Questions and answers
I can’t get the bottom off to change the belt. All screws are out
To remove the bottom of a Kenmore FeatherLite DU1096 to change the belt, follow these steps:
1. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the six screws from the belt cover and the lower plate.
2. Remove the belt cover from the floor nozzle.
3. Lift the lower plate combined with the brushroll. Be cautious, as there are sharp edges inside to prevent hair entanglement, and avoid putting any part of your body into the floor brush during maintenance.
Proceed with changing the belt as described in the manual.
