SERVICE INFORMATION

To avoid unnecessary service calls, check the belt and brush
roll often. Replace the belt if it is stretched or cracked. Clean
the brush roll bristles when they are wrapped with thread and
hairs. Build-up could cause the brush to rotate unevenly.

The model number and serial number are indicated on the rating
label located underneath the power brush. Always refer to
these numbers when inquiring about service.

NOTE:

The motor is permanently lubricated and sealed. Do
not oil the motor at any time.
