Stuffing or Blockage
Under certain conditions it is possible to stuff or block the intake
tube and the lower tube assembly. If your vacuum cleaner does
not pick up properly, or makes unusual noise and the outer bag
does not fluff up or balloon open, follow the following steps:
1. Check for blockage at the
mouth of the intake
opening. See illustration A.
If there is blockage, remove
it with long-nose pliers, a
screwdriver or coat hanger.
If you can not reach the
blockage, r
emove base
plate. See illustration B.
2. If the blockage is not at the
base, remove lower tube.
See illustration C. Unhook
retainer spring, releasing
bottom of bag. Twist lower
collar counter clockwise to
slide up. Pull tube out of
base. Check for blockage.
If blockage is in the tube,
remove with a coat hanger.
3. If tube is not blocked, look
into fan housing. See
illustration D. Remove debris
with long-nose pliers, a
screwdriver or coat hanger.
4. To reassemble, check O-ring
on tube, and replace if
damaged. Vacuum will not
operate properly without the
tube O-ring. Slide O-ring to
approximately 2" from base
of tube. Replace tube by first
lining up slot at base of tube
with inner tab inside fan
housing. Then reinsert tube
and push down until the tube
is seated. Make sure O-ring is
in place against fan housing
opening. Replace and tighten
collar until collar locking tabs
are locked in place. See
illustration E. Make sure
collar is not cross threaded
on housing.
5. Many times blockage occurs
due to a full dust bag causing
dirt to back down the air flow
system. When that happens,
the blockage will be at the
top of the system, starting in
the area where the dust bag
connects to the connector
assembly. See illustration F.
IMPORTANT: On plush and new carpets, stuffing may occur
due to excessive fuzz and loose cuttings in the carpet.
Stuffing could occur for the first few cleanings until all the
loose material is removed. Due to the high efficiency of the
cleaner, many older carpets will cause stuffing when the
cleaner is first used on them.
NOTE: If the above actions do not correct the problem, contact
an ORECK authorized service center or call the customer service
center.
