But like most of the new users, you might have no idea how to operate a it. No one learns anything from their mother’s belly. This guide will give you the knowledge to operate any vacuum cleaner you bring into your house.
Prepare the area
You have to clean every section of your house but the furniture can be a barrier on this project. You know very well that it’s hard to reach tight spots with a vacuum cleaner. So, to perfectly clean every single pixel of your house, you might move some of your furniture. This can save you a lot more effort rather then moving everything over & over while cleaning.
Clean your furniture
There is dust all over your furniture. If not, you can skip this step. If you clean your house and then you remember that your furniture is dusty. Then you’ll simply clear the dust away from your furniture. But, this action will definitely mess up your clean floor again. We don’t want you to work all day. So that’s why on the first step you have to dust off all your furniture. Don’t try to do it with the vacuum cleaner. It’s not made for this type of job. You can use a soft brush or a microfiber cloth. Using other clothes can scratch your furniture because of their structure to hold dust and act like a sandpaper.
Know your machine
If it’s your first time using a vacuum cleaner, you’ll need to see the manual to navigate the power button. But I don’t recommend you to do this all day. Try all the keys on your machine one by one after turning the machine on in the same way. You’ll get what key is for what. And this will take only a minute. After you get all the keys and their use, let’s move on to our cleaning techniques.
Attachment Arsenal
Your vacuum cleaner might come with two or three attachments. Most of the vacuum cleaner comes with various types of attachments to use in particular situations. Every of the equipment has it’s own use. So, don’t throw it. Try every of them and use your IQ to get where and how you can use them.
Set power perfectly
Not all but some of the vacuum cleaner come with a power adjustment button. If the dust is very old and gummy or a bold layer of dust, you can use the high power option. Otherwise the medium setting is best of most situation. Because long time high power can heat up your vacuum cleaner and hamper it’s lifestan. Although you can adjust the right power on your according to your need and the dust quantity.
Do your job slowly if possible
I know you’re using a vacuum cleaner to save your time. But if you don’t go slow, there might some dust particles left behind. That’s why doing it slowly perfectly sucks all the dust and clean the floor completely. Though you can rush if you have a higher end vacuum cleaner and high quality attachments. But it doesn’t mean you have to use the full power of your vacuum cleaner to save time. Remember, I said it can cause heating, and heating for long time is dangerous for every electronics. This might cause a hazard. I want you to stay safe, so avoid full power all time.
Clean the edges
You’re cleaning happily but some hidden spots like under your furniture and the edges of the room can get skipped. Everytime you clean, carefully clean your edges so that no dust left behind on the edges. Otherwise it will spread all over the floor again. And you’ll have to do it again just for a little mistake. If you don’t want to do it again, clean the edges carefully so that nothing’s left behind.
Empty When Full
When you’re cleaning, sometimes the vacuum cleaner can get full because of a huge amount of dust. This often happens to me. In this situation, if you don’t empty the dust inside, the vacuum cleaner will not work perfectly and loose it’s efficiency. This will skip dust on the floor. If your vacuum cleaner collects dust on it’s built in chamber or a trash bag, get it outside to a dust bin and clear the chamber or throw the trash bag and equip a new one according to your vacuum cleaner. And you’ll be ready to go. And that’s all how you can use a vacuum cleaner. If you’re interested to know more you can visit our site.
