How to replace Disconnect cleaner from electrical outlet. Remove bottom plate, belt and agitator following directions in "The belt" section beginning with Fig. 3-16. Discard old agitator. Continue following the directions in "The belt" section to reposition belt, new agitator and bottom plate. Move edge of a card across bottom plate while turning agitator. To maintain cleaning effectiveness, replace agitator if brushes do not touch card. 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. Thermal protector 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 disconnect it from the electrical outlet. 2. Check filters for dirt accumulation. 3. Refer to "Clearing blockages" section. 4. When cleaner is unplugged and the motor cools for 30 minutes, the thermal protector automatically resets and cleaning may continue. If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner may need servicing (see "Service" section). Continued 9
