  7. Secure Cover: Replace the brush compartment cover and secure it with the latches or screws.
  8. Test: Turn on your vacuum cleaner to ensure the new brush rotates freely and operates correctly.

3. Operating the Brush

The main roller brush operates as an integral part of your vacuum cleaner's cleaning system. Once installed, it will rotate during cleaning cycles to agitate dirt and debris from surfaces, directing them into the vacuum's suction path. No specific user operation is required for the brush itself beyond its proper installation and maintenance.

4. Maintenance

Regular maintenance of the main roller brush is crucial for optimal cleaning performance and extending the lifespan of your vacuum cleaner. The brush is designed with a detachable head for easy cleaning.

  1. Frequency: Inspect the brush weekly, or more frequently if you have pets or long-haired occupants.
  2. Removal: Follow steps 1-3 from the "Installation Instructions" to remove the brush.
  3. Cleaning:
    • Carefully remove any tangled hair, strings, or debris wrapped around the brush bristles and the main brush bearings. Scissors or a brush cleaning tool (often included with vacuum cleaners) can be helpful.
    • Wipe down the brush and its end caps with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not submerge the brush in water.
  4. Reinstallation: Reinstall the cleaned brush by following steps 5-6 from the "Installation Instructions."

    • Check the brush bearings for damage or excessive wear.
    • Ensure the brush is properly seated in its compartment.
  • Brush Not Rotating:
    • Verify that the vacuum cleaner is powered on and operating.
    • Check for severe tangles or obstructions preventing rotation.
