IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS When using or servicing any electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following: WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury: 1. Do not leave canister unattended when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use. 2. Turn off all controls before unplugging. 3. Do not attempt to service canister while plugged in. 4. Before handling PC board, discharge static electricity by using anti-static mat and ground strap. If anti-static mat is not available, touch a metal object that is grounded and only handle PC board by outside edges. 5. Disconnect from power source before removal of any panel or replacement of any component. WARNING: ELECTRIC SHOCK COULD OCCUR IF USED OUTDOORS OR ON WET SURFACES.

A. Full Bag Indicator 1. General information A pressure sensor, located on the main PC board, governs the full bag indicator feature. This sensor is connected to the bag cavity via an air tube. When the pressure exceeds the actuation limit for a minimum time period of 20 seconds (+ or 10), the red light blinks on the handle. If this condition goes unchecked the canister may over heat and shut down. NOTE: Hose connects to white pressure sensor on PC board. I. General Full Size Canister Issues 2. The red light on the handle is blinking. 1. Bag is sufficiently full to restrict airflow. 2. Hose, wand, or attachment may be clogged or attachment size is restricting airflow. 3. Sensor or connecting tube may be clogged. 4. For filtering purposes HEPA bags have very small airflow pores. Because these pores are so small, they are susceptible to clogging when vacuuming very fine debris such as drywall dust or talcum powder. In these instances, the bag may not appear to be full. 5. If none of the above conditions exist, and the full bag indicator light on the handle is blinking, the sensor may be set improperly. 6. The hose or PC board may be bad. Remove the HEPA filter and see if the FBI light goes out. If the FBI light stays ON the hose is should be replaced, otherwise the PC board needs to be replaced. 3. The full bag indicator fails to activate when the bag is full 1. The bag may be filled with fluff. Light, low-density materials can fill the bag but still allow enough airflow through so that the pressure never reaches the sensor s actuation limit. 2. There may be a problem with the wiring in the handle/hose assembly. Try a known good hose and re-test. 3. There may be a problem with the handle PC board. 4. The air tube may be dis-connected or damaged. 5. If none of the above conditions exist and the full bag indicator on the handle does not blink when the bag is full, the sensor may be set improperly. 6. The hose or PC board may be bad. Remove the HEPA filter and see if the FBI light goes out. If the FBI light stays ON the hose is should be replaced, otherwise the PC board needs to be replaced. 07.03.07 2 I. General Full Size Canister Issues

B. Check Filter Light 1. General information The check filter mechanism works on a timer. When the canister has accumulated 25 hours of operating time, the PC board triggers the check filter light to indicate the HEPA filter should be replaced. Pressing the Reset button will reset the timer and turn the light off. If the light comes on before 25 hours of use, place the hose on a functional test canister or replace the faulty hose and recheck the light. If the light stays on, verify when the filter was last changed and that the reset button was pressed afterward. NOTE: Pushing the reset button should reset the timer and turn the light out. 2. The reset switch does not reset the check filter light. Check the reset switch and wiring to PC connection board as follows: B. Step 1. Remove HEPA filter. B. Step 2. Remove the covers for the canister power switch and the cord rewind button (be careful not to lose the springs). B. Step 3. 1. Remove the 8 (eight) screws holding the black bracket in position, this will allow you to see the wiring. Check the wiring for broken or pinched wires. 2. If all the wires are good continue to Step 4. 3. If necessary replace any bad wiring. 4. Re-assemble canister and re-test. B. Step 4. 1. With the hose connected and canister plugged in, take a DC volt meter and check volts at the the PC connection board (red wires) should read 4 to 5 volts DC. 2. If voltage is good continue to Step 5. 3. If voltage is not good replace the PC board. 4. Re-assemble canister and re-test. B. Step 5. Place the tester on the connector located on the reset switch. This should read -4 to -5 volts DC. 2. If voltage is good continue to Step 6. 3. If voltage is not good replace the wiring to the switch. 4. Re-assemble canister and re-test. B. Step 6. 1. With volt meter reading -4 to -5 volts press the reset switch and volts should go to zero the return to -4 to -5 volts. If the voltmeter does not zero out for a moment the reset switch is bad and should be replaced. 2. Re-assemble canister and re-test. NOTE: You will also want to replace the PC board if the light is coming on at less than 22 hours of operation. Figure D. HEPA Reset Button Location. HEPA filter cover S-Class HEPA filter Reset Button 07.03.07 3 I. General Full Size Canister Issues

