POWER-MATE ®STORAGE
SOME MODELS
The lower
wand has a
"U" shaped
flange in the
area where
the power
cord attach-
es. The base
has a "U"
shaped slot
near the
front caster.
The flange allows the wands and Power-
Mate®to be stored with the canister to
conserve storage space. The canister
must be stored on end for this feature to be
used.
The wand will slip out of the slot as it is lift-
ed up for use and will slide into the slot as it
is lowered for storage.
The Power-Mate ® must be in the flat posi-
tion as shown in the illuskation. Use the
handle release pedal to place it in this posi-
tion.
NOTE: You may save space by lowering the
telescoping wand as shown in the ASSEM-
BLY section.
To prevent tip over, never leave
Power-Mate" on or in the upright
position with the wand fully
extended. Moving the wand to a
lower position and turning the
handle to one side will make the
Power-Mate ® more stable and less
likely to tip over.
