Operating Instructions  
To Operate  
change the dust bag frequently. DO NOT FILL ABOVE THE  
LINE INDICATED ON THE DUST BAG.  
Make sure the disposable paper filter dust bag is in place.  
DO NOT operate the cleaner without a paper filter dust bag.  
Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet. Choose from the  
low and high speed settings by pressing the ON/LOW (l)  
ON/HIGH (ll) - OFF (O) switch on handle assembly when  
ready to operate.  
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.  
General Information  
The performance of your new cleaner greatly depends upon  
care and maintenance. The instructions in this manual will  
guide you in performing basic care and maintenance. To  
obtain the most satisfying years of service read the instructions  
and keep them handy for future reference.  
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.  
Operating Recommendations  
This new ORECK XL High-Speed Upright is one of the finest,  
fastest, and strongest units in its class. You’ll love the way it  
cleans, gets under things, and it’s SO lightweight and easy to  
use.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Lubrication  
The vacuum cleaner motor bearings are factory lubricated  
and sealed. Further lubrication is not required.  
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.  
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.  
General Cleaner Care  
At least once a month, check  
for and remove excessive lint,  
string or hair from revolving  
brush.  
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.  
A little preventative maintenance will keep your cleaner  
looking new and will ensure continued cleaning effec-  
tiveness.  
8. DO NOT run the vacuum cleaner over cord. The  
revolving brush could damage the cord.  
9. Use caution when vaccuming over area rug edges  
and fringe  
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.  
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,

Celoc® Hypo-Allergenic Filter System  
Troubleshooting Guide  
The CELOC SMMS outer bag of your vacuum cleaner is high  
filtration medical material designed to filter the smallest of  
dust particles. It is important that the inside of the outer bag  
be cleaned. Turned inside out, vacuum the inside of the outer  
bag or hand wash, with warm water and air dry. For best  
results, the CELOC SMMS outer bag should be replaced  
once a year. The CELOC layered disposable inner dust bag  
must be replaced once a month even if it is not full. Change it  
more often if it is used in extremely dirty areas. Increase the  
cleaning power of your vacuum by changing the bag often.  
WARNING: Unplug cord from  
electrical outlet before servicing.
