Brush Roll
The rotating brush roll sweeps and combs the carpet nap. Keep the brush roll free from
hair and threads so it will continue brushing. When the bristles of the brush roll no longer
touch a straight edge held across the bottom plate, the brush roll is ineffective because
the bristles no longer touch the carpet nap. Install new brush strips on the chromed steel
brush roll (refer to instructions).
