CLEARING HOSE AND WAND OBSTRUCTIONS – XP MODELS
CLEARING THE BRUSH ROLL
Obstructions such as hair, string, and throw rugs may cause the red brush indi-
cator light to be illuminated and the power nozzle to shut off.
Turn off vacuum and unplug power cord from outlet.
On underside of vacuum, pull out, or cut away, obstructions on the brush
roll. (Figure A)
Press the reset button on top side of powerhead. Plug-in power cord, and
restart motor (Figure A).
CLEARING HOSE & WAND
Obstructions in hoses and wands may reduce or eliminate suction.
Familiarize yourself with air flow path and possible obstruction locations
(Figure B).
To determine obstruction location, remove wand from port. (Figure C). Turn
on vacuum and place hand over wand opening to check for proper suction.
If no suction exists, blockage is at location A or B (as shown in Figure B) and
proceed to Step 3. If there is proper suction, the blockage is at location C or
D (as shown in Figure B) and proceed to Step 5.
Open Bag Housing Cover (FIG. 1) and replace Intercept Micro Filter. A full
filter will restrict airflow.
Remove hose from the bag housing cover by using the quick release tabs.
(FIG. 2). Look into upper hose and wand. Shake or insert broom handle to
clear any visible debris. Replace hose and wand on vacuum.
If blockage is not in the wand or upper hose, disconnect the lower air duct
hose on the back of the power nozzle (FIG 3). Visually check the lower air
duct hose for debris and remove. To check for unobstructed air flow, turn
on vacuum and place hand over opening on lower air duct. If you feel
proper suction, reconnect lower air duct and resume vacuuming. If blockage
is not in lower air duct hose, proceed to step 6.
With bottom air duct hose and upper hose and wand disconnected, carefully
insert a broom handle (or any similar item like a short length of hose, pipe,
etc) approximately 14 inches into wand guide on top of vacuum housing
(Figure D) to dislodge obstruction or debris. Debris should then drop or move
into the lower air duct hose where you can then remove it with your hand
(FIG 3).
Reconnect the lower air duct hose and upper hose assembly, and turn on
the vacuum.
