Setup
- Ensure Compatibility: Verify that your Dyson vacuum is a V7 or V8 model. This adaptor is specifically designed for these series.
- Attach to Wand: Locate the quick-release end of your Dyson vacuum wand. Align the adaptor tool with the wand until it clicks securely into place. The red quick-release button on the adaptor should align with the corresponding slot on the wand.
- Attach Cleaning Head: Connect your desired Dyson cleaning head (e.g., soft dusting brush, crevice tool) to the other end of the Up Top Adaptor Tool. Ensure it clicks securely.
The tool is now ready for use. Always ensure all connections are secure before operating your vacuum.
Operating Instructions
The Up Top Adaptor Tool features multiple adjustable angles to facilitate cleaning in hard-to-reach areas.
- Adjusting the Angle: The tool has a pivot point that allows it to bend. Gently push or pull the two sections of the adaptor to change its angle. It will lock into several predefined positions, typically including a straight (180-degree) position and a 90-degree angled position.
- Cleaning High Surfaces: For cleaning tops of shelves, ceiling fan blades, or light fixtures, adjust the adaptor to an acute angle (e.g., 90 degrees) to position the cleaning head appropriately.
- Cleaning Low or Awkward Spaces: The adaptor can also be used to reach under furniture or around obstacles by adjusting its angle to suit the space.
- Extension: When set to the straight (180-degree) position, the adaptor acts as an extension, adding approximately 7-8 inches to your vacuum's reach.
Always ensure the adaptor is securely locked into a position before applying pressure during cleaning to prevent accidental movement.
Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Up Top Adaptor Tool, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the adaptor with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not immerse the tool in water.
- Inspect Connections: Periodically check the quick-release mechanisms for any debris or damage that might prevent a secure connection.
- Storage: Store the adaptor in a clean, dry place away from extreme temperatures.
