To attach the hose and tools on a Bissell PowerForce Bagless Vacuum, follow these steps:
1. Locate the hose attachment port on the vacuum cleaner. It is usually located at the back or side of the vacuum.
2. Align the hose with the attachment port and push it in firmly until it clicks into place. Make sure it is securely attached.
3. Attach the desired tool or accessory to the other end of the hose. Bissell PowerForce vacuums usually come with various tools such as a crevice tool or upholstery brush.
4. Ensure that the tool is securely attached to the hose by giving it a gentle tug.
5. You are now ready to use the hose and tools for specific cleaning tasks, such as reaching tight corners or cleaning upholstery.
Remember to detach the hose and tools when you are done using them and store them properly for future use.
The Bissell PowerForce bagless vacuum is an excellent upright vacuum that provides a great cleaning performance without the need to replace the dust bag. However, when it comes to cleaning above-ground surfaces, you need suction power. The Bissell PowerForce Helix attachments come with the vacuum and are easy to install and locate.
PowerForce Bagless Attachments
Whether you have the older PowerForce 6583 series model or the newer PowerForce Helix, the attachment accessories are the same. These attachments can help you clean dust that is hard to reach:
- Crevice tool.
- Dusting brush.
- Hose.
- Extension wand.
The 6583 model has the crevice tool located on the side of the appliance, just above the extension wand, and the dusting brush is in the back center. The Helix model has the extension wand and crevice tool in the center and the dusting brush on the side.
Attaching the Hose and Accessories
To start, attach the end of the hose to the back of the vacuum and twist to lock it in place. Then connect the other end of the hose to the bottom-right side of the vacuum above the wheel and apply slight pressure until it seals. You can pull from this end to clean above-floor surfaces.
The extension tool, crevice wand, and dusting brush can be easily placed into the premolded cutouts on the machine.
Using the PowerForce Hose
Start by ensuring the vacuum is in the upright position. Pull the hose from the bottom right side until it detaches. Press the Bissell’s power button with your foot, and you’ll feel the air suctioning through the open end of the hose.
You can use the open hose as a tool by itself for a quick vacuum of above-ground surfaces. However, all the other accessories can be attached to the end of the hose for more precise cleaning.
Using the PowerForce Attachments
Each Bissell tool makes it easy to clean a specific area of your home. The extension wand makes it possible to reach high places, such as ceiling fans and door frames, without needing a step stool. Conversely, it can also make cleaning baseboards easier without requiring you to hunch over.
Just like the extension wand, the crevice tool pops into the end of the extension wand. Building your tool attachments this way makes it possible to reach small areas that are hard to clean and get concentrated suction.
The dusting brush fits into the hose or the extension wand. This accessory helps to remove dust from upholstery surfaces, such as curtains, couches, or pillows.
