GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS (only for 3-wire models, those that include 2 blades and 1 grounding pin) This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER
- Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance is for use on a nominal 240-volt circuit. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configurations as the plug. No adapter should be used with this appliance. If the supply cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the special cord Part #I -425436-000.
WARNING: Electrical shock could occur if used outdoors or on wet surface.

FLOOR AND WALL BRUSH: Cleans linoleum, tile, bare wood or concrete floors, papered or painted walls and ceilings. This 10-inch brush has long, soft bristles that dust and buff at the same time. Inserted into the lower wand section, the brush will lock into place and then swivel conveniently as you clean.
ROUND DUSTING BRUSH: Cleans bookcases, lampshades, screens, televisions, picture frames, baseboards, and all metal, wood, or molded plastic furniture . . . any place around your home. The long soft bristles won't mar your furniture but will delicately lift the surface dust and whisk it away.

NOTE: To clean the brushes, just apply suction from the hose directly to the bristles.
CREVICE TOOL: Cleans all hard-to-reach places including deep furniture crevices, button cushions, bookcases, baseboard corners, and automobile upholstery. It's also easier to clean behind ranges and refrigerators.

The flat area of the tube seal should face towards the front of the power nozzle. Plug the external hose cord into the outlet on the top of the tool caddy (Refer to #7, page 4) and the power nozzle.

PAPER BAG REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT NOTE: Disconnect cleaner from electrical outlet for maintenance. Replace the paper bag when approximately one-half full. Set the tank on end with the exhaust vent (rear bell) on the floor. Grasp the bell clamps in each hand. Holding your hands toward the rear of the clamp, pull outward. Grasp the. front end bell (the hose may still be connected), gently pull outward. Take care not to spill any dirt. Pull off paper bag and discard.
The cloth bag in the tank does not always have to be removed for cleaning. If cleaning is required, remove the bag and shake dirt into a suitable container. Replace with a new paper bag. Place the hole in the paper bag over the metal fitting inside the front end bell. Place the front end bell back onto the tank by sliding the paper bag into the tank. The chrome end plate must slide over the edges of the tank. Hold in place and fasten the bell clamps to both sides. Clamps will "snap" into place when fully seated. Continue normal operation of your vacuum cleaner.
FlLTRATION SYSTEM (optional) Royal's filtration system for over 99.9% "fresh" exhaust air. This system assures you that fine powdery dust will not be blown back into the air you breathe or onto your furniture and carpets again.
*Examine the Five Layers of Filtration in Your Tank Vacuum Circulating air lifts dust and dirt from your carpets and transports it through the hose to a 175 square inch double layer disposable paper bag (I)*.The second layer of the paper bag contains electrostatically charged fibers (2)*. The air passes through the double layered paper bag, depositing dirt and lint. It then passes into a finely woven cotton twill cloth bag (3) with 160 square inches. The air finally passes through a double-sided filter pad. The MICRO FRESH filter pad consists of an electrostatically charged fiber material (4) attached to a reticulated flexible urethane foam (5). When used as a system, the air expelled at the rear exhaust is over 99.9% "fresh". *Not included on all models.

Filter Pads
NOTE: Unplug tank before changing filter. The filter pad is located between the filter bag and tank motor. Check your filter pad periodically for dirt build-up. The filter pad should be changed at least every six months or when three paper bags have been used. TO INSTALL, remove front end bell and cloth bag. Drop filter into tank with white side facing towards you. Put cloth bag back into place. Attach front end bell and continue normal operation of your tank.
Replaceable
Paper Bags (optional)
MICRO FRESH disposable paper bags are lined with electrostatically charged fibers that trap fine dust and pollen particles down to 0.1 microns in size. To remove and replace, refer to page 9. Enhance the performance of your tank vacuum with MICRO FRESH high filtration paper bags and filter pads. See an Authorized Royal Dealer or a participating retailer to purchase an assortment of MICRO FRESH products.
HOW TO USE YOUR TANK FOR BLOWING NOTE: Unplug tank before changing Hose Connection. (1) Simply connect the hose to the rear end bell of the tank instead of the front end bell. You'll be using the exhaust end instead of the suction end. Be conscious of where you'll be blowing the dust. Our suggestion is to always blow it toward a dampened sheet or towel which will trap the dust and not send it flying into the air. Then, you simply toss the "dusty" sheet or towel into your automatic washer for cleaning. Don't be concerned if the paper filter bag is not empty when you use the blower. The tank's MICRO FRESH Filtration System will entrap the dust and not allow it to recirculate during this use. (MICRO FRESH filter pads optional.) When you finish using your Royal tank as a blower, unplug your tank and reconnect the hose to the front end bell for vacuum cleaning.
