ROUTINE MAINTENANCE (continued)

Filter Screen

The filter screen is located directly above the dust cup and is easily removed by turning it counter-clockwise. It should be checked regularly to ensure an open airway. Reinsert the screen by turning it clockwise (FIG. 17).

Bottom Filter Maintenance

Check the bottom filter frequently. For optimum performance, replace bottom filter every 12 months.

Step 1: Remove the bottom filter cover by grasping the right edge and pivoting to the left (FIG. 18).

Step 2: Pull filter frame from unit by pulling on tab in center (FIG. 19).

Step 3: On some models, remove filter pad and shake to remove excess dust. If necessary this pad can be cleaned by vacuuming with another cleaner (FIG. 20).

Step 4: Replace filter into unit. Replace bottom filter cover by pivoting back onto cleaner from left to right.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord before periodic maintenance. Never operate the vacuum cleaner without the dust bag or filter assembly in place.

Brushroll

The brushroll turns as it sweeps and combs the carpet nap. Remove hair and threads from the brushroll 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 brushroll.

Brushroll Belt, Style U

The brushroll belt turns the brushroll 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.
