To Adjust Or Replace Brush - Oreck XL 9000 Serie Guia Del Usuario

The Belt
The belt on your vacuum cleaner controls the speed of the revolving
brush and is very important for the effective operation of the cleaner. If
the belt becomes stretched or cut, it will cause the revolving brush to
stop completely or slow down. See instructions in the manual for
replacing belt.
An extra belt is stored in the baseplate of your cleaner. When
buying replacement belts, use ONLY ORECK genuine belts. Belts
other than Oreck belts will not operate the revolving brush correctly
and may create undue stress which will cause damage to the motor
and brush bearings. Using belts other than ORECK belts will void
the warranty. Lubrication
The vacuum cleaner motor bearings are factory lubricated and sealed.
Further lubrication is not required.
General Cleaner Care
At least once a month, check for and
remove excessive lint, string or hair from
revolving brush.
Wipe the outside of the cleaner with a
damp cloth. Also clean the connector
deflector assembly area, base of cleaner
and fan housing area. If there is dust in
the outer bag, vacuum it or shake it out.
A little preventative maintenance will keep
your cleaner looking new and will ensure
continued cleaning effectiveness.
CAUTION—Wood Floors, Soft (Vinyl, Asphalt Tile, etc.) Floor
Surfaces and Polished Floor Finishes
Use floor and floor finish manufacturer's recommended methods of
cleaning. The metal strip on the base of the cleaner could be damaged
if used on concrete or abrasive surfaces, and, therefore, cause damage
to wood floors, soft (vinyl, asphalt tile, etc.) floor surfaces and polished
floor finishes. The roller brush may also scuff very soft finishes.
Celoc ® Hypo-Allergenic Filter System
The Celoc SMMS outer bag of your vacuum cleaner is high filtration
medical material designed to filter the smallest of dust particles. It is
important the inside of the outer bag be cleaned. Vacuum the inside of
the outer bag or hand wash, turned inside out, with warm water, and air
dry. For best results, the Celoc SMMS outer bag should be replaced
once a year.
