Cleaning the motorized powerhead
the brush can usually be cleaned without
removal from the vacuum. If there is an
excessive amount of hair and debris, however, it
is best to remove the brush.
1. Unplug the vacuum.
2. Lay the motorized powerhead forward on the
floor.
3. Locate the locking screws (2) on the
bottom of the powerfoot. Using a Phillips
head screwdriver, remove the screws. Lift off
the brush cover. Grasp the brush firmly, and
pull it out.
4. Clean debris from brush. Lint, carpet pile,
and hair can be removed with a pair of
scissors. If brush bristles are worn or miss-
ing, replace brush.
5. Slide belt over brush onto the belt track.
Slide belt over the motor pulley. To rein-
stall brush, slide square ends of brush into
grooves, beginning with the belt side. The
drive belt should have room to rotate within
the belt channel. Make sure drive belt is
looped over roller and not twisted. Inspect
belt action by rolling the brush with the palm
of your hand.
6. Reattach brush cover to powerhead with (2)
screws.
