7. Rotating Brushbar: Removal &
Replacement
The motor switches off automatically if the brushbar is blocked during
operation by vacuuming up foreign objects, or if strands of carpet are wrapped
around it.
IMPORTANT
: Switch off the vacuum cleaner and unplug it from the wall outlet
before servicing.
1. Lay the vacuum cleaner down on a flat surface and turn over to expose
the brushbar. Using a pair of scissors, cut through any threads or hairs
caught by the brushbar that have wrapped around the guides (Fig. 7/1).
Fig. 7/1
2. There is an automatic system which cuts off the power supply if the
brushbar gets clogged up. After cleaning the brushes, wait for 2 minutes
then plug the vacuum cleaner into the wall outlet and press the reset
button (Fig. 7/2) before pressing the power on/off switch.
