Question

Kevod Horav Shlit”a Can one stand on a vacuum cleaner that was left next to a bookcase, to reach a high sefer to learn on Shabbat, after all it is muktza?

Answer

Horav Shlomo Miller”s Shlit”a opinion is that one may do so, when not touching the vacuum cleaner with their hands or something attached to them.

The above is permitted even if the vacuum cleaner moves when standing on it.
