ADJUSTING THE BRUSH ROLL HEIGHT (cont)

Place the brush back into the nozzle making sure both plastic

Brush Roll ends are set to the same number of notches (1, 2, or 3).

Replace the Rug Plate by placing it on the front of the bumper first and

then pulling it over the bumper on rear of Power Nozzle

25

. Secure the

Rug Plate using the two latches that hold it in place.
Using the handle, hook the belt onto the Belt Lifter

20

and turn the

Belt Lifter to the left (counter-clockwise) until the red arrows line up.

This will stretch the belt in preparation for returning the nozzle to the

Sentria® system. ❏

WHEEL WEAR/ REPLACEMENT

Kirby®wheels are made with a pliable tread that is designed to prevent

carpet wear and prevent damage to non-carpeted floors. After extended

periods of use, the tread on the wheels will wear out and the wheels will

need to be replaced.
Check wheel tread occasionally to determine if the wheels need to be

replaced. The tread material is lighter in color than the plastic wheel

itself. If any of the darker plastic wheel is showing through the tread,

the wheels need to be replaced. The wheels are not user-replaceable.

Contact your nearest authorized Kirby® Service Center for prompt,

courteous wheel replacement. ❏

CORD REPLACEMENT

If the electrical cord connecting the Sentria® system to the outlet

becomes cut or frayed over time, DO NOT USE THE UNIT. Contact

your authorized Kirby® Service Center immediately for replacement.
Avoid damage to your cord by being careful not to run over it with your

Sentria system. Also, unplug your unit by grasping the plug at the end

of the cord rather than pulling on the cord itself. ❏

HEADLIGHT REPLACEMENT

If one or more of the three LED lights in your Headlight Assembly

burn out, please contact your authorized Kirby® Distributor for

replacement. ❏

SERVICE TIP

Keep the entire Brush Roll and belt track clear of lint, string, hair and other

debris build-up. This will allow the Brush Roll to perform at its fullest

potential. ➤

Keep motor shaft free from lint, hair, and debris build-up.
