FAQ

FAQS
I don’t see an on/off button, how do I power
on the machine? To power on your KB 5, sim-
ply pull back the handle. Once the handle is
pulled back, you will hear the unit turn on
and you are ready to clean!
How do I empty the dirt container? Simply
pull the dirt container out from the side of
the unit and empty contents into a trash bin.
How often do I need to empty the dirt con-
tainer? We recommend emptying the dirt
container after every use. Additionally, if you
are cleaning and notice that the unit is not
picking up as much as usual or dirt is coming
out the side of the unit, it’s time to empty the
dirt container.
Can I clean the dirt container? Yes! The dirt
container can be easily cleaned, simply rinse
with water and allow the container to air dry
completely before replacing in the side of the
machine.
Can I use my KB 5 on a rug or carpeted area?
We recommend the KB 5 for use on low pile
carpeting/rugs. Please note that if you are
using the KB 5 on a low pile rug or carpeted
area, the KB 5 will be better at picking up
large debris (think cheerio sized) than small
debris (think dirt and dust).
Is the KB 5 safe for use on hardwood floors?
Yes, the bristles on the brush roller of the KB
5 are made of soft nylon and will not leave
scratches on your hardwood floors. On hard-
wood floors (and hard floor types in general)
the KB 5 will pick up hair, dust, and debris.
Is the KB 5 a good replacement for my
vacuum? No, the KB 5 is not intended to
function as a replacement for a vacuum
cleaner. While the KB 5 is capable of picking
up many types of dirt and debris, it is not
suitable for picking up sand or fine dust.
Thus, we recommend using the KB 5 as your
go to sweeper and vacuuming your floors as
necessary.
