Wash the Soft roller floor tool brushbars, step by step guide

Step 1 - Removing Motorised floor tool from the wand

  • Disconnect the Motorised floor tool from the wand by pressing the release button.

 

Step 2 - Unlocking the brushbar end cap

NB: Beware of sharp objects when checking for blockages.

  • Turn the floor tool upside down so the underside of the floor tool is facing you.
    Use a coin to unlock the fastener marked with a padlock.

 

Step 3 - Removing the large brushbar

NB: This product has carbon fibre brushes. Take care if coming into contact with them,
as they may cause minor skin irritation. Wash your hands after handling the brushes.

  1. Rotate the end cap to the open position.
  2. Gently slide the large brushbar away from the cleaner head.
    Remove the end cap from the brushbar.

 

Step 4 - Removing the end cap

NB: Do not wash the end cap.

  • Remove the end cap from the large brushbar.

 

Step 5 - Removing the small brushbar

  • Lift out the small brushbar from the octagonal end and pull away from the
    floor tool.

 

Step 6 - Washing the brushbars

  • Hold the brushbars under running water and gently rub to remove any lint
    or dirt.

 

Step 7 - Drying the brushbars

  • Stand both brushbars upright. Ensure the large brushbar is stood upright as
    shown. Leave to dry completely for a minimum of 24 hours.

 

Step 8 - Refitting the small brushbar

NB: Before replacing, check that the brushbars are completely dry.

  • Refit the small brushbar before the large one. Insert the round end of the small
    brushbar into place. Push down the octagonal end until it clicks into place.

 

Step 9 - Refitting the end cap

  • Reattach the end cap to the brushbar.

 

Step 10 - Refitting the large brushbar

  1. Slide the large brushbar back onto the floor tool, around the motor.
    The end cap should be in the open position as shown.
  2. Once in place, rotate the end cap back into the closed position.

 

Step 11 - Locking the brushbar end cap

  • Close the fastener by turning a quarter turn clockwise. Ensure that the fastener is
    fully turned and the base plate and the brushbar is secure.
  • Re-fit the Motorised floor tool and test the machine.
