PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

Brush Roll

The brush roll turns as it sweeps and combs the carpet nap.
Remove hair and threads from the brush roll so it continues
brushing the carpet. To maintain the most efficient cleaning,
the bristles must touch the carpet. To test the bristle length,
hold a ruler against the underneath side of the cleaner. If
the bristles no longer touch the ruler, replace the brush roll.
Brush Roll Belt, Style U
The brush roll belt turns the brush roll to agitate, sweep, and
comb the carpet nap. Check the belt regularly to be sure it is
in good condition. Replace the belt if it stretches, cracks or
loses tension. Cut away any hair or threads wound around
the brush roll or the belt pulley because the buildup could
cause the belt to rotate unevenly.
How To Replace Brush Roll Belt
NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord
before replacing belt. Belt pulleys can become
hot during normal use. To prevent injury, avoid
touching the motor shaft when changing the belt.
