Easy DIY Steps

DIY repairs are handy. They save time and money. You can do many repairs at home. Here are easy steps for Bissell vacuum maintenance. Start with the manual. It's your guide. Understand your vacuum's parts. Know how they fit together. The manual shows how to do basic repairs. First, change or clean filters. It's usually simple. Turn off and unplug the vacuum. Remove the filter. Wash or replace it. Dry it thoroughly. Then, put it back. This improves suction and efficiency.

Next, clear the brush roll. Hair and debris often gather here. Turn off and unplug the vacuum. Remove the bottom plate. Cutaway tangled hair. Pull out debris. Check the brush's bristles. Replace the brush if worn. Then, unclog the hose. Clogs reduce suction. Turn off and unplug the vacuum. Remove the hose. Look through it. If clogged, use a broom handle to push out the blockage gently. Be careful not to puncture the hose. Also, check and replace bags or bins. Don't wait until they're full. This reduces suction. For bags, have replacements ready. For bins, empty them after each use. Clean them with water. Let them dry before replacing them.

Remember to check and replace belts. Belts make brushes spin. Over time, they stretch or break. This stops the brushes. Turn off and unplug the vacuum. Access the belt area. Remove the old belt. Place the new belt as shown in the manual. Lastly, listen to your vacuum. Strange sounds can signal a problem. They often mean something's stuck or a part's worn out. Address these sounds early. Check the vacuum's parts. Replace or repair as needed.
