Quick Kleen® Fan Chamber (On some models)
NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord before cleaning.
The clear, removable fan chamber cover provides
easy inspection, cleaning, and maintenance of the
fan chamber. Removing the cover provides easy
access to the motor fan. Grease buildup, dirt, or
other obstructions, visible through the fan cover,
should be removed. To clean the fan area, take
off the chrome bottom plate by releasing the two
cam locks (see Brush Roll Belt, Figure 1 and 2).
Remove the belt from, the motor pulley, then
loosen and remove the screws on either side of
the fan cover, as indicated by the arrows. Push
the cam locks outward against the wheels to lift
the cover from the cleaner base. Dirt and
obstructions can easily be cleared; however,
caked grease may need to be scraped from the
cover and the cleaner. If the fan does not turn
freely, it also should be removed for cleaning. To remove the fan, place a wrench over
the motor pulley. Hold the fan blades with one hand and turn the wrench
counterclockwise. Remove the motor pulley and lift the fan off the motor shaft. Clean
the area and replace the fan over the motor shaft. Tighten the motor pulley snugly
clockwise with the wrench. If necessary, replace the fan cover or the gasket with
replacement parts.
Be sure the gasket is in place. Reposition the fan cover by first placing the exhaust
end into place between the large rear wheels. Seat fan cover firmly. Next replace the
belt and bottom plate as the pressure from the bottom plate helps seal the fan cover.
Start the two screws by hand to be sure they are straight, then tighten.
