MOTOR FAN REPLACEMENT
Removal
1. Mark the position of the fan case's location on the motor with a pencil, or score it with a sharp object before disassembly. This will aid you in reassembling the fan case, (Fig. 21).
Tap Down on the
3 Crimped Areas
2. The fan case has three (3) crimped sections on it to hold the case onto the motor. These will have to be straightened by using a pair of needle nose pliers and by tapping out on the crimp area with a flat blade screwdriver. Be sure and straighten all three (3) crimped areas,
(Fig. 21). Remove the fan case from the motor unit.
3. Tools required to remove the fan from the shaft will be a 1/8 - inch Allen wrench, a 1/2 -inch offset box wrench, torque wrench, and a hammer.
NOTE: Be careful when handling the sheet metal parts as there could be sharp edges. Do not scratch or bend the motor shaft. Scratches will cause belt breakage during operation.
Mark Case
As Shown
4. Place the 1/2 - inch box wrench over the 1/2 -inch hex nut that holds the fan onto the motor shaft, (Fig. 22). While holding the wrench on the nut, place the 1/8 -inch Allen wrench into the end of the motor shaft and loosen the nut while holding the Allen wrench still. The nut will have to be turned clockwise as it is a left-hand thread. After removing the nut, remove the fan,
(Fig. 22). There is a spacer left on the motor that is not required to be removed. If spacer is removed, reassemble per exploded view, (Fig. 22).
Washer
* Some models will have this washer and spacer.

2. Install the flat washer with the burr side of the washer facing away from the fan, (Fig. 23). Screw the nut onto the motor shaft, turning it counterclockwise, left-hand threads, and torque to 20-30-inch pounds. Be sure to hold the motor shaft by placing the 1/8-inch allen wrench into the motor shaft end while torquing the nut, (Fig. 22).
3. Align your marks on the fan case as you put the fan case back on and tap around the case uniformly. Tap the three (3) crimped areas over and then use a flat blade screwdriver to recrimp them.
4. See (Fig. 24) for reassembly specifications.

POWER CORD/ON-OFF SWITCH REPLACEMENT (Cont.)
Installation
1. Insert the new power cord (power cord replacement only) into the dust compartment as far as necessary in order to place a new cord retainer in proper location on power cord. The proper location is approximately one and one eighth inches/thirty millimeters (1 1/8”/30 mm) of new power cord yellow outer jacket extending past the cord retainer and washer. The washer goes between the cord retainer and the dust compartment. Attach wires with wire connectors according to the wiring diagram in the front of this manual. ONLY USE A NEW
CORD RETAINER, DO NOT REUSE A CORD RETAINER.
2. For switch replacement only, insert the new ON/OFF switch with the numbers 1,2,3, facing toward you, into the dust compartment until secured by the retaining tabs. Use a wire tie with the part number listed in the C Block parts list and place it in the location shown in
(Fig. 15) taking care not to overtighten it. Tuck the wire connectors back into the dust compartment as shown in the close-up view in (Fig. 15).
3. Ensure that the Insulator Packing is installed correctly, (see Fig. 16).
4. Replace the switch cover, the two (2) switch cover screws, and the dust cover. Care should be taken not to pinch wires and make sure that the switch cover goes on easily and stays flat. If there is resistance to the switch cover lying flat and in place, stop, remove the cover and make sure that no wires are being pinched. DO NOT USE A POWER SCREWDRIVER TO SECURE THE COVER.
NOTE: Any service involving the handle or switch cover area should be followed up with a dielectric or current leakage check of the unit. If you do not have the equipment or are not familiar with the test procedures, take the unit to an authorized servicer.
HOSE REPLACEMENT
Removal
1. Remove the dust cover and dust bag.
2. Remove the end of the hose from the wand. Remove the hose by removing the two screws which secure it to the dust container.
Replacement
1. Install the new hose by replacing the two screws which secure it to the dust container.
2. Replace the hose onto the wand.

BRUSH REPLACEMENT
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.

AGITATOR ASSEMBLY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
Removal
The brushes are replaceable separately. When the brushes need replacing, the agitator assembly will have to be removed.
1. Remove the lower plate as outlined in the LOWER PLATE REMOVAL/
INSTALLATION section.
2. Carefully lift up on the agitator assembly until it clears both sides of the nozzle housing,
(Fig. 2).
3. Remove the belt from the motor shaft by sliding it off between the end of the shaft and the nozzle housing.
Installation
1. Place the belt around the motor shaft, (Fig. 3).
2. Start the agitator assembly back into the nozzle housing by placing the side opposite the belt partially into the slot. This will hold the agitator in place and leave both hands free to place enough tension on the belt to allow that side of the agitator to return to the nozzle housing slot.
3. Place the belt around the agitator pulley on the agitator assembly.
NOTE: There is a place for the belt to fit on one end of the agitator assembly only. This is the agitator pulley.
4. Use both hands to pull the belt tight, (Fig. 4), and slide the agitator assembly firmly into the slots on each end of the nozzle housing.
5 Rotate the agitator assembly by hand to insure nothing rubs and to check for correct assembly.
6. Replace the lower plate as outlined in the LOWER PLATE
REMOVAL/INSTALLATION section.
