Storing the Power Cord

NOTE: If the filter is still excessively dirty, damaged, or torn, it will need to be replaced.

Cleaning the Brush Roll

WARNING

5. When finished cleaning, align the brush roll with the belt, turning by hand several times in the direction of the motor to align the belt on the floor brush.
6. Replace the brush cover and 5 screws.

NOTE: If an object becomes lodged in the foot and the brush shuts off, turn the vacuum OFF and unplug from the electrical outlet.

Replacing the Drive Belt

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electric shock, turn the power switch OFF and disconnect the plug from the electrical outlet before performing maintenance or troubleshooting checks.

2. Lift off the brush cover and grasp the floor brush at both ends to lift out. Check the drive belt carefully for wear, cuts, and stressed areas. If the drive belt appears worn, replace it as needed.
3. Test the brush by holding it on end and spinning. It should spin several revolutions freely from one flick. If not, the brush will need to be replaced.
4. Grasp the old drive belt and remove it from the motor shaft to discard it. Loop the new drive belt over the motor shaft and stretch the other end over the floor brush in the space provided between the bristles.
5. When finished, align the brush roll with the belt, turning by hand several times in the direction of the motor to align the belt on the floor brush.
6. Replace the brush cover and 5 screws.

Cleaning the Hose and Foot

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electric shock, turn the power switch OFF and disconnect the plug from the electrical outlet before performing maintenance or troubleshooting checks.

1. Locate the stretch hose where it connects to the hose elbow on the back of the vacuum. Look to see if there is any debris in the hose and the hose elbow. Clean as necessary.

Replace two screws and reattach the stretch hose by sliding over the inlet and rotating upwards towards the lock position.
