The agitator brush roll
When to replace
When agitator brushes are worn, the
agitator should be replaced.
To check condition of brushes, discon-
nect cleaner from electrical outlet.
Move edge of a card across bottom
plate while turning agitator. To maintain
cleaning effectiveness, replace agitator
if brushes do not touch card.
What to buy
Your cleaner requires either a 13” or 15”
agitator. When purchasing a new agita-
tor, ask for one of the following:
13” - HOOVER part No. 48414110
15” - HOOVER part No. 48414115.
How to replace
Disconnect cleaner from electrical
outlet.
Remove bottom plate, belt and agitator
following directions in “The belt” section
beginning with Fig. 3-18.
Discard old agitator.
Continue following the directions in “The
belt” section to reposition belt, new
agitator and bottom plate.
Installing groomers
Lift off both old edge groomers and slide
new edge groomers into position as
shown.
Reposition bottom plate and secure with
(4) Phillips head screws.
Thermal protector
An internal thermal protector has been
designed into your cleaner to protect it
from overheating.
When the thermal protector activates,
the cleaner will stop running. If this
happens, proceed as follows:
1. Turn the cleaner OFF and discon-
nect it from the electrical outlet.
2. Check secondary and final filters for
dirt accumulation.
3. Refer to “Clearing blockages”
section.
4. When cleaner is unplugged and
the motor cools for 30 minutes, the
thermal protector automatically resets
and cleaning may continue.
If the thermal protector continues to
activate after following the above steps,
your cleaner may need servicing
(see“Service” section).
Lubrication
The motor is equipped with bearings
that contain sufficient lubrication for the
life of the motor. The addition of lubricant
could cause damage. Therefore, do not
add lubricant to motor bearings.
The agitator brush roll is equipped with
two ball bearings that should be lubri-
cated periodically by a Hoover Factory
Service Center or an Authorized Hoover
Warranty Service Dealer (Depot).
