Check the Drive Belt and Rotating Floor Brush regularly for
wear or damage. You should also remove string, hair, and
carpet fibers from the brush and brush ends. These can wrap
around the brush and hamper its ability to effectively clean
your carpet.
1. Press Handle Release Pedal to position cleaner in full
recline position.
2. Turn entire cleaner over to expose bottom of Powerfoot.
3. Using a flat blade screwdriver, depress the two tabs
that secure the brush cover.
4. Remove the brush cover and check the belt for damage or
wear, and the brush for debris.
5. Check belt carefully for wear, cuts or stressed areas. Inspect
entire belt by rolling floor brush with the palm of your hand
several times in the direction of the motor pulley.
6. Check Air Passageway for obstructions. Remove debris from
this area.
Replace Drive Belt
1. Grasp the brush at both ends and lift up.
2. Stretch old belt to clear motor pulley, remove belt,
and discard.
3. Place new belt over pulley and stretch other end over the
crown of the floor brush.
4. Place belt end of brush into its slot and hold it in place with
your left hand, while slowly pulling opposite end of brush
down into its slot with your right hand.
5. Turn brush by hand several times in direction of pulley. If
