I. Removing and Replacing the Direct Air Motor - Continued
I.
Step 9.
The direct air motor is located in the lower motor compartment (nearest the nozzle).
To remove the direct air motor place a hand on each side of motor and lift up and rotate the motor toward the dust
compartment.
I. Step 10.
Disconnect the white and black motor leads.
I. Step 11.
To install the motor:
1. Ensure the rubber seal is installed on the dust compartment.
2. Ensure the motor seal by the shaft is in good condition.
3. Place the black wire under the motor and connect it. Connect the white wire, (hold the black wire as you place the motor
into the motor compartment to keep from pinching the wire).
4. Place the motor into the motor compartment, (do not push all the way down) shaft side first then fan side, keeping the motor
level as it goes in.
5. Check the back of the vacuum to ensure the scroll housing is not catching on the rubber seal.
6. Rotate the motor as you push it down into the dust compartment. Once in place the metal motor support should rest in
between the bracket.
7. Raise up the shaft end of the motor, install the wire guide, and push the motor down into place.
Note the proper location of the two cables passing from the clean air motor compartment to the direct air motor
compartment. They should be stored in the channel of the rib wall before the motor cover is reinstalled. If not, the
rib wall could pinch and damage the cables. The cables may also prevent the motor cover from seating properly into
place. Make sure all gaskets are also seated properly.
