Tools and Tips
If you're having difficulty removing the Cleaning Wand
from the Hose Collar, rotate the Wand as you pull it
out. With continued use, the rubber Hose Collar will
soften and the Cleaning Wand will pull out more
easily.
Using the Hose Extension
(Optional Accessory)
If you have extra high ceilings or staircases, you may
want to purchase a Hose Extension. It will give you
additional cleaning reach. To purchase a Hose
Extension or any of the other cleaning accessories,
turn to the “Accessory/Parts List” in this manual.
Using The Hose Extension
1. Remove the Cleaning Wand from the Hose
following the instructions outlined in the
“Attaching Cleaning Tools to the Hose” section of
this manual.
2. Push the Tabs around the rim of the
Hose Collar.
3. At the same time, twist the Nozzle of the
Optional Hose Extension into the Hose Collar.
Make sure it slides in all the way.
4. If extra reach is needed, insert the Cleaning Wand
into the Hose Extension Collar.
5. Select the appropriate Cleaning Tool and attach to
either the Wand or directly to the Hose Extension.
6. Vacuum as usual.
Removing The Hose Extension
Always remove the Optional Hose Extension after
you've finished your cleaning task.
1. Push in the Tabs of the Extension Hose Collar.
This will release the Wand from
the Collar.
2. Pull out the Cleaning Wand.
3. Remove the Optional Extension Hose by pushing
in the Tabs of the Vacuum Cleaner Hose Collar and
pulling out the Hose Extension Nozzle.
4. Slide the Cleaning Wand back into the
Hose Collar.
Proper cleaning and maintenance will ensure the
highest operating performance of your Westinghouse
WST1500 Vacuum Cleaner.
Attaching Cleaning Tools
To The Wand
1. Select the appropriate Cleaning Tool for the
vacuuming job.
2. Release the Cleaning Wand.
3. Slide the Tool into the top of the Cleaning
Wand.
4. Firmly press the Tool in place. It should
fit snugly.
Attaching Cleaning Tools
To The Hose
You can also attach your Cleaning Tools directly
onto the Hose. This will give you the flexibility
to clean delicate china or fine collectibles that
must be dusted carefully.
1. Remove the Wand from the Hose. Extend
the Cleaning Wand as far as it will reach out
of the Hose.
2. Hold the Hose Collar in one hand and, using
your thumb and forefinger, press in both of
the Hose Collar Latches. (See Figure 11a.)
3. With your other hand, pull the Wand all of
the way out of the Hose Collar. (See Figure
11a.)
4. Insert any Attachment directly into the Hose
Collar. (See Figure 11b.)
