To check condition of brushes, discon- nect cleaner from electrical outlet. Move edge of a card across bottom plate while turning agitator. To maintain cleaning effectiveness, replace agitator if brushes do not touch card.

Your cleaner requires either a 13” or 15” agitator. When purchasing a new agita- tor, ask for one of the following:

13” - HOOVER part No. 48414110

15” - HOOVER part No. 48414115.

Lubrication

The motor is equipped with bearings that contain sufficient lubrication for the life of the motor. The addition of lubricant could cause damage. Therefore, do not add lubricant to motor bearings.

The agitator brush roll is equipped with two ball bearings that should be lubri- cated periodically by a Hoover Factory Service Center or an Authorized Hoover Warranty Service Dealer (Depot).

An internal thermal protector has been designed into your cleaner to protect it from overheating.

When the thermal protector activates, the cleaner will stop running. If this happens, proceed as follows:

1.Turn the cleaner OFF and discon- nect it from the electrical outlet.

2.Check secondary and final filters for dirt accumulation.

3.Refer to “Clearing blockages” section.
