Maintenance and care
Checking rotating floor brush and drive belt
You should check your vacuum cleaner’s rotating
floor brush and drive belt regularly for wear or
damage. You should also clean the brush and brush
ends of strings, hair, and carpet fibers. These can
wrap around the brush and hamper its ability to
effectively clean your carpet. Also remove any debris
that has accumulated under the brush cover.
1. Unplug cleaner from electrical outlet.
2. Place handle in low position and turn
vacuum cleaner over so bottom side is up.
3. Remove the five screws with a Phillips head
screwdriver. Lift the brush cover off.
4. Grasp rotating floor brush at both ends and lift.
5. Clean strings, hair and other debris from
rotating floor brush, paying particular
attention to brush ends.
6. Clean strings, hair and other debris from
motor pulley and drive belt areas.
7. Check drive belt carefully for wear, cuts or
stressed areas.
8. Check air passageway for obstructions.
Remove debris from this area.
