1. When to replace the brushes.
The brushes should be replaced when they are worn. Brushes
should be checked by holding a card across the lower plate, see
illustration. If the bristles on the agitator DO NOT touch the
card, you SHOULD replace the brushes for best cleaning
results.
2. How to replace the brushes.
Remove the lower plate as outlined in the REMOVING/
INSTALLING THE LOWER PLATE section. After the tower plate
is removed, carefully lift up the agitator until it dears both sides
of the nozzle housing. While holding the agitator up, rermve the
belt and the end caps (rubber). Carefully remove the E-cIlp from
the agitator shaft using a small screwdriver and then remove №e
right end cap (metal). Pull the agitator shaft of the opposite end
of the agitator and pull or pry out the agitator pulley and agitator
holder. The brushes can now be replaced easily. Each brush
must be inserted so that the end with eleven (11) tufts Is placed
on the side of the agitator body closest to the belt pulley. Push
each brush as shown In the illustration until it is free from the
agitator body. Install the new bnjshes by reversing the proce­
dure. Reinstall the agitator holder, agitator pulley, making sure
they are completely and firmly inserted, the agitator shafl/end
cap (metal), and E-clip in the reverse order of removal. See the
exploded view below for the correct assembly of all parts.
NOTE: Take care not to bend the agitator shafl. DO NOT mis­
place the small E-cllp. Be careful when removing and rein­
stalling it on the agitator shaft end, as it can easily get away
from you.
3. To replace the agitator.
Place the.bett over the belt pulley on the agitator. NOTE: There
is a place for the belt to fit on one end of the agitator only. After
assembling the belt, place the agitator back into the nozzle
housing by aligning each end cap (rubber).
After completing the assembly, rotate the brush, turning it
by hand to assure that it rotates smoothly and the part is
assembled correctly.
Replace the lower plate as outlined in the REMOVING/INSTALLING THE LOWER PLATE section.
