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 (7) 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 missing,
replace brush.
5.
Slide belt over brush onto the belt track.
Slide belt over the motor pulley. To reinstall
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 (7)
screws.

the motorized powerhead section.
