CLEANING THE MOTORIZED BRUSH AND BLOCKAGES
The brush roll may accumulate debris such as strings, hair and fibers. This type of debris
can wrap around the brush and diminish its ability to clean effectively.
To Remove Brush Roll For Manual Cleaning:
1. Ensure the vacuum is OFF.
2. Turn unit over to
access the brush roll.
3. Unlock the
brush roll tab
with flat head
screwdriver
or similar tool
as illustrated.
4. Lift the brush roll out of the housing.
Clean off debris and anything wrapped
around the brush. You can use a pair of
scissors to remove threads etc.
5. Place the brush roll into the housing by
aligning the end to the brush drive first,
then inserting the other end correctly into
place. When installed correctly, the brush
roll should spin freely.
6. Lock the brush in
place by closing the
tab as illustrated.

1. To clean out the
hose, press the
hose release tabs,
as illustrated, and
pull the motorized
brush powerhead
away from the main
vacuum body.

debris or blockage from
the inside of the hose.
