Important: Models This Tool Does NOT Fit

This head uses the standard Miele click-lock canister connection. It is incompatible and will not fit the following models:

• Miele Triflex Range (HX1 & HX2): These cordless stick vacuums use a proprietary electrical connection that does not accept canister tools.
• Miele Duoflex Range: These newer cordless models use a unique connection port incompatible with 32mm click-lock tools.
• Miele Upright Vacuums: Specifically the S7000 and Dynamic U1 series, which use an integrated hose system.
• Non-Locking Wands: It will not fit very old Miele models or other brands that use simple friction-fit (push-on) wands without the square locking hole.

Why a Turbo Brush Improves Cleaning Results

Standard floor heads rely on suction alone, which often fails to lift hair trapped in carpet fibres. A suction-powered turbo head solves three primary performance issues:

• Mechanical Agitation: The internal turbine uses the vacuum’s airflow to spin the brush bar, physically beating the carpet to release embedded dust and dander.
• Superior Hair Removal: Stiff nylon bristles are specifically designed to catch and lift long human hair and pet fur that flat nozzles typically miss.

Expert Insights: When to Use This Attachment

Professional cleaners and technicians recommend air-driven turbo heads for specific floor types where standard tools underperform:

• Low-to-Medium Pile Carpets: The standard choice for wool or synthetic carpets where a motorised head is too aggressive.
• Area Rugs & Mats: Because it is air-driven, the brush slows down if it hits a fringe, reducing the risk of damaging delicate rugs.
• Homes with Pets: A dedicated tool for high-traffic rugs to lift stubborn fur that standard suction cannot extract.

Installation and Maintenance Guide

• Installation: Align the tool with the Miele wand and push until the locking button clicks into the catch. To remove, press the release button and pull.
• Brush Maintenance: Check the roller every few weeks. Use scissors to cut away hair or threads wrapped around the brush to prevent the turbine from stalling.
• Blockage Prevention: If the brush stops spinning, check the suction inlet for large debris (like coins) that may be obstructing the internal fan.
