These bearings contain sufficient lubrication for the life of the motor. The addi-
tion of lubricant could cause damage.
Therefore, do not add lubricant to either
motor bearing.
The agitator is equipped with two ball bearings that should be lubricated peri-
odically, This should be done by the Hoover Factory Branch Service Center, or
the Authorized Hoover Warranty Service Dealer, as listed on the white insert,
