Brush Roll
The brush roll turns as it sweeps and combs the carpet nap.
Remove hair and threads from the brush roll so it continues
brushing the carpet. To maintain the most efficient cleaning,
the bristles must touch the carpet. To test the bristle length,
hold a ruler against the underneath side of the cleaner. If
the bristles no longer touch the ruler, replace the brush roll.
Brush Roll Belt, Style U
The brush roll belt turns the brush roll to agitate, sweep,
and comb the carpet nap. Check the belt regularly to be
sure it is in good condition. Replace the belt if it stretches,
cracks or loses tension. Cut away any hair or threads wound
around the brush roll or the belt pulley because the buildup
could cause the belt to rotate unevenly.
How To Replace Brush Roll Belt
NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the
electrical cord before replacing belt. Belt
pulleys can become hot during normal use.
To prevent injury, avoid touching the motor
shaft when changing the belt.
