Mend Hoover Upright Windtunnel Model

How do I tighten my Hoover upright windtunnel vacuum belts?

Hi,

I own a Hoover upright windtunnel model # u6401-9rm and can't seem to figure out how to tighten the smaller of the 2 belts. My brush roller won't spin untill I get this belt tightened. Any help??

I thought I had the same problem but I didn’t check the surface selector brush roll on/off..It had gotten pushed down. When I lifted up ...brushes rotate..

Is this a new belt? Sometimes the belts will look fine, but they are very stretched out and loose and need to be replaced. I also keep spare belts on hand so that I can replace them every year on my own vacuum cleaner.

If you can't find a belt locally, then check with the vacuum shop in my town, they ship out repair parts all the time. They have a web-site at www.APlusVacuum.com or call them at 704-821-3863. Ask to speak to Rocco, he's a great guy.
