Maintenance and Customer Service
Your Oreck vacuum cleaner is a product of precise engineering. The
motor bearings are permanently lubricated and should not be oiled. If
you require additional information or have problems with your Oreck
appliance, you may call ORECK Commercial Customer Service at:
USA & Canada: 1-800-989-4244
Please specify the model number and serial/code number which can be
found on the data plate on the back of the vacuum.
Save your sales or purchase slip. Should your Oreck appliance require
warranty service in the U.S.A., present this slip to the Authorized Service
Center as your proof of purchase date or, in Canada, call customer service.
Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break
down, grounding provides a safe path of least resistance for electrical
current, reducing the risk of electric shock. The cord for this appliance
has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. It must
only be plugged into an electrical outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not
modify plug provided with appliance.
DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor
can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician
or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
grounded. If not, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-
volt circuit. It has a grounding plug similar
to the example shown. Make sure the
appliance is connected to an outlet with
the same configuration as the plug. No
adapter should be used with this
appliance.
Motor Protection System
Fan blockage may cause the fan motor to shut off to avoid over-heating.
If this happens, turn power off and unplug the vacuum cleaner. Remove
top cover and brush roll cover (See: To Adjust or Replace Brush).
Remove any blockage inside fan housing. Reassemble and discontinue
use for approximately 30 min. The motor will have cooled and the
cleaner will be ready to use.
Note: The vacuum cleaner must remain unplugged for 30 minutes
for motor to cool and system to reset.
