The vacuum cleaner needs recurring service exactly like your car does. To keep the vacuum in fine working order, listed here are some ideas to help keep it out of the local repair shop.
Change the vacuum cleaner belt at least once a year. To check to see if you should get a new vacuum belt, leave the vacuum cleaner unplugged, and roll the roller brush briskly back and forth. If the belt is slipping, you'll be able to tell. That could be when you need to replace the belt.
Finding a rubber smell coming from your vacuum cleaner also is a dead giveaway that your belt is either slipping badly, or the roller brush is locked up with pet hair or other obstructions.
The paper filter bag (if your vacuum uses a bag) ought to never be more than two thirds full. Air flow will be restricted if the paper liner is too full up. This can cause your vacuum cleaner motor to heat up. Moreover, replace the paper filter bag if you notice an odor coming from the vacuum. Bacterias and microbes will breed inside the paper liner causing odors.
Regardless of whether your vacuum cleaner calls for a bag or requires a bagless HEPA filter, you ought to change the filters as soon as the surface of the filter is stopped up with dust. This would permit air to flow through the vacuum, cooling the motor.
Check to see if the brushes on your roller brush are still stiff and thick. If the brushes are dog-eared, they won't have the ability to separate the fibers of the carpet.
Entrust motor work to an approved warranty center or a local retailer. Attempting to mend the motor yourself can void warranties and cause other expenses when you take the box of parts to a retailer for customer service.
I would suggest taking your vacuum to an independent vacuum cleaner dealer for yearly inspections. More often than not this will be done either at no cost or for a nominal cost. After that you can choose whether to get the repair done or not.
