the two plastic caps found in the front corners
of the machine base. Using a Phillips head screwdriver
remove the screw found under each cap. |

machine:
|
|
Open
the machine by tilting back the machine body while
holding the base down. The body will pivot back
on the machines axle until it lays flat on the work
surface. You should now be able to see the interior
working parts of the machine, such as the vacuum,
pump, brush drive motor and belt. |

Using
a Phillips head screwdriver remove the 4 screws
that hold both the right and left brush retainer
covers in place. Gently pull the brush down and
away from the machine body while holding the brush

Unplug
the brush motor wiring harness by pulling plastic
connectors apart. (Pull only on plastic ends not
wire). Remove the four Phillips head screws and
two brush motor clamps that secure the motor in
place. The motor is held tightly in position by
rubber motor mounts that slide into the chassis
on both ends. To remove, grasp brush motor and pull
up and away from machine. (It may be necessary to
gently “pry” the rubber motor mounts
lose if they have become stuck in place). Pull brush
motor out and place rubber mounts on new motor.
A light spray of WD40 on the motor mounts will make
reassembly easier. Push new motor with mounts back
into position in the chassis, reconnect wire harness,
replace motor clamps and screws, place belt onto
motor pulley and slide belt limit bracket into place
to finish repair. |

Remove
plastic intercooler from top of vacuum by pulling
up and off of unit.
Unplug
the vacuum motor wiring harness by pulling plastic
connectors apart. (Pull only on plastic ends not
wire). Remove the 3 vacuum motor assembly bolts
that hold the unit in place. Gently rock the vacuum
motor back and forth until the vacuum motor foam
gasket located on its base breaks free of the
chassis. (If the vacuum motor has been in place
for quite some time the foam gasket may rip upon
motor removal. Always inspect the gasket after
removal and replace if necessary). Pull motor
up and away from the chassis to remove.
Install
new vacuum motor (with new gasket if necessary)
onto the base making sure the bolts and the holes
properly line up. When replacing vacuum motor
assembly bolts be careful not to over-tighten.
Over tightening can crush the plastic vacuum fan.
Tighten only enough to provide a good seal on
the bottom gasket. Tighten all bolts gradually
moving from bolt to bolt. Do not tighten one all
the way and then move to the next. Reconnect the
wiring harness and reinstall snorkel to complete
the repair.

the pumps wiring harness by pulling plastic connectors
apart. (Pull only on plastic ends not wire). Using
a Phillips head screwdriver remove the 4 mounting
screws that hold the pump to the chassis. Next,
loosen the hose clamps for both the inlet and outlet
hoses and pull hoses off of nylon hose barbs. (Note:
The high-pressure water hose can be very difficult
to remove from the nylon hose barb. Removal is made
easier if the hose is warmed with either a hair
dryer or a small towel made hot with water. Be careful
not to overheat.).
Before
installing new pump, lightly file or sand ridges
on both nylon hose barbs to simplify hose removal
in the future. Tighten hose clamps, replace screws
holding pump onto chassis and reconnect electrical
wiring to finish repair.
