replace it by removing the center brushes and sliding in
a new ratchet tab until it is flush with the edge of plastic
holder (Figures 23 and 24). Replace the center brushes.
9. The brush ring pops out of the cleaner body for easy
replacement.

ABOUT ASSEMBLY
1. Put both white seals in the oscillator; hold them in
place.
2. Install the oscillator on the long gear shaft. Install the
ratchet gear on the shaft so that the teeth engage the
ratchet on the oscillator. Install the spring, ratchet
drum, pinion gear (large gear first), and cam (gear end
first) on the shaft (See Figure 25). Hold the gears on
the shaft while installing them, and compress the
clutch spring to allow assembly to slip into place
between the posts (See Figure 25).
3. Install the long gear shaft and end blocks in the
cleaning head with the large arm of the cam down
(see Figure 26).
4. Reinstall the short gear shaft, set screw, and two gears
(See Figure 27); the small pinion gears and the shaft set
screw go on the side toward the end of the cleaner –
away from the oscillator box. Make sure that the gears
engage the gears on the long gear shaft.
5. Install the oscillator chamber cap and clip it in place.
6. Install the rubber vacuum skirt on the cleaner with the
word ‘OUTSIDE’ showing. Start at the large pin on
the back of the cleaner head (See Figure 28) and work
around the cleaner. Make sure the skirt is flush against
the stop strips on the cleaner head (see Figure 29).
