I hazard a guess that the dealer said that for securing a sale but on the other hand PN's are great for deep down dirt removal in my experience.
If your Dirt Devil has a small bag capacity and concentrated suction flow, it will do a great job with an air driven turbo brush fitted to it. Don’t expect deep down grit removal, but rather basic top soil removal, better than suction only in my experience.
Just depends on what brand you get based on the measurement of the actual tube - if it is 3.2cm/32mm then a lot of tools already exist on the market, if it s 3.5cm or 35mm, Bosch friction fit style turbo brush might do, if you can get one in Canada. By the looks of your close up photo I may be correct that it looks like 3.5cm/35mm fittings but my eyes might be deceiving me. Check Amazon in your country. There are a few main sized turbo brushes you could buy for this model.
