Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Hi,

Well, I've put New York behind me plus all the vacuums I had except for my Miele Capricorn. It's been doing an especially great job as I've moved into a place with carpeting already installed. The living room rug is brand new and not a problem but the one in the bedroom is only surface clean.

I've been amazed at the way the vacuum's filled almost two fresh bags in a row in just the first two days of going over that one, not so large room. It appears the prior renter had on hand only a Dirt Devil stick vac and a really beat up canister that both merited no more than throwing out.

Nonetheless, my problem is not that but that after pushing on the pedal for the Miele's SEB-236 PN's height adjustment a few times with my toe to get the height set-up "just right" (should have left it on "1" in the first place) the thing got stuck on setting "3". I can't get it to engage again and move me back to setting "1".

I at first thought this was something I could easily fix myself, but you know Miele. What's the name of the tool that undoes the weirdo screws on the PN's sole plate? Can I buy one? Indie guys can pass on any helpful info by PMing me. My lips are sealed and I promise I won't blow your cover. Thanks.

Thanks Lucky1, that's good to know. Do you have any idea of how much of a Miele vac's assembly is handled by robotics?
