Introduction
The brush bar on the vacuum can wear with use. If your brush is scratching your floor, or not cleaning as well as it used to, then you may want to replace your brush bar.
Ce dont vous avez besoin
-
-
-
Turn down the squared tabs on the brushbar so that they face outward.
-
Use a screwdriver to pry the belt up from the brushbar.
-
While holding the belt, pull the brushbar to the left and remove it from the vacuum.
Some models don't have the clutch mechanism, but are driven directly from the motor (and the belt cover which is shown as the clutch cover is now part of the soleplate); in that case, it may be simpler to just remove the belt from the motor spindle.
If you've had the vacuum cleaner more than 2 or 3 years, consider changing the belt at the same time, they are not expensive

RE-insert brush bar? You mean insert new brush bar? (Not reinsert the old one like in the picture because after all this is instructions for replacing the brush bar right?) Aakkk!
At the bottom it says "to reassemble follow these instructions backwards"...something like that.
Excuse me I have to scream now.
Thanks, I got you and I know what you meant. Thanks for taking the time to help others.
Easy-peasy! My DC 14 Animal is 15 years old. This is its first set of new brushes. My carpet looks new! The install took only five minutes, including looking for a beefy screwdriver. The instructions were easy to follow, just required one to read ALL the material. Thanks every so.
Literally takes two minutes.!! The hardest part was holding the belt clear enough to slide the new brushbar into place. I replaced the soleplate at the same time.
Thanks for your brilliant simple instructions!! Made my life so much easier :-)
The Dyson DC 14 is a piece of CRAP! It is very poorly designed. I would never buy another one.
These instructions suck. First they assume familiarity with the inner workings of the device. Second there are insufficient visual identification of parts and devices. I've busted a knuckle attempting these “simple" instructions.
Good machine. Crap instructions.
How long should the bristles on the bar be? Mine are currently at 1/4 inch or a little more. Is that too worn down or do you think it’s ok?
Mikemo69, may I have your vacuum?
I will kill this %#*@ thing!! I just want to put the brush bar back !!
WOW! What a difference a CLEAN brush bar makes when sweeping! Needed an extra hand when pulling on belt to release and reinstall brush bar, but otherwise went smoothly! Thanks for the step-by-step pics!
