Abstract:
A surface cleaning apparatus is provided with a nozzle cover having multiple functions, including sealing an opening for an above-the-floor vacuum hose, aiding in removal of a suction nozzle from the apparatus and acting as a handle for the suction nozzle upon removal of the suction nozzle from the apparatus. A locking mechanism prevents the suction nozzle from accidentally releasing from the apparatus when the vacuum hose is installed.
