Beyond Bending Tell You How
If you own a Shark Lift-Away vacuum cleaner, you know how effective it is at cleaning your floors and carpets. However, over time, the vacuum may start to lose suction power or develop other issues. Taking apart the vacuum may be necessary to clean or replace parts. In this article, we will guide you on how to take apart your Shark Lift-Away vacuum.
Step 1: Unplug the Vacuum and Remove Attachments
The first step is to unplug your Shark Lift-Away vacuum cleaner from the power source. Then, remove all attachments and accessories from the vacuum, including the hose, crevice tool, and extension wand.
Step 2: Remove the Dust Cup
The dust cup is the part of the vacuum that holds the dirt and debris. To remove the dust cup, press the release button and pull it away from the vacuum. Empty the contents of the dust cup into the trash can.
Step 3: Remove the Filters
The Shark Lift-Away vacuum has two filters: the pre-motor filter and the post-motor filter. To remove the pre-motor filter, open the filter cover on the front of the vacuum and slide the filter out. To remove the post-motor filter, press the release button and pull the filter away from the vacuum.
Step 4: Remove the Brush Roll
The brush roll is the part of the vacuum that spins and cleans your floors. To remove the brush roll, turn the vacuum over and locate the brush roll cover. Remove the cover by unscrewing the screws or pushing the release buttons. Then, remove the brush roll and clean it thoroughly.
Step 5: Clean and Inspect Parts
After you have removed all the parts, you can clean them with a damp cloth or wash them with soap and water. Inspect each part for any damage, wear, or tear. Replace any damaged parts with new ones.
Step 6: Reassemble the Vacuum
Once you have cleaned and inspected all the parts, it’s time to reassemble the vacuum. Follow the above steps in reverse order to put the vacuum back together. Make sure all parts are securely in place and all screws are tightened.
Step 7: Test the Vacuum
After reassembling the vacuum, plug it in and turn it on to test if the suction power is back to normal. If you notice any issues, repeat the above steps or consult a professional.
