Hi, it's Jeremy from Crucial Vacuum.
To attach the upper handle to your Hoover Steam Vac remove the clean solution tank (upper tank) from the deep cleaner. Then, attach the upper handle to the lower handle by pushing the upper handle down onto lower one. Use the provided bolts to secure the handles. Push the bolts into the accompanying holes on the front of handle. If the bolts do not go through the holes easily, your handle is not pushed completely down. When the handle sections are completely together, squeeze the trigger on the upper handle to snap the trigger rod into place.
If you require further help with your assembly, you can find a step-by-step manual at:

I picked up a used Black & Decker HV8000 with various attachments and would also like to find the owners' manual. It was listed as discontinued on Amazon.com , although replacement filters are being sold online.
