How to change Vacuum belt?
Hello,
I would advise you to ALWAYS to FIRST UNPLUG YOUR VACUUM before beginning any service procedure.
Not knowing the name brand or model # most vacuums belt change from the bottom or by removing the top cover to change the belt for an upright, if you have a bottom plate remove the bottom plate and remove the belt, make sure the brushroll spins free and does not have any thread or hair buildup, once that is done slide the belt onto the brushroll pulley and then stretch the belt onto the motor pulley, once on the 2 pulleys then tract the belt and replace the bottom plate – plug in and turn on to check. If you have the type where the top cover comes off it is then the same procedure listed above for the brushroll and belt. If you have a canister with a powerhead there are 2 or 3 screws on the bottom and the top cover would come off and then follow the procedure just like the upright. So if you need further assistance, please feel free to contact your local vacuum cleaner dealer in your area or in the yellow pages, or contact the factory phone number or website to further assist you with your questions.
Thanks, Don – The Vac Man

cannot take the bottom off my powermate to change the belt There are no screws just two things on each side that say insert screwdriver here. It will not lift off the bottom or top
Is there a part, that attaches to the rear area where the belt goes over, to keep it in place? When I added the new belt I pulled it over the beater bar and attached it to the rear area, but the belt continues to break when it is turned on. So I am assuming I am missing something to hold it in place in the rear area..........or not!! Welcome any suggestions. Thanks, Linda

How do I change the belt on my Hoover fold away bagless vacumn? I'm pretty sure that's what the problem is. It smells like rubber is burning.
My brush roll is not turning. I think it is the belt but do not know how to change it. Help please. Thank You and God Bless.

We are resonably sure that the pulley(s) cannot be accessed from the bottom of the unit and we can't see how the can be gotten to from the top! Again, we have an Eureka "Mega Boss" Model 4460 Type A. HELP!!!
