Brush Roll Belt
The brush roll belt on the upright vacuum cleaner drives the brush to agitate, sweep,
and comb the carpet nap. The belt should be checked regularly to be sure it is in good
condition. Replace the belt if it is stretching, cracking, or slipping. Cut away any hair or
thread wound around the brush roll or the belt pulley because the buildup could cause
the belt to rotate unevenly.
How to Replace A Worn Belt

Belt pulleys can become hot during normal use. To prevent burns, avoid
touching the belt pulley when servicing the drive belt.
