The brush and drive belt should both regularly be checked for
wear or damage. You should also keep the brush and brush ends
free of string, hair, and carpet fibers as these can become
entangled in the brush and reduce its cleaning effectiveness.
NOTE: The brush can most often be cleaned
without removal from the vacuum. If there is an
excessive amount of hair and debris, however, it
is best to remove the brush.
Unplug the vacuum. Tip unit over, face down, on a flat surface.
Remove all 3 screws from the bottom of the Powerfoot.
Grip both the top cover and base while turning unit back
over. Lift off top cover.
Check Belt. If it is broken or damaged, Rotating Brush
needs to be removed before replacing a new belt.
To remove the Rotating Brush, pull the right side of the
Rotating Brush toward the front of the Powerfoot as you
lift slowly.
Clean off brush roll as necessary.
Place existing or new Belt over Rotating Brush Pulley and
the Motor Shaft. Insert the End Cap Pin on the left of the
Rotating Brush into the slot on the Powerfoot and slide the
End Cap Pin on the right end of the Rotating Brush in to
the slot in the Powerfoot and lower until it clicks into place.
Make sure the Furniture Protection Guard is still intact.
Align the 3 tabs on the top cover with the 3 slots in the
Powerfoot. Press into place, making sure the Furniture
Protection Guard is on the outside.
Turn vacuum cleaner back face down.
Replace the 3 screws.
Note: It may be easier to begin with the center screw.
