“Slimt” Electric Hose*
The“slimt”style 4-wire swivel electric crush-
proof hose has a handle with 360°
rotation to minimize kinks, eort, and
in-hand weight.
For use with the electric brush.
IMPORTANT: Make sure power is turned o before removing the hose
and handle from the wand. Arcing or damage to the electrical contacts
can occur if the wand is removed while brush power is on.
Hose Handling: Hold the hose and handle in any way you nd to be the
most comfortable. With this new style handle, numerous hand
positions are oered and reduce strain and increase ease of use.
Also, for added ease while vacuuming, try keeping the hose behind you
rather than out in front of you. Use one hand to hold the handle and the
other hand to hold and guide the hose. Again, do what feels comfortable
to you.
Three-Position Switch:
Allows vacuum to be con-
trolled from the handle.
