipped with a washable HEPA pre-motor filter paired with a screen. These two components ensure effective filtration and should be cleaned regularly.

Available replacement filters

To replace or renew your filtration, here are the part numbers:

HEPA pre-motor filter: part number S93 35600860

Filter maintenance

Your filter is designed to be washable. Clean it regularly with lukewarm water, without hot water or detergent. Regular maintenance extends the lifespan of the filter and maintains the suction performance of your device.

Question 5

How do I disassemble and clean the filter of my Hoover HF1P10HX vacuum cleaner?

Accepted Answer

To disassemble the filter of your Hoover HF1P10HX, start by removing the dust container. Once this step is completed, you can remove the micro-filter and the foam filter located underneath.

For cleaning, wash the filters with lukewarm water only, without detergent or hot water. Then let them dry for a full 24 hours before reinstalling them in the device.

Important: clean the filters after every 5 emptyings of the container to maintain good suction performance. After 5 consecutive washes, the filters must be replaced with original Hoover parts to ensure the maximum efficiency of your vacuum cleaner.

Question 6

Why does the agitator of my vacuum cleaner stop turning?

Accepted Answer

This problem is caused by the safety protection system of the HFREE 700. When the agitator gets blocked, the system automatically cuts off the rotation of the roller to protect the motor. Here’s how to resolve it:

Unblock the agitator

Turn off the vacuum cleaner with the on/off switch
Inspect the roller and agitator for any hair, threads, or debris wrapped around
Remove any blockages with your hands or pliers
Turn it back on and test

If suction remains weak after unblocking

A clogged filter also limits power. Clean:

Completely empty the dust bin
Rinse the mesh filter (J2) with lukewarm water (never hot water)
Wash the entire HSpin-Core
Let it dry completely before reassembling the parts

If the agitator still does not restart after these steps, check that you have not accidentally activated the silent mode which reduces the rotation power.

Question 7

How to connect the flexible hose to the body of the Khross KS50PET 011 vacuum cleaner?

Accepted Answer

To connect the flexible hose to the body of the vacuum cleaner:

Align the end of the flexible hose with the connector located on the main body of the vacuum cleaner
Push firmly until you hear a click or feel that the hose is securely locked in place

To detach the hose: press the button located at the end of the hose and gently pull to remove it.

Once the hose is properly attached, you can connect the handle to the upper end and the accessories (brush, nozzle) to the lower end according to your cleaning needs.

Question 8

What are the filters of the Hoover AT70_AT75011 and where are they located?

Accepted Answer

The Hoover AT70_AT75011 has two protection filters, both accessible through the dust bag compartment:

Motor protection filter - located inside the bag compartment. It is removed by taking off the filter frame from the vacuum cleaner.
Exhaust filter - placed at the motor outlet, also accessible once the dust bag is removed.

For maintenance, the protection filter should be cleaned every 5 bag changes, using only cold water (no hot water or detergent). Allow it to dry completely before reinstalling. Never operate the device without its filters in place.
