the condition of the belt should be checked
regularly. If the belt is stretched, cracked or if
excessive slipping is occurring, replace the belt.
• Unplug the vacuum cleaner from the electrical

plate (See "Removing and Reinstalling the
Bottom Plate") (Fig. 1).

the agitator into the housing first, then press the
other end of the agitator into the housing.
• Rotate the agitator, making sure that the belt is
not twisted.
