Rug and floor nozzle

To maintain the cleaning effectiveness of your deluxe nozzle or deluxe
wheeled nozzle, the brushes may need to be replaced occasionally.
See your nearest Hoover Factory Service Center or Authorized Warranty
Dealer (Depot) for new brushes.

Lubrication

The motor is equipped with two sleeve bearings. These bearings contain
sufficient lubrication for the life of the motor. Therefore, do not add
lubricant to either motor bearing.

Secondary filter

How to clean

Disconnect cleaner from
electrical outlet.
The secondary filter protects the
motor from dirt particles and does
not need to be removed for cleaning.
The filter is located on the inside top
of the cleaner body and can be seen
when the dirt cup and filter are
removed. When the filter becomes
dirty, it can be cleaned by wiping it
off with a damp cloth.
