The transmission needs adjusting. Just a little fine tuning. See if you can find a repairman near you, or you can contact us at 1-866-509-1952. Thanks

Kirby G5 self propel problem

There is an adjustment for the transmission and it is wrong. It could also be worn. The Kirby has an amazing warranty. See if you can get it serviced for free.

Kirby G5 gearbox clicks, why?

most of the time the small fork that comes off of the transmission and connects to the top slide wears out which doesnt allow the transmission to engage properly

Engaging belt on Kirby G5

first things first...take the powerhead off of the front of the kirby. If you look at where the powerhead connects to the front of the kirby you'll see a large hook...turn the hook using the crank on the front of the powerhead so that the belt is pulled up and away from the brushes. The hook stretches the belt so that it can fit over the fan drive.

Next, place the two "feet" of the powerhead onto the "perch" on the front of the kirby....lock it on by turning the silver lever on the top of the kirby (the one under the hood/light)

then turn the belt lever from off to on.

the G5 should have a light on the powerhead that comes on (green) if the belt is spinning the brushes. That will let you know if you've got it on correctly.

Just twist it out away from the machine. Sometimes you have to pull HARD. You can't break it.
