Periodic Maintenance

CAUTION: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical
cord before periodic maintenance. Never
operate the vacuum cleaner without the
dustbag or filter assembly in place.
Brushroll
The brushroll turns as it sweeps and combs the carpet pile.
Remove hair and threads from the brushroll so it continues
brushing the carpet. To maintain the most efficient cleaning,
the bristles must touch the carpet.
Brushroll Belt (Ref: ZE090)
The brushroll belt turns the brushroll to agitate, sweep, and comb the
carpet pile. 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 brushroll or the belt pulley
because the buildup could cause the belt to rotate unevenly.
WARNING: Care should be taken when vacuuming rugs
to ensure that edges and fringes do not snap
the drive belt and stop the rotation of the
brushroll.
