The following are a few simple suggestions regarding its
operation:
1. When inserting a new disposable paper filter dust bag—
FIRST PUFF OUT and OPEN THE BAG.
Before assembling appliance,
remove two screws from the
connector assembly. Remove
cardboard insert by pulling
upward.

2. When the disposable filter dust bag is full, REPLACE IT.
3. If at any time the machine does not pick up properly or
makes an unusual noise, STOP OPERATION and service.
4. Although your upright will pick up pins, paper clips, and
other small objects, it is recommended that these be
removed from the floor before you vacuum. Failure to do
so may result in permanent damage to the motor suction
fan and its housing.
5. WARNING: Do not use your vacuum cleaner on damp
or wet surfaces. This will cause damage to the vacuum
cleaner and is dangerous to the user. Damage caused by
use on wet or damp surfaces is not covered under
warranty.
Slide upper handle section
over matching section of the
connector assembly. Insert
short screw into top hole and
long screw into the bottom
hole then tighten firmly until
handle is no longer loose.

6. REPLACE THE BELT EVERY 6 MONTHS.
7. Change the disposable filter dust bag at least once a
month—even if it is not full! The collected dust in the dust
bag can cause odor, attract moisture, act as a breeding
area and can affect the efficiency of the cleaner.
8. DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner over cord. The
revolving brush could damage the cord.

9. Use caution when vacuuming over area rug edges and

Disposable Paper Filter Dust Bags
Disposable paper filter dust bags play a very important role
in the efficiency of your ORECK vacuum cleaner. The purpose
of the paper bag is to trap dirt, but at the same time it must
be porous enough to allow air to pass through. If the paper
bag becomes clogged, no air can pass through the cleaner
and cleaning cannot take place, regardless of the cleaner’s
power.
To keep your cleaner operating at maximum efficiency,
change the dust bag frequently. DO NOT FILL ABOVE THE
LINE INDICATED ON THE DUST BAG.
Be sure the disposable paper filter dust bag is installed
properly.

All paper dust bags are not the same. Your ORECK
disposable dust bags have been designed to be used with the
ORECK cleaner. Using bags other than genuine ORECK TYPE
CC disposable bags will affect the cleaning ability of your
cleaner and could cause damage to it.

WARNING: Unplug cord from
electrical outlet before servicing.
The Belt
The belt on your vacuum cleaner controls the speed of the
revolving brush and is very important for the effective
operation of the cleaner. If the belt becomes stretched or cut,
it will cause the revolving brush to stop completely or slow
down. See instructions in the manual for replacing belt.
BAG REMOVAL:
1. Pull bag cardboard collar to
release bag dock door from
connector.
An extra belt is stored in the baseplate of your cleaner. When
buying replacement belts, use ONLY ORECK genuine belts.
Belts other than ORECK belts will not operate the revolving
brush correctly and may create undue stress which will cause
damage to the motor and brush bearings. Using belts other
than ORECK belts will void the warranty.
Lubrication
The vacuum cleaner motor bearings are factory lubricated
and seated. Further lubrication is not required.
General Cleaner Care
At least once a month, check for
and remove excessive lint, string
or hair from revolving brush.
2. Gently pull bag cardboard
collar upward out of the bag
dock.
Wipe the outside of the cleaner
with a damp cloth. Also clean
the connector deflector assembly
area, base of cleaner and fan
housing area. If there is dust in
the outer bag, vacuum it or
shake it out.
BAG INSTALLATION:
1. Slide the cardboard collar
completely onto bag dock
door.
A little preventative maintenance will keep your cleaner
looking new and will ensure continued cleaning effectiveness.
CAUTION—Wood Floors, Soft (Vinyl, Asphalt Tile,
etc.) Floor Surfaces and Polished Floor Finishes
Use floor and floor finish manufacturer’s recommended
methods of cleaning. The metal strip on the base of the
cleaner could be damaged if used on concrete or abrasive
surfaces, and, therefore, cause damage to wood floors, soft
(vinyl, asphalt tile, etc.) floor surfaces and polished floor
finishes. The roller brush may also scuff very soft finishes. Do
not operate the unit while in the upright and locked position.
Do not let the unit run while in any one stationary position for
any period of time. Keep the unit moving while in operation.

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.
