cleaners are on both
sides of the

base-boards or next
to furniture to help
remove dirt trapped
at carpet edges.
POWERMATE® STORAGE
The lower wand has a U-shaped storage
hook at its base that slides into the U-shaped
slot on the canister. The storage hook allows
the wands and PowerMate® to be stored with
the canister to conserve storage space.
The canister must be stored on end for
this feature to be used.
The PowerMate® must be in the flat position
for storage attachment. Use the handle
release pedal to place it in this position. The

for use and will slide into the slot as it is
