There is no release, the part is a plastic handle release lever, you can find those at www.hesco.com, the cost is approximately 2.29 each, I have replaced more than 20 of these on the commercial vacuums for my cleaning crew, the part is easily broken and easily replaced. I always have 6 or more on hand.
Turn the vacuum over, remove the bottom plate, with a flat head screw driver punch out the old part. turn the vacuum upright again after the broken part is removed. With the body laying back on a hard surface, carefully push in the new part. Unfortunately, these are plastic, too bad they cannot design a more sturdy part for this.

Hello, pcmc

I was trying to help you out here. Maybe this will help some? I was going back to some customers that asked questions in the recent past and even farther back. It appeared that no one answered some of them, So, I thought I would take some of my own personal time to see if I can help. Even though this a Informational site may not have your exact model or brand, But this site will help you a lot. Here is the site link about everything you want to know about vacuum cleaners and possibly yours, from repair to trouble shooting it.

http://home.howstuffworks.com/vacuum-cleaner.htm

Please if this helped you at all, if you can find the time and in your heart to rate my help and some kind words written would be appreciated for my free help, I would appreciate it. Like I said I just tried to help, If anything this is good information for future problems. If you felt that my free help was a waist of time for you, I'm sorry.I do not get paid to help people on the site, I do it cause I like to help.

Here is also my direct link to my own pages of other areas of my expertise for other problems you might have in Automotive, Appliance, and Electronics. Drop In anytime for my help.

How do I replace the upright locking foot pedal on my Bissell 3760-4
Replacing the upright locking foot pedal on a Bissell 3760-4 is a fairly straightforward process. Here are the steps you can follow:
  1. Turn off and unplug the vacuum cleaner.
  2. Lay the vacuum cleaner on its side so that you can access the bottom of the machine.
  3. Locate the locking foot pedal and use a screwdriver to remove the screws that hold it in place.
  4. Once the screws are removed, gently pull the old locking foot pedal away from the vacuum cleaner.
  5. Take the replacement locking foot pedal and position it in the same spot where the old one was removed.
  6. Use the screwdriver to attach the replacement locking foot pedal with the screws you removed earlier.
  7. Test the new locking foot pedal to make sure it works properly and holds the vacuum cleaner in the upright position.
  8. Once you are satisfied with the new locking foot pedal, flip the vacuum cleaner back over to its normal upright position.
  9. Plug in the vacuum cleaner and turn it on to make sure everything is functioning properly.
With these steps, you should be able to successfully replace the upright locking foot pedal on your Bissell 3760-4.

Model 8975-C - broken foot lever
I'm fairly upset with Bissell over this issue and considering switching to a better brand after constantly having to replace this item on every vacuum of theirs I've had. It is shocking that they would have a part that gets stomped by your foot and jerked with the entire weight of the vacuum made out of cheap plastic. The curved piece acts like a spring to hold the vacuum upright. Can you imagine a curved leaf spring made out of plastic?? In any case, they call this an "internal part" and therefore not user serviceable. You have to call their 800 number to get a dealer local to you, usually a sewing and vacuum place, and then get them to sell you the part. Otherwise, you are going to have to take the vacuum to them and have the dealer replace it.

Foot operated release "spring" is broken. Replaceable?
Remove the pieces of the old spring and take it to any OSH store, they have an assortment that will likely have one that will work.

Bissell 3595 handle release pedal spring(?) missing
I just fixed this on my Bissell PowerForce model #6594 vacuum myself. Woo Hoo for me. :-)

I called the local vacuum repair guy and he told me he'd repair it for me if I insisted but that since my machine only cost about $80 (a lot of money for me) it would not be worth the $40-$50 repair. I should just buy a new vacuum (from him I assume).

My machine works great so I sat down on the floor and after removing 5 screws and a little tinkering I got my machine apart. I had to take the brush and belt area off and then the upright part came off the base. Make sure you unplug your unit before working on it.

Next I could see where the Handle Release Pedal (HRP) on the bottom of the unit had been cracked. It's a molded piece that has a slight curve in it that allows it to spring back into position to hold the vacuum in the upright position or to keep the vacuum from going totally flat.

How it was installed I don't think they meant for it to be easily replaced but after using a screw driver on one side and a letter opener on the skinnier side I pried the molded houseing out from around the HRP just enough to let the it release. I did need a third hand for that part.

Foot Pedal was knocked out of alignment
You will have to take the top loose so you can put the handle release in its place. It probably isn't in the right place, either that or a piece of it broke off and it needs to be replaced.
