Maintenance and care
 
You should check your vacuum cleaner’s 
rotating floor brush and drive belt regu-
larly for wear or damage. You should 
also clean the brush and brush ends of 
string, hair and carpet fibers. These can 
wrap around the brush and hamper its 
ability to effectively clean your carpet.
 Also remove any debris that has accu-
mulated under the brush cover.
1. Unplug cleaner from electrical outlet.
2.  Place handle in low position and turn 
vacuum cleaner over so bottom side is up.
3.  Remove the two screws from the brush 
cover (as shown) with a Phillips head  
screwdriver. Lift the brush cover off.
4.  Grasp rotating floor brush at both ends 
and lift.
5.  Clean strings, hair and other debris 
from rotating floor brush, paying par -
ticular attention to brush ends.
6.  Clean strings, hair and other debris from 
motor pulley and drive belt areas.
7.  Check drive belt carefully for wear, cuts 
or stressed areas. Replace if worn or 
damaged.

1. Unplug cleaner from electrical outlet.

uum cleaner (Steps 1-4 of "Check rotating

and stretch other end over rotating floor 
brush in the space between the bristles.

Clearing clog
Low suction, poor pickup or no suction 
may be due to a clog in the vacuum 
cleaner. If you notice a change in 
the sound of the vacuum motor or a 
reduction in the spinning action in the 
dirt container, check for clogs.
1. Unplug cleaner from electrical outlet.
2.  Empty dirt container.
3.  Check upper tank and primary separa-
tor for build up or clogs. Check to make 
sure primary separator is installed cor -
rectly. To unlock the primary separator, 
grasp the rim and turn toward the left. 
Pull straight down to remove. If the pri-
mary separator is missing or not locked 
into place, check and clear the tube in 
the center of the dirt container and prop-
erly install primary separator.
4.  Remove the Twist ‘n Snap hose from the 
vacuum by turning to the left. Check the 
suction inlet, hose and hose wand for 
clogs. Remove any clogs from the hose 
using a long, narrow object such as a 
broomstick.
5.  Check the foot hose for clogs. If need-
ed, remove the screw attaching the hose 
wand base to the vacuum. Straighten 
the foot hose and unclog with a long, 
narrow object such as a broomstick.
6.  If the clog persists, follow the instructions 
for checking the rotating floor brush on 
page 11 and inspect the air passageway 
for obstructions.
