To Adjust or Replace Brush
To determine if the brush is
worn, place a firm straight
edge across the nozzle
opening. If brush bristles
do not extend beyond
base plate, brush should
be adjusted.
Remove the base plate by
removing 5 screws. Then,
remove the belt and brush
roll from the housing.
Rotate both bearing assem-
blies at ends of brush roll
to show “old” and replace
in the holding channels in
the housing.
NOTE: The bearing
assembly setting marked
“OLD” has two bars (
l l )
on the top of the assembly.
The one marked “NEW”
has one bar ( l ). When
rotating bearings, make
sure both bearing
assembly settings are the
same and face up when
replacing the brush roll.
Reassemble the belt and
the base plate and check
bristle height above base
plate at each end of
brush.
If a pr
evious adjustment
has alr
eady been made
and bristle height does not
extend above base plate,
a new br
ush assembly
should be ordered.
IMPOR
T
ANT
: Unless
the brush is worn as
indicated above,
both bearings must
be in the new
position. When
rotating, both
bearings must be in
the old position.
Unmatched settings
will cause damage
to your machine.
Rotate and match
