Thanks Ben! So helpful.Waiting for that Classic 9700 or a 994-96. Only thing I don't understand about the 886 is the height adjustment for the brush roll. Seems like there is no switch and I didn't get a manual. Bill |

Bill,
How to adjust your 886 for the correct brush roll height for your carpet:
There is a black knob located just behind the motor and above the rear wheels. There is also a small black button called the Adjust-O-Rite" button which is located on the center of the belt access cap on the front of the floor nozzle. Turn the black knob counter clockwise to raise the floor nozzle and clockwise to lower it.
Turn on the machine and turn the knob clockwise as you watch the Adjust-O-Rite button. When the button gets sucked in, your Royal is properly adjusted for that carpet.
You may need to re-adjust the the height of the floor nozzle for each type of carpet you have and you will also need to re-adjust the floor nozzle lower as the bag fills with dirt and suction is reduced.
Hope this helps,
-Stan |

I did not know what the adjust-o-rite was for. |
