Maintenance and Care

 Replacing the power nozzle belt

•  To replace the power nozzle belt, you 

must first remove the brushroll (see 
“Removing the brushroll”). Locate and 
discard broken belt.

•  To install a new belt, locate the power 

nozzle motor pulley and loop the belt 
around it (see diagram). 

•  Place the other end of the belt around 

the brushroll making sure the belt 
is seated in the “belt groove” of the 
brushroll (see diagram). 

•  Insert the brushroll back into the 

brushroll tray and place the belt guard 
back into position. 

•  Place the metal bottom plate back on 

to the unit (insert the front end of the 
bottom plate first). Reinsert the two 
bottom plate screws and secure.

Replacing the bulb

•  Turn the power nozzle over and remove 

the bottom plate by first unscrewing the 
two bottom plate screws located by the 
rear wheels. Locate and remove the two 
top cover screws (see diagram). 

•  Turn the power nozzle back over, push 

the power nozzle neck flat, and remove 
the top cover (see diagram). Simply pull 
the bulb out (no twisting) and insert a 
factory authorized bulb. 

•  Place the top cover back on the unit, 

turn the machine over and reinsert the 
two top cover screws. Reinstall the 
bottom plate.
