I am having a problem with a Kirby Ultimate. It is a very powerful suction when the hose is attached, however, when the carpet brush is installed, it won't clean the carpet. The brush will spin, but I don't believe it is creating enough suction to actually pick up the dirt out of my carpet.
When you install the hose connector it trips a switch that switches the vac motor into high speed because the vac path is longer using the hose. check the belt after you remove the front. make sure the direction of rotation is in the direction of belt travel stamped in the impeller. try adjusting the head height
