Whilst this is a photo copy, and some of the pages are a little askew, it was all readable and intact. A real bonus finding an old manual for a classic piece of kit that no other site had.
Great stuff.
The manuel was exactly what I needed and I received it promptly. Thanks

How to Check and Clear Hose Blockages
Low suction or poor pickup may be due to a blockage in the vacuum cleaner. 1. Remove hose and check suction at end of hose - if little or no suction, check disposable dust bag. Change if needed. If no improvement proceed to step 2. NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord before clearing hose. 2. Disconnect the hose adapter from the unit. Press adapter button on hose adapter and lift up. Check for any obstructions that may be in the hose. Any obstructions can be removed by using a blunt instrument to clear the hose. Flexing the hose may help loosen the clog. 3. Reinstall the hose after clearing the clog. Insert the hose adapter button into the bag compartment tube hole. Lift up on the hose adapter to be sure it is secured. NOTE: If no improvement in performance on carpet, proceed to following page. 1. Remove hose and check suction at end of hose.
