11. Troubleshooting10. Operate Right
How to vacuum easier and faster with no back strain.
1. Stand upright, with the bent hand piece section parallel to the oor.
2. Hold the bent hand piece with one hand at a comfortable arm’s length.
3. Move forward and away from the power point.
4. Use easy underarm swinging motion when detail cleaning and short dabs when spot
cleaning, always standing upright.
5. Once the end of the power cord has been reached and work completed, return to the
power point along the cord line and disconnect the power cord from the power point.
6. If work is not completed move to the next area, connect power cord to the nearest power
point and repeat steps 1 through 6.
7. Remove back pack by sliding the one of the straps off the shoulder, while raising the other
arm/shoulder to hold strap in place. Slowly lower the shoulder and lower the back pack to
the oor, do not drop.
8. If work is completed disconnect power cord from power point then wind from the back pack
towards the end of the power cord to reduce likelihood of cable twists. In the process check
for nicks, cuts, fractures, and knots.

Step 1:
• Rotate the dome lid to suit left or right handed vacuuming.
• Loosen the shoulder straps.
• Adjust the length at top of shoulder strap (if required).
• Lift the back pack by one shoulder strap.
• Then slide your free arm into the other strap.
Step 2:
• Tighten the hipband so the machine rests
comfortably on your hips.
Step 3:
• Pull down on shoulder straps for a comfortable t.
• Do up chest strap to secure back pack.
Step 4:
• Make sure the harness is resting on your hips.
IMPORTANT TIP:
If the back pack feels heavy or uncomfortable, it is
likely you are not wearing it correctly. Contact Pacvac
for further advice.
9. Work Right
LOOK AT THE LAYOUT (refer to the Fishbone Method below)
• Find the most easily located power point. This is your starting location at the sh’s head.
Your turnaround is the ‘tail’.
• Check the room layout (position of desks, tables, chairs, ttings etc.)
• Check the condition of the oor - how dirty it is on a scale of 1 to 10.
PLAN THE PROCESS
• See in your mind the shbone method over the entire area or room to be cleaned.
• Decide which areas are to be detail cleaned (the spine), or spot cleaned (the ribs).
CLEAN SMARTER
• Work away from the power point.
• Work one side of the shbone towards tail. Then back the other side towards head.
• Work to the plan - long strokes for the detail clean area and short dabs for the spot cleans.
