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.
Brush Roll
The rotating brush roll sweeps and combs the carpet nap.
Keep the brush roll free from hair and threads so it will continue
brushing the carpet nap. Replace worn brush strips when the
bristles no longer touch a straight edge held across the bottom
plate. There are two types of brush rolls, the chromed steel tubular
brush roll or the anodized aluminum spiral brush roll. Follow the
instructions for the type of brush roll featured on the cleaner.
CAUTION: Turn off the switch and unplug the
electrical cord before replacing brush
strips.
How To Change Furniture Guard
Four screws on the underside of the base secure the furniture
guard. To gain access to the two rear screws, you must remove
the four screws holding the two axle clamps and remove
the rear wheel assembly. The front two screws are exposed
by removing the soleplate and brush roll. Remove the four
furniture guard screws, install the new guard and tighten the
four screws. Reinstall the brush roll, soleplate and rear wheel
assembly.
