If the brush roll on your PowerGlide/CleanView Lift-Off vacuum isn’t turning, follow these steps to fix the problem
- First, make sure the pod is properly seated on the machine
- Next, check if the brush roll switch is turned on. You will know when the switch lights up.
- The brush roll will only run if the machine is reclined. It will automatically turn off when the vacuum is in an upright position
- To recline, place your foot on the base of the vacuum then pull back and push down on the handle
- If these steps didn’t work, you’ll have to check the brush roll itself
- Be sure to turn off and unplug your vacuum before doing any maintenance
- To access the belt and brush roll you’ll need a Phillips head screwdriver
- Next, gently lay the vacuum on its back
- Now, unscrew the 8 screws to remove the bottom cover
- Pull the brush roll straight out and slide the belt off the motor gear
- Inspect the brush roll by placing it on its end and spinning. It should spin freely with one flick. If it doesn’t replace the brush roll
- Now inspect the belt, if it appears damaged it should be replaced
- Next, put the belt back on the brush roll
- Pinch the belt around the brush roll and hook it around the silver motor gear. Rotate brush roll into place, line up the end caps and push inward
- Re-attach the bottom cover and insert the 8 screws from earlier
That’s it, you’re ready to get back to cleaning with your Lift-Off vacuum
