Position nozzle cover on front lip of
nozzle base. Press cover into
place.
Turn nozzle over and replace screws.
Stretch belt back and attach to
motor pulley.
Hold opposite end of agitator in place.
Push belt end forward, rotating end plate
until it slides into place. Turn agitator,
making sure it rotates freely.
If belt is not broken, pull it off the
motor pulley (A).
Return nozzle to original position,
lift off nozzle cover.
Lift up end of agitator. Remove old
belt from agitator pulley and replace
with new belt. Lettering on belt must be
visible.
How to replace
Disconnect cleaner from electrical
outlet and disconnect power nozzle
from extension wands.
Turn nozzle over and unscrew the
4 recessed Phillips head screws.
Note: Do not remove the 3 screws in
the triangle formation as these hold
the motor in place.
When to replace
For some models, the belt is visible
through the belt check window on top of
the nozzle. If the belt is broken, the motor
pulley will be visible through the window.
The belt should be checked from time to
time to be sure it is in good condition. To
check, remove the nozzle cover (see fol-
lowing section). Replace the belt if it is
stretched, cut, or broken.
Belt replacement
The belt in your power nozzle drives the
agitator. It has been designed specifical-
ly for use in this cleaner and is important
for effective operation.
What to buy
There are other belts manufactured that
are similar in shape and size, but are not
designed for the HOOVER power nozzle.
Such belts do not operate the agitator cor-
rectly and may create stress which could
damage your power nozzle. Use only a
genuine HOOVER Belt No. 38528-011
when a belt replacement is necessary.
If filter is dirty, open grid on cas-
sette and remove filter. Wash filter
in warm water or replace it with a new
one. A dry filter must be put back into
cleaner.
