Brush Roll
The brush roll turns as it sweeps and combs the carpet nap.
Remove hair and threads from the brush roll so it continues
brushing the carpet. To maintain the most effi cient cleaning,
the bristles must touch the carpet. To test the bristle length,
hold a ruler against the underneath side of the cleaner. If the
bristles no longer touch the ruler, replace the brush roll.
3. Lift left end of brush roll.

Brush Roll Belt
The brush roll belt turns the brush roll to agitate, sweep, and
comb the carpet nap. Check the belt regularly to be sure it is
in good condition. Replace the belt if it stretches, cracks or
loses tension. Cut away any hair or threads wound around
the brush roll or the belt pulley because the buildup could
cause the belt to rotate unevenly.
How To Replace Brush Roll Belt
NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical
cord before replacing belt. Belt pulleys can
become hot during normal use. To prevent
injury, avoid touching the motor shaft when
changing the belt.