C. Common Issues 1. Canister power switch does not click when pedal is depressed. -This switch should NOT click. In a typical switch, such as the one on the mid-size canister, the click you hear is the movement of the metal contact inside the switch. This contact remains either in contact - completing the circuit, or dis-connected - breaking the circuit. There is no rocker or latch to hold the contacts in place in the full-size canister so you will not hear a click. The circuit is momentarily completed by depressing the switch, sending a signal to the PC board. That signal is interpreted as an instruction to turn the canister On. Depressing the switch a second time instructs the PC board to turn the canister Off. 2. What to check first when canister will not power up. -Dislodged electrical connectors are the usual cause of the canister not powering up. Make sure that all of the electrical connectors are firmly and securely engaged. It only takes one dis-connection to interrupt the proper operation of the canister cleaner. 3. Interpreting blinking LED light on the main PC board. -This light indicates whether the main PC board is maintaining proper communication with the handle PC board. The light should be blinking at an approximate rate of 2 seconds on, 2 seconds off. If it is blinking at a faster rate of 0.5 seconds on, 0.5 seconds off, there is an interruption in the communication between the two PC boards. If the light does not blink at all, there is a problem with the power being supplied to the main PC board. 4. Canister will not run without the hose connected. -The hose must be connected to complete the circuit before the canister will run. This is due to the variable control being mounted in the handle assembly. 5. Canister cuts on and off at the customers house but runs in the store. -The power at the home may vary due to the current load on the circuit. Wiring in the house may not be heavy enough to carry the load of the canister plus the other items connected. 6. Canister cuts on and off when plugged into a power strip, but runs when plugged into the wall. -The power strip breaker is not large enough to handle the 12 AMP canister for extended period of time. 07.03.07 4 I.

F. Power Nozzle w/ Dirt Sensor Will Not Run But Canister Runs F. Step 1. Check the hose to see if the light indicates that the nozzle is on. F. Step 2. Check the nozzle to see if the sensor/indicator light is ON, and if on what color is it. Light is OFF: Go to page 10, D. Canister Runs, Power Nozzle Does Not Run Light is RED: Go to Step 3. Light is GREEN: Go to Step 4. Light is ORANGE: Go to Step 5. NOTE: If the motor is not running there will be no headlight. F. Step 3. Push the reset switch/breaker (See Figure B. Power Nozzle Reset Switch Location). Turn the power nozzle ON. Does the nozzle start, the indicator light turn GREEN, and the headlight come on? YES: NO: Check the height adjustment to ensure it is set to proper height for the type of carpet being vacuumed. If breaker continues to trip, the breaker may be weak and should be replaced. NOTE: If light is RED and power nozzle runs - Check wiring (See Figure L. Wiring Diagram For Dirt Sensor Models). F. Step 4. Turn the canister and power nozzle ON ; push the nozzle through some dirt and see if the light turns ORANGE. Light turns ORANGE: Light stays GREEN: Sensor is working and breaker/reset switch is good. Remove nozzle and cover and check the motor and wiring to the motor. Remove nozzle and cover and check the motor and wiring to the motor and that the sensors are in place. Check movement of wiring when handle is moved up and down. If sensor moves, remove sensor leads from zip tie. F. Step 5. ORANGE light normally indicates that dirt has been found. If light stays ORANGE it indicates that the sensor has dirt or moisture on the sensor lens located one on each side of the inlet duct. Clean lens by first removing the base plate and brush roll.
