Remove the worn or broken belt from the motor drive
shaft.
Carefully remove any belt residue that may exist in the
belt area before replacing with a new belt.
Loop the new belt first over the motor drive shaft and
then over the agitator pulley.
Insert the right side of the brushbar in first by placing the
end cap down in the slot and then so the same with the
left side. Press firmly to make sure that each end is
completely inserted.
Check to make sure that the belt is centred on the
agitator pulley and that the brushbar turns.
Replace the vacuum head cover then reattach the
brushbar height adjuster knob. Secure parts by screwing
in one (1) screw underneath the small wheel flap and the
five (5) screws on the underside of the vacuum cleaner.
