If you have any questions, please call 1-800-752-0183

1. Remove swivel assembly (Figure 13) from the top of

the cleaner by turning it 1/4-turn counterclockwise
and pulling straight up on  it.

2. Turn cleaner upside down. Remove 4 screws and

remove lower body assembly from shroud.

3 . Turn lower body assembly right side up. Unsnap the

2 clips on the oscillator chamber cap (Figure 14A); lift
it off.

4. Pull the long gear shaft straight up (Figure 14A) by

the blocks on the ends of the shaft. Hold the seals in
the oscillator and the blocks on the shaft. The cam
may interfere with the shaft mounting post; if so, turn
it slightly on the shaft until it clears the post. The shaft
assembly can now be disassembled (Figure 14B).

5. Slide the long gear shaft out of the oscillator (with

gears, complete); make sure that you don’t lose the
seals out of the oscillator which may fall out at this
point (Figure 14B).

5A. Oscillator seals are replaceable.

5B. Ratchet gear set and long shaft are replaceable as a

unit.

6. Remove the short gear shaft and gears (Figure 15); do

not lose the gears off of the shaft.

NOTE:

Put one finger under the gear nearest the end

of the cleaner and lift straight up to remove the short
gear shaft. Do not twist or bend the shaft.

7. With a small screwdriver (such as a jeweler’s screw-

driver), a pencil, or a pen point, depress and remove
the coil spring from the  movable brush mounting
post (Figure 16). Replace the brush and the spring if
necessary.

8. The metal ratchet tab slides out of its slot sideways;

replace it by removing the center brushes and sliding
in a new ratchet tab until it is flush with the edge of
plastic holder (Figures 17 and 18). Replace the center
brushes.

9. The brush ring pops out of the cleaner body for easy

replacement.

10. If you need to replace the bumper, turn the shroud

and bumber assembly upside down and remove the
two screws holding the bumper to the shroud.
