Operation
Attachment Overview
Prolux is proud to include the highest quality attachments available! Through research
and development and trial and error… Prolux has finally perfected vacuum attachments,
matching durability with functionality! This is Cleaning…Reinvented!
•De-Shedder - Quickly and easily remove loose hair for long and short
haired dogs and cats. Effectively reduce shedding by up to 95% and
help with the removal of fleas. Should be used with De-Shedder comb
attachments.
•Soft Comb - Used for removing loose hair from clothes, pets, or other
fabric surfaces.
•Flea Comb - Used for both short and long-haired pets for the removal
of fleas. Run the comb through pet hair to remove fleas and other bugs
which may be embedded in the pet hair.
•Rake Comb – Used for cleaning, brushing and smoothing pet hair. Run
the comb through pet hair to remove any loose hair, dirt or to just give
your pet’s hair a smooth finish.
•De-Shedding Comb - Used for removal of loose or built-up pet hair.
Run the comb through the pet hair to comb out any loose hair.
•Cleaning Brush – Works great for sucking up any leftover hair on
upholstery, clothes, or hard surfaces. Run the brush over these areas to
suck up any loose or leftover hair.
•Crevice Tool – Get into those tight areas where hair may be hiding.
Great for upholstery and couch cushions.
•Hair Clipper – Used for trimming hair. Give your pet a quick cut
without all the cleanup. Just clip the hair and it’s sucked up into the dirt
bin.
•Clipper Guides – Used to guard the clipper blade to give you the
perfect length for your pet’s hair. Slide the guard onto the clipper blade
and get to cutting.

Vacuum Speed Options
The 4 in 1 Pet Grooming Vacuum comes with 3 power/speed options based on what type of
grooming you’re currently doing. Choose between these 3 options by pressing the +/- button on
top of the main unit:
Eco Mode for Trimming:
Standard Mode for De-Shedding:
Boost Mode for Flea Removal:
13
De-Shedding
Note: During use, please pay attention to the comb attachment edge, do not use excessive force which can
cause scratches to the skin.
Note: Push comb cleaner button regularly during use to clean off built up hair on comb attachment
Tip: Placing the vacuum unit further away from your pet will lessen the amount of noise being introduced to
your pet, so if your pet is skittish, we would recommend doing this until they get used to the vacuum sound.
1. Attach the De-Shedder attachment to the hose end and unlock the comb attachment by sliding the
comb lock button sideways. This will allow the comb to unlock and allow the comb edge to stick
out. If a different comb attachment is needed review the comb replacement section for steps on
replacement.
2. Once the proper comb attachment has been selected turn the vacuum on and select the proper
vacuum speed for the type of task, you’ll be doing whether that be de-shedding (Standard Mode)
or flea removal (Boost Mode).
3. Run the comb through your pet’s hair making sure you’re not using excessive force downward and
allowing the comb to run smoothly through your pet’s hair. You don’t want to scratch your pet’s
skin or be pulling the hair to the point it’s painful for your pet. As the hair/pests are pulled out the
suction port on the de-shedder attachment will suck up the hair and dispose of it into the dirt bin.
Any hair which has built up on the comb attachment can be removed by pressing the comb cleaner
button on the back of the De-Shedder attachment. This will push the built-up hair off and into the
attachment suction port. Any leftover hair can be removed by hand and placed into the suction
port.
4. Continue combing your pet’s hair while also keeping an
eye on the amount of hair in the dirt bin and listening for
any changes to the sound of the vacuum motor. A higher
pitched sound, or loss of suction, can mean a clog has built
up. If this happens review the maintenance section.
14
Hair Clipper
Note: Do not touch the blade if the guide guard is not installed.
Note: Please be careful on the soft parts of the pet's skin and do not use excessive force which
can cause scratches to the skin.
Note: Clipper attachment will require (2) AA batteries which are sold separately.
1. Attach the clipper attachment to the hose end and select which guide guard is
preferred. We would recommend starting with a longer guide option and testing the
length. If a shorter length is desired replace it with a shorter guard until the desired
length has been reached. Review guide guard
replacement section.
2. Once the attachment is connected and the proper
guide guard has been selected you can then turn
on the vacuum and select the correct speed. For
trimming you’ll want to use Eco Mode.
3. Turn on the clippers by flipping the switch on
the clippers to ON and begin clipping your pet’s
hair while also keeping an eye on the amount of
hair in the dirt bin and listening for any changes
to the sound of the vacuum motor. A higher
pitched sound, or loss of suction, can mean a
clog has built up. If this happens review the
maintenance section.
Comb and Guide Guard Replacement

1. Unlock comb if locked by sliding the comb lock button sideways.

until it locks into place.

To change the clipper guide guard:
1. If the clipper has a guard installed already you can unlock the guard by pressing
upward on the back of the guard. Press upward and this will unlock the guard from
the clipper and allow you to then slide the guard off removing it from the clipper
blade.
2. To install a guard, slide the back of the guard onto the clipper blade first, and into the
notches cut into the sides of the clipper end. Slide the guard down the notches until
