“Do you have to shut off vacuum to switch knob from carpet to wood floor adjustment height?”

1-5 of 5 Answers

• I would recommend it unless you place it on the hard surface first. Most upright vacuums I have owned in the price range and lower slant forward to keep from falling over backwards and this pushes the brush roll into the carpet and would cause faster burn out of the belt. Less resistance on the hard surface and lower height so not as much of a risk.

• Hi Aimeenola! The vacuum does not need to be turned off in order to use the adjust, but we recommend powering the vacuum off before doing so. Hope this helps! -Michael, Hoover Customer Care

• No, you can continue operating the vacuum and change height adjustments with no problem.

• No. You can just return it to the upright position, tilt it toward you and turn the knob.
