Changing the rubber drive belt and brush roller
• The motor drives the brush roller by means of a rubber belt. To prevent damage to the
belt, the motor should be switched off immediately if the roller becomes jammed by
picking up large solid objects, carpet fringes or the like.
• This is usually obvious from the change in the sound of the motor or the smell of burning
rubber. Should the belt fail and the brush roller cease to rotate then replacement is very
simple as shown below.
• After some time, depending on the nature of the surfaces that are cleaned, the bristles
of the rotating brush will become worn. To maintain efficiency, once the bristles
become worn, the brush roller assembly should be replaced, as shown below.
IMPORTANT: Switch the cleaner off and remove plug from electrical outlet before
repairing or servicing your cleaner.
