WARNING:
Unplug Power Cord from electrical socket before servicing.
To determine if the brushroll is worn, place a firm object with a straight edge across the opening
in the base of the vacuum. If the brushroll bristles do not extend evenly beyond the baseplate and
touch the straight object then the brushroll should be adjusted.
Remove the baseplate by removing 5 Philips screws and then remove the belt and brushroll
from the Housing.
Note:
.
To adjust the brushroll, rotate the ends of each brushroll so that the ‘OLD’ setting is uppermost (19).
The ‘OLD’ setting is smooth and has no grooves along the edge. The ‘NEW’ setting has several
grooves along the edge (18) and on a new brushroll this should be facing uppermost.
Refit the belt.
Refit the baseplate.
If a previous adjustment has already been made and bristle height does not extend above the
baseplate, a new brush assembly should be ordered or a Service Kit (SERKIT35G).
