MAINTAINING FLOOR TOOLS

CHECKING the Rotating Floor Brush and Drive Belt
You should check your vacuum cleaner's rotating floor brush and drive belt regularly for
wear or damage. You should also clean strings, hair, and carpet fibers off the brush and
brush ends. These can wrap around the brush and hamper its ability to effectively clean
your carpet. Also remove any debris that has accumulated under the brush cover.
1. Unplug the vacuum from the electrical outlet.
2. Place the handle in low position and turn the vacuum
cleaner over so the bottom side is up.
3. Remove the six screws (at arrows, right) with a screwdriver.
4. Remove the brush cover from the floor brush.
5. Grasp the rotating floor brush at both ends and lift.
6. Clean string, hair and other debris off the rotating floor
brush, paying particular attention to brush ends.
7. Clean string, hair and other debris off the motor pulley and
drive belt areas.
8. Check the drive belt carefully for wear, cuts or stressed
areas.
9. Check the air passageway for obstructions. Remove
debris from this area.
The rotating floor brush could cause the fringe of a rug
to become tangled within the vacuum.
CAUTION
Use caution and turn off the floor brush when
vacuuming throw rugs with fringe.

REPLACING the Drive Belt

1. Make sure that the vacuum is unplugged.
2. With the rotating floor brush removed from the vacuum
cleaner, grasp the old drive belt and remove it from the
motor pulley. Discard the old drive belt.
3. Place the new drive belt over the motor pulley and stretch
the other end over the rotating floor brush in the space
between the bristles.
4. Place the ends of the rotating floor brush down into the
slots on the sides as shown.
5. Turn the rotating floor brush by hand several times in the
direction of the motor pulley. If properly installed, the drive
belt will center itself on the rotating brush crown.
6. Reposition the brush cover and screws. Tighten the screws securely.
