PROPER VACUUMING TECHNIQUE WITH THE PROLUX 2.0 FLOOR TOOL When vacuuming with your Prolux 2.0, you may vacuum using the standard forward and backwards vacuuming motion as you would with standard vacuum cleaners. However, because of the new Prolux 2.0 floor tool design, you can vacuum an area by vacuuming in half circle motions and vacuum the same area twice as fast. ● Start by holding the wand as seen in (Fig A).
USING YOUR VACUUM 1. Insert the battery into the vacuum 2. Connect hose and telescopic tube if desired. 3. Correctly place shoulder straps on each shoulder and secure the waistband strap. (Fig 8 through Fig 8b) Caution: If the waistband and both shoulder straps are not properly and securely in place, the unit could fall off your back, causing damage or injury. 4. Turn the unit on/off by pressing the switch located near the base of the unit.
