Abstract
A hand held vacuum cleaner is provided with a frictionally held soft plastic nozzle that constitutes a snout for the vacuum cleaner casing. The fan for creating a flow of working air and the motor for driving the fan are parts of a subassembly that is selectively positionable within the casing. In one position of the subassembly, working air is drawn into the casing through the nozzle at the front thereof and is expelled at the rear of the housing. In the other position of the subassembly, working air is drawn in at the rear of the casing and is blown out the front thereof.
