Brush Roll Belt
The brush roll belt on the upright vacuum cleaner drives the
brush to agitate, sweep, and comb the carpet nap. The belt
should be checked regularly to be sure it is in good condi-
tion. Replace the belt if it is stretching, cracking, or slipping.
Cut away any hair or thread wound around the brush roll or
the belt pulley because the buildup could cause the belt to
rotate unevenly.
How To Replace A Worn Belt
CAUTION: Turn off the switch and unplug the
electrical cord before replacing belt.
Belt pulleys can become hot during
normal use. To prevent burns, avoid
touching the belt pulley when servicing
the drive belt.
IMPORTANT: Improper installation of the brush
roll or brush roll belt could cause
carpet or cleaner damage.

How To Change Furniture Guard
Four screws on the underside
of the base secure the furniture
guard. To gain access to the two
rear screws, you must remove
the four screws holding the
two axle clamps and remove
the rear wheel assembly. The
front two screws are exposed
by removing the soleplate and
brush roll. Remove the four
furniture guard screws, install
the new guard and tighten the
four screws. Reinstall the brush
roll, soleplate and rear wheel
assembly.
