How does one use the wand/hose?

push the yellow button( the one that looks ribbed) and pull it out from the top( top being little air cap whatever it is) it is like a second arm that extends out of the wand- then getting it back in you also push the yellow button not sure why that works the wand is fairly clumsy but it will work.

Just attach the hose to the white tube on the top of the blue head. Love it, works great! And when it quits working you can just buy replacement brushes.

I personally hold the Wand in my right hand, using my left hand to actuate the On/Off lever. Once lever is actuated (Forward to turn ON, Pull back to shut off), you then only need the one hand to hold the wand. The On/Offlever stays in place to whatever position you move it too.

Good answers from Ray and Don. I like the extending the wand idea. Personally i would try pumping the pressure to the max and adjusting the nozzle for a stream rather than mist spray. Be sure to wear protective gear as you are likely to get the spray on you.

No there is no way to relax the coil hose. That's one of its drawbacks and something other reviewers cautioned about. One guy had the Dyson fall down a flight of stairs as he used the coil hose. Everything else releases with a click button. That said, have had the machine since summer and still amazed at the power of the suction.

It depends. If the item is light enough and not too tall, the motorized floor brush will pick it up. Otherwise, you have to take off the floor brush and use the end of the wand or another attachment. Or you can raise the brush slightly off the floor to get the item past the lip and into the brush. (This is all pretty much the same for most vacuum cleaners, although some may accept taller heights and heavier items.)

I do not know, I had asked the same question. What I ended up doing was, I bought the the hose, wand and head. Already together. Now I have a spare head. It stinks we couldn't get a wand, for that head. I hope you, have better luck then me.

I have no idea. I don't use mine because I feel like I am fighting with a tiger. I can't even get the beater wand off the handle. I get exhausted trying to use it, so I just store it in the shed.

Hello, I would have to see a pic of your wall inlet opened and where the hose goes into the wand? Thats the only way to tell.

You need to buy the arm and flange. The kit includes a head, hose and wand.

It's easy, you click the middle button on the wand attachment when it is in the normal handle position, once you click the "red button," you are able to remove the wand, you than flip the wand into the bottom accordion tube which then allows you to vacuum items on the floor, crown molding, etc. So it takes less than 10 seconds.

The button is on the right, so if you're right handed, you'd use your thumb. Hose is at the bottom.

I do not know but it seems to me the wand is unnecessary unless it's a handicap cap scenario. Sorry u couldn't be more helpful.

Mine has an extra wand that use. It is attached between the hose and the tunnel on the left aide (if viewing it from the back). Hope this helps.
