When to replace brushes

1.The agitator brushes should be replaced when they are worn. Brushes should be checked by holding a card across the lower plate, (Fig. 5). If the bristles on the agitator assembly do not

touch the card you should replace all the brushes for best cleaning results.

Removal

NOTE: Use extreme care when prying or depressing these items with a screwdriver in order to help prevent personal injury or damage to the vacuum.

Be careful when working around the ends of the metal brush holder since sharp edges may be present.

1.Remove the lower plate as outlined in the LOWER PLATE REMOVAL/ INSTALLATION section.

2.Remove the agitator assembly as outlined in the AGITATOR ASSEMBLY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION section.

3.The agitator assembly may now be dissassembled and the brushes replaced.

4.Using a small screwdriver, carefully remove the E-clip from the agitator shaft,

(Fig. 6), DO NOT misplace. Remove the right end cap. Pull the agitator shaft out of the opposite end of the agitator.

5.Pull or pry out the agitator pulley and agitator holder, (Fig. 7).

6.The brushes can now be replaced, (Fig. 8). Each brush must be inserted so that the end with eleven (11) tufts is placed on the side of the brush holder closest to the belt pulley. Push each brush as shown in the illustration until it is free from the agitator body. Install the new brushes by reversing the procedure.
