POWER CORD/ON-OFF SWITCH REPLACEMENT (Cont.)
Installation
1. Insert the new power cord (power cord replacement only) into the dust compartment as far as necessary in order to place
a new cord retainer in proper location on power cord. The proper location is approximately one and one eighth inches/thirty
millimeters (1 1/8"/30 mm) of new power cord outer jacket extending past the cord retainer and washer. The washer goes
between the cord retainer and the dust compartment. Attach wires with wire connectors according to the wiring diagram in
the front of this manual. ONLY USE A NEW CORD RETAINER, DO NOT REUSE A CORD RETAINER.
2. For switch replacement only, insert the new ON/OFF switch with the numbers 1,2,3, facing toward you, into the dust
compartment until secured by the retaining tabs. Use a wire tie with the part number listed in the C Block parts list and
place it in the location shown in Fig. 10 taking care not to overtighten it. Tuck the wire connectors back into the dust
compartment as shown in the close-up view in Fig. 10.
3. Ensure that the Insulator Packing is installed correctly, (see Fig. 11).
4. Replace the switch cover, the two (2) switch cover screws, and the dust cover. Care should be taken not to pinch wires
and make sure that the switch cover goes on easily and stays flat. If there is resistance to the switch cover lying flat and in
place, stop, remove the cover and make sure that no wires are being pinched. DO NOT USE A POWER SCREWDRIVER
TO SECURE THE COVER.
NOTE: Any service involving the handle or switch cover area should be followed up with a dielectric or current
leakage check of the unit. If you do not have the equipment or are not familiar with the test procedures, take the
unit to an authorized servicer.

MOTOR PROTECTOR REPLACEMENT

Removal
1. Remove the dust cover and dust bag.
2. Remove the motor protector (shown in the C Block) by pushing in, one at a time,
on the tabs that secure it to the dust compartment. Push the motor protector out
the back of the dust compartment.
Disassembly
1. Holding a pair of needle nose pliers at an angle and in a position where one side
of the pliers is against the locking tab, exert enough pressure on the tab to release
it, (see Fig. 12). NOTE: There are two locking tabs present, but only one
needs to be released. For reassembly look at the exploded view in the C
Block.
Installation
1. Reinstall the motor protector into the dust compartment by aligning the two tabs under the top flange with the slots in
the dust compartment and applying pressure until it snaps into place.
