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
fibres. 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.
Unplug cleaner from electrical outlet.
Place handle in Low position and turn vacuum cleaner
over so bottom side is up.
Remove the four screws as shown with a Phillips head
screwdriver. Lift the Brush Cover off.
Note: The Power Trak models have an additional
screw which needs to be removed. See the 2nd
illustration.
