Operating Instructions
To Operate
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 disposable bags will affect
the cleaning ability of your cleaner and could
cause damage to it.
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.
Press the ON(l) - OFF(O) switch on handle assembly when
ready to operate.
General Information
The Belt
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
Lubrication
The vacuum cleaner motor bearings are factory lubricated
and sealed. Further lubrication is not required.
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.
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.
General Cleaner Care
At least once a month, check revolving brush for excessive
lint, string or hair. Remove this material.
Wipe the inside and outside
of the outer vinyl bag and 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 effectiveness.
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.
8. Do not run the vacuum cleaner over cord. The
revolving brush could damage the cord.
9. Use caution when vacuuming over area rug edges and
fringe.
Cord Strain Relief
The cord strain relief located on the upper section of the handle
is designed to reduce stress on the cord at the base of the
handle.
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.
Should the power cord come
loose from the cord strain
relief, it can be easily
reattached.

the cord strain relief, grasp the

How to Replace a Worn Belt
Operating Instructions
WARNING: Unplug cord from
electrical outlet before servicing.
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.
Remove the replacement
belt from the storage
channel.
Celoc® Hypo-Allergenic Filter System: 2005HH
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 the inside of the outer bag be
cleaned. Vacuum the inside of the outer bag or hand wash,
turned inside out, 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.
Remove the door by
removing the hold down
screw located on side of

To Adjust or Replace Brush
Stuffing or Blockage
Under certain conditions it is possible to stuff or block the intake
tube and the lower tube assembly. If your vacuum cleaner does
not pick up properly, or makes unusual noise and the outer bag
does not fluff up or balloon open, follow the following steps:
WARNING: Unplug cord from
electrical outlet before servicing.
To determine if the brush is
worn, place a firm straight
edge across the nozzle
opening. If brush bristles
do not extend beyond
baseplate, brush should be
adjusted.
WARNING: Unplug cord from electrical
outlet before servicing.
1. Check for blockage at the
mouth of the intake
opening. See illustration A.
